Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices and methods for initial access in a communication network. In an aspect, a terminal device receives a configuration related to a first initial uplink (UL) bandwidth part (BWP) and a second initial UL BWP from a network device. The terminal device determines the second initial UL BWP based on the configuration. The second initial UL BWP comprises a UL subband. In this way, the UL subband can be used for SBFD aware UEs during the initial access.
Claims20
A terminal device comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the terminal device to:
- receive a configuration related to a first initial uplink (UL) bandwidth part (BWP) and a second initial UL BWP;
- and
- determine the second initial UL BWP based on the configuration, wherein the second initial UL BWP comprises a UL subband.
A network device comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the network device to:
- transmit a configuration related to a first initial uplink (UL) bandwidth part (BWP) and a second initial UL BWP;
- and
- determine the second initial UL BWP based on the configuration, wherein the second initial UL BWP comprises a UL subband.
A method performed by a terminal device, comprising:
- receiving a configuration related to a first initial uplink (UL) bandwidth part (BWP) and a second initial UL BWP;
- and
- determining the second initial UL BWP based on the configuration, wherein the second initial UL BWP comprises a UL subband.
A processor for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:
- receive a configuration related to a first initial uplink (UL) bandwidth part (BWP) and a second initial UL BWP;
- and
- determine the second initial UL BWP based on the configuration, wherein the second initial UL BWP comprises a UL subband.
