Patent ID: 11799589

Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) includes reception circuitry configured to receive, from a base station, first information indicating a slot format and second information indicating a maximum number of PDCCH repetition, and to monitor, based on the second information, PDCCH repetitions for a first search space set in a first CORESET, and processing circuitry configured to determine, based on the first information, whether to omit monitoring a PDCCH repetition for each PDCCH repetition among the PDCCH repetitions, wherein Downlink Control Information (DCI) is carried by the PDCCH repetition, the DCI schedules a PDSCH, and the DCI includes third information indicating a first number and forth information indicating timing of the PDSCH, and to determine, based on the third information, a first slot in which the last one PDCCH repetition of the PDCCH repetitions with the first number is located, and to determine a starting slot of a PDSCH transmission based on the forth information and the first slot.
