Method and apparatus for transmitting sounding reference signal in radio communication system
Disclosed is a method for transmitting a sounding reference signal from a terminal to a base station in a radio communication system. More specifically, the method comprises the steps of: receiving downlink control information from a base station; checking a flag bit included in said downlink control information; checking an interpretation bit is included in said downlink control information, when said flag bit indicates an uplink; and transmitting an additional sounding reference signal and/or an uplink common channel based on said interpretation bit.
1. A method for transmitting sounding reference signals by a user equipment in a radio communication system, comprising:
receiving downlink control information from a base station;
checking a flag bit included in the downlink control information;
checking an interpretation bit included in the downlink control information if the flag bit indicates uplink; and
performing at least one of transmission of an additional sounding reference signal or transmission of an uplink shared channel based on the interpretation bit.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the downlink control information is a format 0 or format 1a.
3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising performing reception of a downlink shared channel if the flag bit indicates downlink.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the size of the interpretation bit is 1 bit or 2 bits.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission of the uplink shared channel and the reception of the downlink shared channel are performed via a single antenna.
6. A method for transmitting sounding reference signals by a user equipment in a radio communication system, comprising:
receiving downlink control information defined in a legacy system along with downlink control information for uplink multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission from a base station;
performing transmission of an uplink shared channel in an uplink MIMO mode;
checking a flag bit included in the downlink control information defined in the legacy system;
checking an interpretation bit included in the downlink control information defined in the legacy system if the flag bit indicates uplink; and
performing transmission of an additional sounding reference signal based on the interpretation bit.
7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising performing reception of a downlink shared channel using a single antenna if the flag bit indicates downlink.
8. A user equipment in a radio communication system, comprising:
a reception module configured to receive downlink control information from a base station;
a processor configured to check a flag bit included in the downlink control information and to check an interpretation bit included in the downlink control information if the flag bit indicates uplink; and
a transmission module configured to perform at least one of transmission of an additional sounding reference signal or transmission of an uplink shared channel based on the interpretation bit.
9. The user equipment according to claim 8 , wherein the downlink control information is a format 0 or format 1a.
10. The user equipment according to claim 8 , wherein the reception module performs reception of a downlink shared channel if the flag bit indicates downlink.
11. The user equipment according to claim 8 , wherein the size of the interpretation bit is 1 bit or 2 bits.
12. The user equipment according to claim 8 , wherein the transmission of the uplink shared channel and the reception of the downlink shared channel are performed via a single antenna.
13. A user equipment in a radio communication system, comprising:
a reception module configured to receive downlink control information defined in a legacy system along with downlink control information for uplink multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission from a base station;
a transmission module configured to perform transmission of an uplink shared channel in an uplink MIMO mode; and
a processor configured to check a flag bit included in the downlink control information defined in the legacy system and to check an interpretation bit included in the downlink control information defined in the legacy system if the flag bit indicates uplink,
wherein the transmission module performs transmission of an additional sounding reference signal based on the interpretation bit.
14. The user equipment according to claim 13 , wherein the reception module performs reception of a downlink shared channel using a single antenna if the flag bit indicates downlink.
