Method for transmitting an SRS-triggering-based SRS in a wireless communication system
The present invention relates to a method and terminal apparatus which involve transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS)-triggering-based SRS in a wireless communication system. The terminal apparatus of the present invention comprises a receiver which receives, from a base station, an SRS-triggering indicator for triggering an SRS transmission; and a transmitter which transmits the SRS via a preconfigured uplink subframe in accordance with the SRS-triggering indicator.
1. A method for transmitting an aperiodic Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) by a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station through a first component carrier of a plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment, aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of component carriers configured for the user equipment, the aperiodic-SRS configuration information being component carrier-specifically configured,
wherein a number of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment is determined based upon a capability of the user equipment;
receiving, from the base station, a downlink control information (DCI) format through the first component carrier, the DCI format including
a SRS triggering indicator for triggering an aperiodic SRS transmission, and
an indicator indicating an index of an activated second component carrier of the plurality of component carriers for the aperiodic SRS transmission, the index of the activated second component carrier being different from an index of the first component carrier; and
transmitting, to the base station, the aperiodic SRS through the activated second component carrier based on
the SRS triggering indicator, the indicator indicating the index of the activated second component carrier, and
aperiodic-SRS configuration information for the activated second component carrier included in the aperiodic-SRS configuration information.
2. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the aperiodic SRS is transmitted in a preconfigured subframe of the activated second component carrier, and
wherein the preconfigured subframe is a first subframe allocated to the user equipment at a time when the SRS triggering indicator is received or a second subframe allocated to the user equipment for the aperiodic SRS transmission after the first subframe.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment is received through a radio resource control (RRC) signal.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment includes information related to aperiodic SRS transmission subframes for each of the plurality of component carriers.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment includes information related to aperiodic SRS transmission bandwidths for each of the plurality of component carriers.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment includes information related to an aperiodic SRS transmission antenna for each of the plurality of component carriers.
7. A user equipment for transmitting an aperiodic Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:
a receiver configured to
receive, from a base station through a first component carrier of a plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment, aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of component carriers configured for the user equipment, the aperiodic-SRS configuration information being component carrier-specifically configured,
wherein a number of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment is determined based upon is capability of the user equipment, and
receive, from the base station, a downlink control information (DCI) format through the first component carrier, the DCI format including
a SRS triggering indicator for triggering an aperiodic SRS transmission, and
an indicator indicating an index of an activated second component carrier of the plurality of component carriers for the aperiodic SRS transmission, the index of the activated second component carrier being different from an index of the first component carrier; and
a transmitter configured to transmit, to the base station, the aperiodic SRS through the activated second component carrier based on
the SRS triggering indicator, the indicator indicating the index of the activated second component carrier, and
aperiodic-SRS configuration information for the activated second component carrier included in the aperiodic-SRS configuration information.
8. The user equipment of claim 7 ,
wherein the aperiodic SRS is transmitted in a preconfigured subframe of the activated second component carrier, and
wherein the preconfigured subframe is a first subframe allocated to the user equipment at a time when the SRS triggering indicator is received or a second subframe allocated to the user equipment for the aperiodic SRS transmission after the first subframe.
9. The user equipment of claim 7 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment is received through a radio resource control (RRC) signal.
10. The user equipment of claim 7 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment includes information related to aperiodic SRS transmission subframes for each of the plurality of component carriers.
11. The user equipment of claim 7 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment includes information related to aperiodic SRS transmission bandwidths for each of the plurality of component carriers.
12. The user equipment of claim 7 , wherein the aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of the plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment includes information related to an aperiodic SRS transmission antenna for each of the plurality of component carriers.
