Abstract
A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes a higher layer processor configured to acquire a first radio resource control (RRC) configuration including first information for indicating a control resource set (CORESET) duration, and to acquire second RRC configuration including second information for indicating physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring symbols. The UE also includes receiving circuitry configured to monitor a PDCCH, based on the first information and the second information. The CORESET duration is set to a value larger than 1. The second information is bitmap information. Each bit of the bitmap information corresponds to a respective OFDM symbol in a slot. The bit of which value is set to 1 indicates a start of a PDCCH monitoring occasion. The bitmap information is set such that any two adjacent PDCCH monitoring occasions do not overlap with each other.
