Abstract

The present invention provides a method, performed by a user equipment (UE), for performing an action according to the type of listen before talk (LBT) in an unlicensed band, the method comprising the steps of: obtaining, from a base station, information about an LBT type and information about a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) starting position through an uplink (UL) grant; performing, on the basis of the obtained LBT type, an action according to the LBT type; and transmitting a PUSCH on the basis of the information about the PUSCH starting position after performing the action according to the LBT type, wherein the information about the PUSCH starting position indicates the position of any one of a plurality of PUSCH starting position candidates.

Claims (33)

1. A method for performing a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and comprising:

receiving a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration from a base station;

monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) during an on-duration of a DRX cycle based on the DRX configuration; and

performing the PUSCH transmission based on monitoring the PDCCH,

wherein the UE receives information for a start symbol of the PUSCH transmission,

wherein the UE performs the PUSCH transmission based on the start symbol,

wherein a cyclic prefix (CP) extension is present during a specific interval preceding the start symbol of the PUSCH transmission, and

wherein the specific interval is determined based on a value related to a subcarrier spacing.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific interval is determined further based on a value of one of 25*10{circumflex over ( )}(−6), 16*10{circumflex over ( )}(−6)+T_TA or 25*10{circumflex over ( )}(−6)+T_TA,

wherein the T_TA is a timing advance between a downlink and an uplink.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UE receives information related to a listen before transmission (LBT) type.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the information related to the LBT type is information related to a type of a channel sensing used before the UE transmits a signal.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the specific interval is determined further based on the LBT type.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the start symbol is informed based on start and length indicator value (SLIV) information.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the SLIV information informs a start symbol index of the PUSCH and a number of symbols constituting the PUSCH.

8. A user equipment (UE) comprising:

a transceiver;

a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver; and

a memory operatively coupled to the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, perform operations comprising:

receiving, through the transceiver, a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration from a base station;

monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) during an on-duration of a DRX cycle based on the DRX configuration; and

performing a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission based on monitoring the PDCCH,

wherein the UE receives information for a start symbol of the PUSCH transmission,

wherein the UE performs the PUSCH transmission based on the start symbol,

wherein a cyclic prefix (CP) extension is present during a specific interval preceding the start symbol of the PUSCH transmission, and

wherein the specific interval is determined based on a value related to a subcarrier spacing.

9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the specific interval is determined further based on a value of one of 25*10{circumflex over ( )}(−6), 16*10{circumflex over ( )}(−6)+T_TA or 25*10{circumflex over ( )}(−6)+T_TA, and

wherein the T_TA is a timing advance between a downlink and an uplink.

10. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: receiving information related to a listen before transmission (LBT) type.

11. The UE of claim 10 , wherein the information related to the LBT type is information related to a type of a channel sensing used before the UE transmits a signal.

12. The UE of claim 11 , wherein the specific interval is determined further based on the LBT type.

13. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the start symbol is informed based on start and length indicator value (SLIV) information.

14. The UE of claim 13 , wherein the SLIV information informs a start symbol index of the PUSCH and a number of symbols constituting the PUSCH.
