Abstract

Provided are a method and device for performing wireless communication in an unlicensed band. The method, for performing wireless communication in an unlicensed band by a terminal, may include: receiving configuration information relating to a synchronization signal block (SSB) burst set in an unlicensed band; receiving transmission interval information in which an SSB is transmitted in the SSB burst set on the basis of a listen-before-talk (LBT) result with respect to the unlicensed band; and detecting the SSB in the SSB burst set on the basis of the transmission interval information.

Claims (23)

1. A method for performing wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) in an unlicensed band, the method comprising:

receiving configuration information about a synchronization signal block (SSB) burst set in the unlicensed band;

receiving information about a transmission interval for transmitting an SSB in the SSB burst set based on a result of a listen before talk (LBT) for the unlicensed band; and

detecting the SSB in the SSB burst set based on the transmission interval information,

wherein the transmission interval information includes information about a cyclic pattern for transmitting an SSB which is not transmitted at an SSB index where the LBT fails after an SSB transmitted at an SSB index where the LBT succeeds, in the SSB burst set,

wherein the cyclic pattern information is configured based on beam configuration information related to the SSB index where the SSB is transmitted, and

wherein the beam configuration information includes quasi co-location (QCL) information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmission interval information includes an SSB index where an SSB is transmitted in the SSB burst set and is indicated via RRC signaling or RMSI.

3. A method for performing wireless communication by a base station in an unlicensed band, the method comprising:

transmitting configuration information about a synchronization signal block (SSB) burst set in the unlicensed band;

performing a listen before talk (LBT) for the SSB burst set in the unlicensed band; and

transmitting information about a transmission interval for transmitting an SSB in the SSB burst set based on a result of the LBT,

wherein the transmission interval information includes information about a cyclic pattern for transmitting an SSB which is not transmitted at an SSB index where the LBT fails after an SSB transmitted at an SSB index where the LBT succeeds, in the SSB burst set,

wherein the cyclic pattern information is configured based on beam configuration information related to the SSB index where the SSB is transmitted, and

wherein the beam configuration information includes quasi co-location (QCL) information.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the transmission interval information includes an SSB index where an SSB is transmitted in the SSB burst set and is indicated via RRC signaling or RMSI.

5. A user equipment (UE) for performing wireless communication in an unlicensed band, the UE comprising:

a receiver receiving configuration information about a synchronization signal block (SSB) burst set in the unlicensed band and receiving information about a transmission interval for transmitting an SSB in the SSB burst set based on a result of a listen before talk (LBT) for the unlicensed band; and

a controller detecting the SSB in the SSB burst set based on the transmission interval information,

wherein the transmission interval information includes information about a cyclic pattern for transmitting an SSB which is not transmitted at an SSB index where the LBT fails after an SSB transmitted at an SSB index where the LBT succeeds, in the SSB burst set,

wherein the cyclic pattern information is configured based on beam configuration information related to the SSB index where the SSB is transmitted, and

wherein the beam configuration information includes quasi co-location (QCL) information.

6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the transmission interval information includes an SSB index where an SSB is transmitted in the SSB burst set and is indicated via RRC signaling or RMSI.
