Provided is a wireless communication device. A PHICH reception unit determines whether a received signal in a PHICH region is an ACK signal or a NACK signal. When doing so, the PHICH reception unit does not receive a PHICH in a subframe in which a terminal monitors an E-PDCCH. A control signal reception unit outputs a retransmission prompting signal to a signal allocation unit when the signal outputted from the PHICH reception unit is a NACK signal and when a UL grant was not detected. Meanwhile, when a UL grant was detected, the control signal reception unit outputs the detected UL grant to the signal allocation unit. The signal allocation unit maps the transmission signal in accordance with the retransmission prompting signal and the UL grant and transmits the transmission signal from a wireless transmission unit.

An example technique may include controlling receiving, by a user device from a serving cell, a first control information including a scheduling grant that identifies a resource to be used for communication between the user device and the serving cell, controlling receiving, by the user device, at least a part of a second control information from one or more other cells that are not serving the user device, and determining, by the user device, whether or not to reject the scheduling grant from the serving cell based on at least the first control information received from the serving cell and the part of the second control information received from the one or more other cells that are not serving the user device.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5.sup.th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The present disclosure provides a method of receiving downlink channel and/or downlink reference signal on an unlicensed band. An LTE user equipment (UE) receives control information of a cell operating on an unlicensed band, and receives downlink channel and/or downlink reference signal transmitted in the cell according to the control information. According to the present disclosure, data can be properly received on an unlicensed band.

The present invention is designed to measure and/or report CSI (Channel State Information) of a plurality of narrow bands, even when the band to use is limited to a partial narrow band in a system band. According to one aspect of the present invention, a user terminal, in which the band to use is limited to a partial narrow band in a system band, has a receiving section that receives information related to CSI (Channel State Information) measurement in a narrow band, a measurement section that measures CSIs in a plurality of narrow bands based on the information related to CSI measurement, and a transmission section that reports the measured CSIs.

Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, devices, systems and methods of dynamic allocation using a grant frame. For example, a wireless station may be able to generate a grant frame including a duration field and a Dynamic Allocation Info field, the Dynamic Allocation Info field including an allocation duration subfield and an access mode subfield, the access mode subfield to indicate an access mode of an allocation according to the grant frame; and to transmit the grant frame.

One or more transmission parameters for data transmission may be determined for wireless communications. A wireless device may determine transmission parameters for data transmission based on configuration associated with control signaling. For example, the transmission parameters (e.g., transmission beam, transmission power, etc.) may be determined based on a selected spatial relation, among multiple spatial relations, corresponding to a control channel.

In one aspect, a wireless device receives a scheduling grant and a grant confirmation signal indicating that a network node has performed a CCA on a carrier and is releasing the carrier for the wireless device. An uplink message is transmitted on the carrier without performing a CCA on the carrier. In another aspect, a wireless device is connected to a first cell and a second cell configured on a carrier requiring an LBT protocol. The wireless device receives configuration messages indicating that downlink transmissions on the second cell are to be scheduled. This can mean self-scheduling for downlink on the second cell and cross-carrier scheduling for uplink on the first cell. The wireless device receives a scheduling grant in the first cell and performs a CCA in the second cell. The wireless device then transmits an uplink message responsive to success of the CCA.

According to certain embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device includes transmitting, to a base station, a first transmission of a message, which includes user data and information to setup or resume a connection between the wireless device and the base station. DCI comprising an uplink grant indicating a plurality of transport block sizes is received from the base station. The DCI is interpreted based on previous information received in a message from the base station. One of the transport block sizes is selected for retransmission of the message. The message is retransmitted using the selected transport block size and includes either only the information to setup or resume the connection or the information to setup or resume the connection and user data. The message is retransmitted using the selected transport block size.

A system, apparatus and method are provided for supporting shared sessions in communication networks. The system, apparatus and method include interoperation between a User Equipment and serving nodes of a communication network. The serving nodes communicate with at least one anchor node of the communication network. In some implementations a shared session identifier and User Equipment identifying component are used to identify a User Equipment within a shared session. In some implementations, a paging notification is used to inform one or more target User Equipment that of a downlink message relating to the shared session.

A method (400) performed by a UE (600). The method includes the UE receiving (s402) a message transmitted by a base station, wherein the message comprises: i) logical channel, LCH, information identifying a LCH and ii) configured grant, CG, information identifying at least one CG configuration to which the LCH is mapped.
