Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a 5G generation or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate than a 4G communication system such as LTE. The present disclosure relates to uplink transmission in a wireless communication system, and an operating method of a terminal includes: determining a second codebook for a reference signal, based on a first codebook for data; and transmitting at least one reference signal generated by using the second codebook, and at least one data signal generated by using the first codebook.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second codebook includes more rows than the first codebook in order to provide an orthogonality or quasi-orthogonality between sequences.

7. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the active terminals are identified to be capable of transmitting data signals within a resource region among the plurality of terminals being accessing a base station, and

wherein the potentially active terminals are terminals other than the active terminals among the plurality of terminals.

8. The method of claim 1 ,
