METHOD FOR PROCESSING NDI IN RANDOM ACCESS PROCEDURE AND A METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING A SIGNAL USING THE SAME

摘要

A method for a user equipment (UE) to receive a downlink signal. The UE receives a first downlink assignment including a first new data indicator (NDI) from a base station. The UE compares the first NDI to a second NDI and, based on a result of the comparison, determines whether the first NDI has been toggled. The UE receives the downlink signal and processes the received downlink signal based on whether the first NDI has been determined to be toggled. Furthermore, the second NDI is included in a second downlink assignment that was previously received from the base station and was not identified by a temporary cell identifier.

1. A method for a user equipment (UE) to receive a downlink signal, the method comprising:
receiving, by the UE, a first downlink assignment including a first new data indicator (NDI) from a base station; comparing, by the UE, the first NDI to a second NDI; based on a result of the comparing, determining, by the UE, whether the first NDI has been toggled; receiving, by the UE, the downlink signal; and processing, by the UE, the received downlink signal based on whether the first NDI has been determined to be toggled, wherein the second NDI is included in a second downlink assignment that was previously received from the base station and was not identified by a temporary cell identifier.
