A user equipment (UE) and a method performed by the same in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving a downlink (DL) signal including a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and/or a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH); and/or transmitting an uplink (UL) signal including a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and/or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), where the UE monitors the PDCCH when the UE is in active time of a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode. The method can reduce the power consumption of the UE.

Terminal device comprising; MAC layer control circuitry configured to manage a first timer for a HARQ process and a second timer for the HARQ process which starts with expiry of the first timer, and reception circuitry configured to receive a first PDCCH indicating a first transmission of a HARQ-ACK feedback for a transport block for the HARQ process and a second PDCCH indicating a second transmission of a second HARQ-ACK feedback for the transport block for the HARQ process where the second transmission occurs later than the first transmission, wherein, the MAC layer control circuitry configured to start the first timer for the HARQ process at a timing of the first transmission, the MAC layer control circuitry configured to start or restart the first timer for the HARQ process at a timing of the second transmission.

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and a device for transmitting a MAC PDU on SL-DCH in a D2D communication system, the method comprising: configuring a first counter to count a number of transmissions within a transmission period; configuring a second counter to count a number of transmission periods; keeping a Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (PDU) in a MAC entity until the first counter reaches a first maximum value and the second counter reaches a second maximum value; and transmitting the MAC PDU.

A communication method includes a first terminal device that determines first configuration information of first discontinuous reception DRX, where the first DRX controls the first terminal device to receive data on a sidelink. The first terminal device sends the first configuration information to a second terminal device, where the second terminal device is a terminal device that establishes a sidelink connection to the first terminal device. This can reduce power consumption of the terminal device.

Peer devices may wirelessly communicate with each other over a bidirectional sidelink logical channel (LCH) through an established bidirectional sidelink radio bearer. An initiating device of the peer devices may dynamically select a logical channel ID for establishing a fully bidirectional or semi-bidirectional SLRB. At least two alternative sidelink radio resource control (PC5-RRC) procedures may ensure the SLRB parameters are configured correctly in the established logical channel. The procedures also allow the network to configure a limited SLRB which is used to couple the SLRB configuration in the direction in which limited traffic (e.g. feedback information such as robust header compression feedback and/or status reports) is transmitted.

Various examples and schemes pertaining to uplink (UL) transmission timing for non-terrestrial networking (NTN) are described. An apparatus receives, from a network, downlink control information (DCI) indicating an NTN offset for a scheduling delay. Accordingly, the apparatus performs one or more UL transmissions to a satellite with the scheduling delay which accounts for the NTN offset.

A method and a user equipment (UE) for controlling Discontinuous Reception (DRX) behavior on multiple radio interfaces are provided. The method includes receiving, from a Base Station (BS), a first set of timers configured for controlling a first DRX behavior of the UE on a Uu interface to the BS; performing control channel monitoring according to the first set of timers; identifying that a Sidelink (SL) activity occurs on an SL interface that is a PC5 interface, the SL activity associated with one or more SL destinations on the PC5 interface; and starting or restarting at least one of the first set of timers in response to identifying the SL activity.

A method and apparatus for sidelink resource allocation and media access control (MAC) reset is provided. A wireless device, which is configured with network scheduled resource allocation for sidelink, sets new data indicators (NDIs) for all hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process identifiers (IDs) specific to the sidelink to value 0, based on a media access control (MAC) reset being requested by an upper layer of the wireless device.

A method for communicating data between Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices in a network (100) including multiple nodes (200, 202). The method includes starting a scan mode at a first node (200) having data to send; and determining whether data to send has been transmitted to the first node from an upstream node or a downstream node. If the data to send was received from a downstream node, the first node begins a scan mode. If the data to send was received from an upstream node, the first node begins an ADV event.

The present disclosure relates to a wireless communication system and, specifically, to a method and a device therefor, the method comprising the steps of: obtaining information on a plurality of search space sets and a plurality of groups including parts of the plurality of search space sets; obtaining information on one group for monitoring a PDCCH from among the plurality of groups; and monitoring the PDCCH on the basis of search space sets which satisfy a pre-defined condition from among search space sets corresponding to the one group, wherein the pre-defined condition includes a condition where the number of PDCCH candidates and the number of non-overlapping control channel elements (CCEs) are less than or equal to specific values.
