A receiver configured to receive first information on a configuration of a demodulation reference signal via higher layer signaling and receive downlink control information including second information on transmission of the demodulation reference signal via a physical downlink control channel, and a transmitter configured to transmit the demodulation reference signal and uplink data are included. The transmitter transmits the demodulation reference signal and the uplink data by using a same OFDM symbol based on at least the first information and the second information.

Terminal apparatus and base station apparatus

A terminal apparatus includes a control information detection unit configured to detect first and second DCI, and a transmitter configured to perform UL data transmission based on the first DCI or cancel a resource allocated in the second DCI. A UL grant using the first DCI is detected, when performing UL data transmission based on the UL grant, after the data transmission, a first timer for a corresponding HARQ process is started and a second timer is stopped, and when the first timer expires, the second timer for a HARQ process is started. When cancellation of the UL data transmission using the second DCI is detected, at a timing for the data transmission canceled, the second timer is restarted in a case that the first timer expires and the second timer is running, and the second timer is started in a case that the second timer is not running.

Terminal apparatus

A base station apparatus controls an access scheme for each radio resource by using higher layer signaling such that only signals generated by a same type of a signal generation method are multiplexed for each radio resource.

Communication apparatus

Proper use of a sparse code prevents PAPR performance from improperly degrading.

A terminal apparatus includes a transmitter configured to transmit PUSCH data and a receiver configured to receive RRC information. The transmitter transmits the PUSCH data by using a resource associated with an HARQ process ID determined by symbol information for transmission of the PUSCH data, a period, and the number of HARQ processes. In a case that the receiver receives no response to the transmission of the PUSCH data with the HARQ process ID after the transmission of the PUSCH data is performed and before a timer included in the RRC information expires, the transmitter transmits new PUSCH data by using the resource associated with the HARQ process ID determined by the symbol information for the transmission of the PUSCH data, the period, and the number of HARQ processes.

Terminal apparatus and communication method

A base station apparatus receives an uplink shared channel and a reference signal, the uplink shared channel including uplink data, an identifier of a terminal apparatus that has transmitted the uplink data, a first CRC generated from the identifier bits, and a second CRC generated from the uplink data bits. In a case that an error is detected based on the first CRC, the base station apparatus transmits a first NACK by using a control signal associated with the reference signal sequence. In a case that an error is detected based on the second CRC, the base station apparatus transmits a second NACK by using a control signal associated with the identifier indicating the terminal apparatus.

In a case that the CQI table applied to interpret the CSI report is changed from the second CQI table to a third CQI table including modulation schemes up to 1024QAM, only the information on the CQI table selection indicating applicability of the third CQI table is transmitted.

Base station apparatus, terminal apparatus, and communication method therefor

To improve throughput in a communication environment in which a large number of terminal apparatuses access, a receiver receives information indicating whether a radio resource allocated by a base station apparatus is a grant free access resource or a scheduled access resource, as well as transmission power control information in the scheduled access resource and transmission power control information in the grant free access resource; and a transmitter configured to transmit a transmission signal to the base station apparatus. In a case of communicating by using the scheduled access resource, a transmission power control is performed based on the first transmission power control information to transmit the transmission signal. In a case of communicating by using the grant-free access resource, the transmission power control is performed based on the second transmission power control information to transmit the transmission signal.

Base station, terminal apparatus, and communication method with semi-static first control information and dynamic allocation second control information

In a case that a large number of terminal apparatuses that are accommodated by contention-based radio communication technologies share a frequency resource, the number of data signals of the terminal apparatus that are non-orthogonally multiplexed in the spatial domain increases. If terminal apparatuses, of which the number exceeds the number of receive antennas or the spreading factor transmit uplink data at the same time, it is tantamount to a presence of terminal apparatuses using the same spreading code, and inter-user interference becomes a problem. A transmitter for transmitting a data signal to a receiver, includes a transmission processing unit configured to transmit the data signal without receiving control information to permit transmission (UL grant) transmitted by the receiver; a spreading unit configured to spread the data signal; and a transmit power control unit capable of switching a plurality of methods of controlling transmit power of the data signal, wherein the methods of controlling transmit power are switched in accordance with at least one of a spreading factor or a sequence of spreading codes used by the spreading unit for spreading the data signal.
