Abstract

Disclosed is a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G communication system, such as LTE, and subsequent systems, and a method for transmitting an uplink control signal in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: transmitting information indicating a first frequency domain to which an uplink control signal is transmitted from a base station, which has determined to perform full-duplex based communication; and performing downlink reception through the remaining frequency domains excluding the first frequency domain.

Claims (58)

1. A method for downlink (DL) reception in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), notification of a full-duplex communication;

receiving DL control information (DCI) including scheduling information;

obtaining offset information from the DCI, the obtained offset information indicating a first frequency band on which an uplink (UL) control signal is transmitted;

identifying a second frequency band based on the offset information, the second frequency band being a remaining frequency band except for the first frequency band;

transmitting the UL control signal through the first frequency band in a subframe; and

performing the DL reception through the second frequency band in the subframe.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising obtaining the offset information indicating the first frequency band from a master information block (MIB) received from the BS.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving configuration information for configuring the UL control signal and the DL control signal such that the UL control signal and the DL control signal are transmitted and received through different frequency bands, if the wireless communication system uses at least two frequency bands.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a control signal of an UL shared channel through the first frequency band, if receiving transfer information instructing transmission of a control signal of the UL shared channel from the BS through the first frequency band.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a format of the UL control signal that punctures a resource region where a DL control signal received from the BS is received, in case of full-duplex communication; and

generating the UL control signal corresponding to the format and transmitting the UL control signal to the BS.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising,

estimating an amount of the resource region; and

transmitting, to the BS, symbols other than some symbols of the UL control signal corresponding to the estimated of the resource region,

wherein the format differs with a type of the UL control signal.

7. A method for downlink (DL) transmission in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), notification of a full-duplex communication;

transmitting, to the UE, DL control information (DCI) including scheduling information and offset information indicating a first frequency band on which a uplink (UL) control signal is transmitted;

receiving, from the UE, the UL control signal through the first frequency band in a subframe; and

performing the DL transmission through a remaining frequency band except for the first frequency band in the subframe.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the offset information indicating the first frequency band is identified from a master information block (MIB).

9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising configuring the UL control signal and the DL control signal such that the UL control signal and the DL control signal are transmitted and received through different frequency bands, if the wireless communication system uses at least two frequency bands.

10. The method of claim 7 , further comprising transmitting transfer information instructing transmission of a control signal of a UL shared channel through the first frequency band.

11. A user equipment (UE) for downlink (DL) reception in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor configured to:

control the transceiver to receive, from a base station (BS), notification of a full-duplex communication;

control the transceiver to receive DL control information (DCI) including scheduling information;

obtain offset information from the DCI, the obtained offset information indicating a first frequency band on which an uplink (UL) control signal is transmitted;

identifying a second frequency band based on the offset information, the second frequency band being a remaining frequency band except for the first frequency band;

control the transceiver to transmit the UL control signal through the first frequency band in a subframe; and

control the transceiver to perform the DL reception through the second frequency band in the subframe.

12. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to obtain the offset information indicating the first frequency band from a master information block (MIB) received from the BS.

13. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

control the transceiver to receive configuration information for configuring the UL control signal and the DL control signal such that the UL control signal and the DL control signal are transmitted and received through different frequency bands, if the wireless communication system uses at least two frequency bands.

14. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

control the transceiver to transmit a control signal of an UL shared channel through the first frequency band, if receiving transfer information instructing transmission of a control signal of the UL shared channel from the BS through the first frequency band.

15. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine a format of the UL control signal that punctures a resource region where a DL control signal received from the BS is received, in case of full-duplex communication, and

generate the UL control signal corresponding to the format and transmitting the UL control signal to the BS.

16. The UE of claim 15 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

estimate an amount of the resource region, and

control the transceiver to transmit, to the BS, symbols other than some symbols of the UL control signal corresponding to the estimated amount of the resource region,

wherein the format differs with a type of the UL control signal.

17. A base station (BS) for downlink (DL) transmission in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

a transceiver; and

a processor configured to:

control the transceiver to transmit, to a user equipment (UE), notification of a full-duplex communication;

control the transceiver to transmit, to the UE, DL control information (DCI) including scheduling information and offset information indicating a first frequency band on which a uplink (UL) control signal is transmitted;

control the transceiver to receive the UL control signal through the first frequency band in a subframe; and

control the transceiver to perform the DL transmission through a remaining frequency band except for the first frequency band in the subframe.

18. The BS of claim 17 , wherein the offset information indicating the first frequency band is identified from a master information block (MIB).

19. The BS of claim 17 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

configure the UL control signal and the DL control signal such that the UL control signal and the DL control signal are transmitted and received through different frequency bands, if the wireless communication system uses at least two frequency bands.

20. The BS of claim 17 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

control the transceiver to transfer information instructing transmission of a control signal of a UL shared channel through the first frequency band.
