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, a downlink control information (DCI) format through a first component carrier of a plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment, the DCI format including:
an indicator indicating an index of an activated component carrier of the plurality of component carriers for an aperiodic SRS transmission, the index of the activated component carrier being different from an index of the first component carrier, and
a multi-bits SRS request including:
an indicator for triggering the aperiodic SRS transmission, and
aperiodic SRS configuration information to be used for the aperiodic SRS transmission on the activated component carrier, and
transmitting, to the base station, the aperiodic SRS through the activated component carrier based on:
the indicator indicating the index of the activated component carrier, and
the multi-bits SRS request.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic SRS configuration information indicate at least antenna, bandwidth, or time resource to be used for the aperiodic SRS transmission on the activated component carrier.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from the base station through the first component carrier, aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of component carriers configured for the user equipment, the aperiodic-SRS configuration information being component carrier-specifically configured.
4. The method of claim 3 , 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.
5. 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, a downlink control information (DCI) format through a first component carrier of a plurality of component carriers configured for the user equipment, the DCI format including:
an indicator indicating an index of an activated component carrier of the plurality of component carriers for an aperiodic SRS transmission, the index of the activated component carrier being different from an index of the first component carrier, and
a multi-bits SRS request including:
an indicator for triggering the aperiodic SRS transmission, and
aperiodic SRS configuration information to be used for the aperiodic SRS transmission on the activated component carrier, and
a transmitter configured to transmit, to the base station, the aperiodic SRS through the activated component carrier based on:
the indicator indicating the index of the activated component carrier, and
the multi-bits SRS request.
6. The user equipment of claim 5 , wherein the aperiodic SRS configuration information indicate at least antenna, bandwidth, or time resource to be used for the aperiodic SRS transmission on the activated component carrier.
7. The user equipment of claim 5 , wherein the receiver is further configured to receive, from the base station through the first component carrier, aperiodic-SRS configuration information on each of component carriers configured for the user equipment, the aperiodic-SRS configuration information being component carrier-specifically configured.
8. 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.
