Abstract

Disclosed in the present application is a method for transmitting and receiving signals to and from a base station by a terminal in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the method comprises the steps of: receiving, from the base station, a downlink data signal through a downlink resource of a first transmission time interval (TTI) length; and transmitting, to the base station, an uplink control signal, as a response to the downlink data signal, through an uplink resource of a second TTI length different from the first TTI length, wherein the uplink resource of the second TTI length is determined on the basis of the uplink resource of the first TTI length corresponding to the downlink resource of the first TTI length.

Claims (30)

1. A method of transmitting an uplink signal to a base station (BS) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a downlink signal from the BS on a downlink resource based on a first type of transmission time interval (TTI); and

transmitting the uplink signal related to the downlink signal to the BS on an uplink resource based on a second type of TTI,

wherein the first type of TTI is shorter than the second type of TTI,

wherein the uplink resource, which is based on the second type of TTI, is determined based on the downlink resource, which is based on the first type of TTI,

wherein a single uplink resource based on the second type of TTI corresponds to a plurality of downlink resources based on the first type of TTI, and

wherein a length of the second type of TTI is greater than twice a length of the first type of TTI.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uplink signal comprises an uplink data signal, and

wherein the downlink signal comprises a downlink control signal scheduling the uplink signal.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink signal comprises a downlink data signal, and

wherein the uplink signal comprises an uplink control signal as a response to the downlink data signal.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a starting boundary of the uplink resource, which is based on the second type of TTI, is aligned with a starting boundary of an uplink resource based on the first type of TTI.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the uplink resource based on the first type of TTI comprises an uplink resource located after a lapse of a decoding time of the downlink signal from the downlink resource, which is based on the first type of TTI.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first type of TTI and the second type of TTI comprises a short TTI.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein a resource number of the uplink resource is determined based on a resource number of the downlink resource.

8. A user equipment (UE) configured to operate in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled to the transceiver and configured to:

receive a downlink signal from a base station (BS) on a downlink resource based on a first type of transmission time interval (TTI); and

transmit an uplink signal related to the downlink signal to the BS on an uplink resource based on a second type of TTI,

wherein the first type of TTI is shorter than the second type of TTI, and

wherein the uplink resource, which is based on the second type of TTI is determined based on the downlink resource, which is based on the first type of TTI,

wherein a single uplink resource based on the second type of TTI corresponds to a plurality of downlink resources based on the first type of TTI, and

wherein a length of the second type of TTI is greater than a twice of a length of the first type of TTI.

9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the uplink signal comprises an uplink data signal, and

wherein the downlink signal is a downlink control signal scheduling the uplink signal.

10. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the downlink signal comprises a downlink data signal, and

wherein the uplink signal comprises an uplink control signal as a response to the downlink data signal.

11. The UE of claim 8 , wherein a starting boundary of the uplink resource, which is based on the second type of TTI, is aligned with a starting boundary of an uplink resource based on the first type of TTI.

12. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the uplink resource based on the first type of TTI comprises an uplink resource located after a lapse of a decoding time of the downlink signal from the downlink resource, which is based on the first type of TTI.
