Abstract

An embodiment is a method for a user equipment (UE) to transmit a phase-tracking reference signal (PTRS) related to sidelink in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of: generating demodulation reference signals (DMRSs) related to a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH); generating a PTRS related to the PSSCH; and transmitting the PTRS and at least a portion of the DMRSs, wherein a DMRS sequence mapped to a prescribed position in a first PSSCH symbol in which the DMRSs are transmitted is used for generating the PTRS, and the prescribed position corresponds to a frequency location at which the PTRS is transmitted and includes a frequency location at which the generated DMRSs are not transmitted.

Claims (42)

1. A method of transmitting a phase-tracking reference signal (PTRS) related to sidelink by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

generating a demodulation reference signals (DMRS) related to a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH);

generating the PTRS related to the PSSCH; and

transmitting at least a portion of the DMRS and the PTRS,

wherein:

a DMRS sequence mapped to a predetermined position in a first PSSCH symbol in which the DMRS is transmitted is used to generate the PTRS;

the predetermined position corresponds to a frequency position at which the PTRS is transmitted; and

the predetermined position includes a frequency position at which transmission of the generated DMRS is skipped.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on that a resource region of a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) entirely overlaps with a resource region of the PSSCH, the first PSSCH symbol in which the DMRS is transmitted is a symbol in which the DMRS is transmitted first after the resource region of the PSCCH.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PSSCH and the PSCCH are frequency division multiplexed (FDM) in a time axis corresponding to the first PSSCH symbol.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the frequency position is a subcarrier.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmission of the PTRS is skipped when the PTRS overlaps with a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH).

6. A user equipment (UE) for transmitting a phase-tracking reference signal (PTRS) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operatively connected to the at least one processor and configured to store commands for allowing the at least one processor to perform operations when being executed,

wherein the operations includes:

generating a demodulation reference signals (DMRS) related to a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH);

generating the PTRS related to the PSSCH; and

transmitting at least a portion of the DMRS and the PTRS,

wherein a DMRS sequence mapped to a predetermined position in a first PSSCH symbol in which the DMRS is transmitted is used to generate the PTRS,

the predetermined position corresponds to a frequency position at which the PTRS is transmitted, and

the predetermined position includes a frequency position at which transmission of the generated DMRS is skipped.

7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the frequency position at which transmission of the generated DMRS is skipped overlaps with a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH).

8. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the PSSCH and the PSCCH are frequency division multiplexed (FDM) in a time axis corresponding to the first PSSCH symbol.

9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the frequency position is a subcarrier.

10. The UE of claim 6 , wherein transmission of the PTRS is skipped when the PTRS overlaps with a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH).

11. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the UE communicates with at least one of another UE, a UE related to autonomous driving vehicle, a base station (BS), or a network.

12. A processor for performing operations for a user equipment (UE) for transmitting a phase-tracking reference signal (PTRS) in a wireless communication system, the operations comprising:

wherein the operations includes:

generating a demodulation reference signals (DMRS) related to a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH);

generating the PTRS related to the PSSCH; and

transmitting at least a portion of the DMRS and the PTRS,

wherein a DMRS sequence mapped to a predetermined position in a first PSSCH symbol in which the DMRS is transmitted is used to generate the PTRS,

the predetermined position corresponds to a frequency position at which the PTRS is transmitted, and

the predetermined position includes a frequency position at which transmission of the generated DMRS is skipped.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium for storing at least one computer program including a command for allowing at least one processor to perform operations of a user equipment (UE) when being executed by the at least one processor, the operations comprising:

generating a demodulation reference signals (DMRS) related to a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH);

generating a phase-tracking reference signal (PTRS) related to the PSSCH; and

transmitting at least a portion of the DMRS and the PTRS,

wherein a DMRS sequence mapped to a predetermined position in a first PSSCH symbol in which the DMRS is transmitted is used to generate the PTRS,

the predetermined position corresponds to a frequency position at which the PTRS is transmitted, and

the predetermined position includes a frequency position at which transmission of the generated DMRS is skipped.
