Abstract
To appropriately control CSI reporting even in a case of performing CSI reporting by employing a method different from ones for existing LTE systems, one aspect of a user terminal of the present invention includes a transmitting section that transmits channel state information, and a control section that controls transmission of the channel state information by using certain downlink control information indicating trigger and/or activation of channel state information without scheduling data.
Claims9
A terminal comprising:
- a receiver that receives downlink control information (DCI);
- and
- a processor that determines, based on a field included in the DCI, whether the DCI is a first DCI that indicates transmission of an uplink data using uplink shared channel, or is a second DCI that indicates at least one of triggering and activation of channel state information reporting, using the uplink shared channel without transmission of the uplink data,
- wherein regardless of whether the processor determines that the DCI is the first DCI or determines that the DCI is the second DCI, a same RNTI is used in a CRC mask of the DCI,
- wherein a search space for the first DCI and a search space for the second DCI are set to be same, and
- wherein the processor performs the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a first value, and performs a transmission of the channel state information without performing the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a second value.
A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:
- receiving downlink control information (DCI);
- and
- determining, based on a field included in the DCI, whether the DCI is a first DCI that indicates transmission of an uplink data using uplink shared channel, or is a second DCI that indicates at least one of triggering and activation of channel state information reporting, using the uplink shared channel without transmission of the uplink data,
- wherein regardless of whether the terminal determines that the DCI is the first DCI or determines that the DCI is the second DCI, a same RNTI is used in a CRC mask of the DCI,
- wherein a search space for the first DCI and a search space for the second DCI are set to be same, and
- wherein the terminal performs the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a first value, and performs a transmission of the channel state information without performing the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a second value.
A base station comprising:
- a processor that controls to include a field in downlink control information (DCI) to determine whether the DCI is a first DCI that indicates transmission of an uplink data using uplink shared channel, or is a second DCI that indicates at least one of triggering and activation of channel state information reporting, using the uplink shared channel without transmission of the uplink data;
- and
- a transmitter that transmits the DCI,
- wherein regardless of whether the processor determines that the DCI is the first DCI or determines that the DCI is the second DCI, a same RNTI is used in a CRC mask of the DCI,
- wherein a search space for the first DCI and a search space for the second DCI are set to be same, and
- wherein the processor controls to perform the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a first value, and perform a transmission of the channel state information without performing the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a second value.
A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein
- the terminal comprises:
- a receiver that receives downlink control information (DCI);
- and
- a processor of the terminal that determines, based on a field included in the DCI, whether the DCI is a first DCI that indicates transmission of an uplink data using uplink shared channel, or is a second DCI that indicates at least one of triggering and activation of channel state information reporting, using the uplink shared channel without transmission of the uplink data,
- wherein regardless of whether the processor determines that the DCI is the first DCI or determines that the DCI is the second DCI, a same RNTI is used in a CRC mask of the DCI,
- wherein a search space for the first DCI and a search space for the second DCI are set to be same, and
- wherein the processor of the terminal performs the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a first value, and performs a transmission of the channel state information without performing the transmission of the uplink data when the field is a second value, and
- the base station comprises:
- a processor of the base station that controls to include the field in the DCI to determine whether the DCI is the first DCI or the second DCI;
- and
- a transmitter that transmits the DCI.
