Abstract

A terminal and a method performed by the terminal are provided for use in a wireless communication system. The method includes receiving configuration information associated with a sounding reference signal (SRS) through higher layer signaling; receiving first DL control information (DCI); and transmitting, based on the first DCI, the SRS in an available slot from a reference slot.

Claims (36)

1. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving configuration information associated with a sounding reference signal (SRS) by higher layer signaling;

receiving, in slot n, downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS; and

transmitting, based on the configuration information and the DCI, the SRS in an available slot from a reference slot,

wherein the configuration information includes an offset (X) for indicating the reference slot and at least one candidate value for the available slot, and

wherein the reference slot corresponds to slot n+X.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the available slot corresponds to a u-th available slot.

3. A terminal in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transceiver; and

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

receive configuration information associated with a sounding reference signal (SRS) by higher layer signaling,

receive, in slot n, downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS, and

transmit, based on the configuration information and the DCI, the SRS in an available slot from a reference slot,

wherein the configuration information includes an offset (X) for indicating the reference slot and at least one candidate value for the available slot, and

wherein the reference slot corresponds to slot n+X.

4. The terminal of claim 3 , wherein the available slot corresponds to a u-th available slot.

5. A method performed by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a terminal, configuration information associated with a sounding reference signal (SRS) by higher layer signaling;

transmitting, in slot n, downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS; and

receiving, based on the configuration information and the DCI, the SRS in an available slot from a reference slot,

wherein the configuration information includes an offset (X) for indicating the reference slot and at least one candidate value for the available slot, and

wherein the reference slot corresponds to slot n+X.

6. A base station (BS), in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

a transceiver; and

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

transmit, to a terminal, configuration information associated with a sounding reference signal (SRS) by higher layer signaling;

transmit, in slot n, downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS; and

receive, based on the configuration information and the DCI, the SRS in an available slot from a reference slot,

wherein the configuration information includes an offset (X) for indicating the reference slot and at least one candidate value for the available slot, and

wherein the reference slot corresponds to slot n+X.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI includes an offset indicator to indicate the available slot among the at least one candidate value.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein a bit number of the offset indicator is determined based on a number of the at least one candidate value.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a UE capability associated with the available slot.

10. The terminal of claim 3 , wherein the DCI includes an offset indicator to indicate the available slot among the at least one candidate value.

11. The terminal of claim 10 , wherein a bit number of the offset indicator is determined based on a number of the at least one candidate value.

12. The terminal of claim 3 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to transmit a UE capability associated with the available slot.
