Abstract
The present invention is designed so that DL controls channels are monitored adequately even when the unit of scheduling in the time direction is subject to control. According to the present invention, a user terminal monitors a downlink (DL) control channel and receives downlink control information (DCI), and this user terminal has a receiving section that receives time interval information, which shows a time interval for monitoring the DL control channel, and a control section that controls monitoring of the DL control channel based on the time interval information.
Claims7
A terminal comprising:
- a receiver that receives time interval information that indicates a time interval for monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and downlink control information, formatted in a downlink control information format, that includes blank resource information that indicates a blank resource;
- and
- a processor that controls rate matching of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) based on the time interval information, the downlink control information format, and the blank resource information in the downlink control information,
- wherein the blank resource is a resource for the PDCCH,
- wherein a time interval in which the PDCCH is transmitted is different from the time interval in which the PDCCH is monitored, and
- the processor assumes that the PDSCH is not mapped to the blank resource.
