Abstract
A method of a user equipment (UE) for controlling a signal. The method comprises receiving configuration information for enabling or disabling a signal transmission, receiving a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) conveying a first downlink control information (DCI) format, decoding the first DCI format, determining whether the first DCI format is correctly decoded; and transmitting the signal or suspending a transmission of the signal according to the configuration information when the first DCI format is not correctly decoded.
Claims20
A user equipment (UE) for controlling a signal, the UE comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive:
- configuration information for enabling or disabling a signal transmission;
- and
- a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) conveying a first downlink control information (DCI) format;
- and
- a decoder configured to decode the first DCI format;
- a controller configured to determine whether the first DCI format is correctly decoded;
- and
- a transmitter configured to transmit the signal or to suspend transmission of the signal according to the configuration information when the first DCI format is not correctly decoded.
A base station for controlling a signal, the base station comprising:
- an encoder configured to encode a first downlink control information (DCI) format, and
- a transmitter configured to transmit:
- a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) conveying the encoded first DCI format;
- and
- configuration information for enabling or disabling a signal transmission when the first DCI format is not correctly decoded.
