Method and device for configuring resource unit for transmitting uplink signal by NB-IoT UE
Provided is a method for transmitting an uplink signal by a NarrowBand IoT (Internet of Things) UE and a device therefor. The method may include: receiving downlink data from a base station; generating HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information related to the downlink data; and transmitting the HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information to the base station through a Narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH), wherein the NPUSCH is mapped to a resource unit configured by M subcarriers and K slots.
1. A method for transmitting an uplink signal by a NarrowBand Internet of things (IoT) user equipment (UE) comprising:
receiving downlink data from a base station;
generating hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) ACK/NACK feedback information related to the downlink data; and
transmitting the HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information to the base station through a resource unit of a NarrowBand Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH),
wherein the resource unit of the NPUSCH is made up of M subcarriers and K slots, where K is determined as 2 n where M and n are natural numbers,
wherein the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have one of a first subcarrier spacing and a second subcarrier spacing, and
wherein when HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information is transmitted through the NPUSCH, values of M and K when the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have the first subcarrier spacing are the same as values of M and K when the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have the second subcarrier spacing.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second subcarrier spacing is configured to be four times as large as the first subcarrier spacing.
3. A method for receiving an uplink signal by a base station, comprising:
transmitting downlink data to a NarrowBand IoT (Internet of Things) user equipment (UE); and
receiving hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) ACK/NACK feedback information related to the downlink data through a resource unit of a Narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH)
wherein the resource unit of the NPUSCH is made up of M subcarriers and K slots, where K is determined as 2 n where M and n are natural numbers,
wherein the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have one of a first subcarrier spacing and a second subcarrier spacing, and
wherein when HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information is transmitted through the NPUSCH, values of M and K when the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have the first subcarrier spacing are the same as values of M and K when the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have the second subcarrier spacing.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the information for configuring the subcarrier spacing is included in random access response information to be transmitted.
5. A NarrowBand Internet of things (IoT) user equipment (UE) for transmitting an uplink signal, the NarrowBand IoT UE comprising:
a receiver configured to receive downlink data from a base station;
a controller configured to generate hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) ACK/NACK feedback information related to the downlink data; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information to the base station through a resource unit of a Narrowband Physical Uplink Shared Channel (NPUSCH),
wherein the resource unit of the NPUSCH is made up of M subcarriers and K slots, where K is determined as 2 n where M and n are natural numbers,
wherein the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have one of a first subcarrier spacing and a second subcarrier spacing, and
wherein when HARQ ACK/NACK feedback information is transmitted through the NPUSCH, values of M and K when the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have the first subcarrier spacing are the same as values of M and K when the NarrowBand IoT UE is configured to have the second subcarrier spacing.
6. The NarrowBand IoT UE of claim 5 , wherein the second subcarrier spacing is configured to be four times as large as the first subcarrier spacing.
