Title:
METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING/RECEIVING SIGNAL BY MTC UE, AND APPARATUS THEREFOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/048063
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a technology for a signal transmission/reception method by a machine type communication (MTC) UE and a base station, and an apparatus therefor. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of configuring, for each cell, a coverage improvement level for repeated signal transmitting or receiving operations of an MTC UE, and an apparatus therefor. Particularly, the present invention provides a method and an apparatus for transmitting/receiving a signal by an MTC UE, the method comprising the steps of: receiving maximum coverage improvement level information from a base station; determining a coverage improvement level value for transmitting an uplink signal on the basis of the maximum coverage improvement level information; and repeatedly transmitting, a predetermined number of times, the uplink signal according to the coverage improvement level value. Further, the present invention provides a method and an apparatus for receiving a downlink signal by the MTC UE, the method comprising the steps of: monitoring a common area and a UE-specific area which are individually configured for the MTC UE; receiving common control information or scheduling information on the common control information, through the common area; and receiving UE-specific control information or a downlink data channel (PDSCH) according to the UE-specific control information, through the UE-specific area.
