15 Claims

1. A communication apparatus comprising:

a transceiver that, in operation, receives downlink control information (DCI) signaling; and

a circuitry that, in operation:

obtains, from the DCI signaling, an indication that is related to a dormancy behavior of a secondary cell (Scell); and

if the indication indicates a non-dormancy behavior, determines a target BWP for performing the non-dormancy behavior in accordance with a preconfigured BWP,

wherein:

if the DCI signaling is a first DCI signaling, the indication is related to the dormancy behavior within an active time, and

if the DCI signaling is a second DCI signaling, the indication is related to the dormancy behavior outside the active time.
