Abstract
To provide a communication terminal capable of suppressing an increase in power consumption of a UE during multi-subframe scheduling, a communication terminal (10) includes a monitoring unit (11) that monitors control information containing allocation information of at least one subframe where downlink data is transmitted, and a control unit (12) that determines monitoring timing to monitor the control information in accordance with a decoding result of downlink data transmitted using the at least one subframe. The monitoring unit (11) monitors the control information at the determined monitoring timing.
Claims16
A communication terminal comprising:
- at least one memory storing instructions, and
- at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to;
- monitor control information containing allocation information of at least one subframe where downlink data is transmitted;
- determine monitoring timing to monitor the control information in accordance with a decoding result of downlink data transmitted using the at least one subframe
- monitor the control information at the determined monitoring timing;
- when the control information is received, execute the instructions to suspend monitoring of the control information until the next monitoring timing;
- and
- execute the instructions to determine whether or not to resume monitoring of the control information in accordance with any one of the number of times or percentage that the downlink data has been decoded normally and the number of times or percentage that the downlink data has not been decoded normally.
A base station comprising:
- at least one memory storing instructions, and
- at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to;
- transmit, to a communication terminal, control information containing allocation information of at least one subframe to transmit downlink data;
- determine transmission timing to transmit the control information to the communication terminal in accordance with a decoding result of downlink data transmitted using the at least one subframe in the communication terminal;
- transmit the control information at the determined transmission timing;
- execute the instructions to determine transmission timing to transmit the control information to the communication terminal in accordance with any one of the number of times or percentage that the downlink data has been decoded normally and the number of times or percentage that the downlink data has not been decoded normally in the communication terminal.
A monitoring method comprising:
- monitoring control information containing allocation information of at least one subframe where downlink data is transmitted;
- determining monitoring timing to monitor the control information in accordance with a decoding result of downlink data transmitted using the at least one subframe;
- monitoring the control information at the determined monitoring timing;
- when the control information is received, execute the instructions to suspend monitoring of the control information until the next monitoring timing;
- and
- execute the instructions to determine whether or not to resume monitoring of the control information in accordance with any one of the number of times or percentage that the downlink data has been decoded normally and the number of times or percentage that the downlink data has not been decoded normally.
