Abstract

A wireless communication method, performed by a User Equipment (UE) for Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resources, comprises receiving at least one configuration for one or more SRS resource sets; receiving a Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) indicating a SRS resource set of the one or more SRS resource sets; determining whether at least one first field and at least one second field of the MAC CE are present; deriving at least one spatial relation by using the at least one first field and the at least one second field if the at least one first field and the at least one second field are present; and transmitting at least one SRS resource among the SRS resource set via the at least one corresponding spatial relation, wherein the at least one first field and the at least one second field of the MAC CE are present at least when the SRS resource set is an aperiodic SRS resource set.

Claims (34)

1 . A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resources, the method comprising:

receiving at least one configuration for one or more SRS resource sets;

receiving a Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) indicating an SRS resource set of the one or more SRS resource sets;

determining whether at least one first field and at least one second field of the MAC CE are present;

deriving at least one spatial relation by using the at least one first field and the at least one second field if the at least one first field and the at least one second field are present; and

transmitting at least one SRS resource among the SRS resource set via the at least one corresponding spatial relation,

wherein the at least one first field and the at least one second field of the MAC CE are present at least when the SRS resource set is an aperiodic SRS resource set.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one first field indicates at least one resource index for deriving one spatial relation.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one second field indicates at least one resource type for deriving one spatial relation.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein a total number of the at least one SRS resource is the same as a total number of the at least one spatial relation.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein a total number of the at least one SRS resource is the same as a total number of the at least one first field.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein a total number of the at least one SRS resource is the same as a total number of the at least one second field.

7 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

deriving an N-th element of the at least one spatial relation by using both an N-th element of the at least one first field and an N-th element of the at least one second field.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one first field refers to a resource Identity (ID) field.

9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one second field refers to a F field.

10 . A User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system for Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resources, the UE comprising:

a processor; and

a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores a computer-executable program that when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:

receive at least one configuration for one or more SRS resource sets;

receive a Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) indicating an SRS resource set of the one or more SRS resource sets;

determine whether at least one first field and at least one second field of the MAC CE are present;

derive at least one spatial relation by using the at least one first field and the at least one second field if the at least one first field and the at least one second field are present; and

transmit at least one SRS resource among the SRS resource set via the at least one corresponding spatial relation,

wherein the at least one first field and the at least one second field of the MAC CE are present at least when the SRS resource set is an aperiodic SRS resource set.

11 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein each of the at least one first field indicates at least one resource index for deriving one spatial relation.

12 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein each of the at least one second field indicates at least one resource type for deriving one spatial relation.

13 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein a total number of the at least one SRS resource is the same as a total number of the at least one spatial relation.

14 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein a total number of the at least one SRS resource is the same as a total number of the at least one first field.

15 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein a total number of the at least one SRS resource is the same as a total number of the at least one second field.

16 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein the processor when executed by the processor, further causes the processor to:

derive an N-th element of the at least one spatial relation by using both an N-th element of the at least one first field and an N-th element of the at least one second field.

17 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein the at least one first field refers to a resource Identity (ID) field.

18 . The UE according to claim 10 , wherein the at least one second field refers to a F field.
