Method and apparatus for transmitting sounding reference signal in radio communication system
Disclosed is a method for transmitting a sounding reference signal from to a base station in a radio communication system. More specifically, the method comprises the steps of: transmitting a periodic sounding reference signal to a base station; receiving a transmission instruction for an additional sounding reference signal from the base station; multiplexing said periodic sounding reference signal and said additional sounding reference signal along a frequency axis or a time axis; and transmitting said multiplexed periodic sounding reference signal and said additional sounding reference signal to said base station. Said multiplexing step is characterized by multiplexing said periodic sounding reference signal and said additional sounding reference signal along a frequency axis or a time axis.
1. A method for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) at a user equipment in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
configuring at least one parameter for the SRS by a higher layer; and
transmitting at least one of a first SRS triggered by the higher layer and a second SRS triggered by a downlink control information (DCI) to a base station, based on the at least one parameter, wherein, if both transmission of the first SRS and transmission of the second SRS are occurred in a same subframe, the second SRS is only transmitted to the base station.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein both the first SRS and the second SRS are transmitted on a last symbol of a subframe.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the DCI is received through a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control CHannel) from the base station.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first SRS is transmitted periodically to the base station.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second SRS is transmitted aperiodically to the base station.
6. A user equipment in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:
a processor for configuring at least one parameter for a sounding reference signal (SRS)by a higher layer signaling, and
a transmitting module for transmitting at least one of a first SRS triggered by the higher layer signaling and a second SRS triggered by a downlink control information (DCI) to a base station, based on the at least one parameter,
wherein, if both transmission of the first SRS and transmission of the second SRS are occurred in a same subframe, the second SRS is only transmitted to the base station.
7. The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein both the first SRS and the second SRS are transmitted on a last symbol of a subframe.
8. The user equipment according to claim 6 , further comprising a receiving module for receiving the DCI through a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control CHannel) from the base station.
9. The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the first SRS is transmitted periodically to the base station.
10. The user equipment according to claim 6 , wherein the second SRS is transmitted aperiodically to the base station.
