Abstract

A method for transmitting, by a terminal, a high-speed uplink signal to a base station in a wireless communication system is disclosed. Specifically, the method for transmitting a high-speed uplink signal comprises the steps of: setting a plurality of resource blocks as a resource pool for transmitting a high-speed uplink signal through an upper layer signal; selecting at least one resource block from the resource pool; and transmitting the high-speed uplink signal including a transmission block on the selected resource block to a base station, wherein the size of the transmission block is determined on the basis of the number of the selected resource blocks.

Claims (19)

1. A method for transmitting a high-speed uplink signal to an evolved node B (eNB) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

setting a plurality of resource blocks (RBs) as a resource pool for transmitting the high-speed uplink signal through a higher layer signal;

selecting one or more RBs from the resource pool;

transmitting, to the eNB, the high-speed uplink signal including a transport block (TB) on the selected one or more RBs without receiving an uplink grant from the eNB; and

receiving, from the eNB, a response signal in response to the high-speed uplink signal,

wherein a size of the TB and resources for receiving the response signal are determined based on a number of the selected one or more RBs.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising setting a number of RBs that can be selected from the resource pool through the higher layer signal.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein maximum transmission power of the high-speed uplink signal is determined based on the number of the selected one or more RBs.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more RBs are selected based on a channel quality between the UE and the eNB.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein a ratio of the size of the TB to a maximum TB size corresponding to the resource pool corresponds to a ratio of the number of the selected one or more RBs to a number of RBs included in the resource pool.

6. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a wireless communication unit configured to transmit and receive signals through a network; and

a processor configured to process the signals,

wherein the processor is configured to set a plurality of resource blocks (RBs) as a resource pool for transmitting a high-speed uplink signal through a higher layer signal, select one or more RBs from the resource pool, control the wireless communication unit to transmit the high-speed uplink signal including a transport block (TB) on the selected one or more RBs to an evolved node B (eNB) without receiving an uplink grant from the eNB, and receive a response signal in response to the high-speed uplink signal from the eNB, and

wherein a size of the TB and resources for receiving the response signal are determined based on a number of the selected one or more RBs.

7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to set a number of RBs that can be selected from the resource pool through the higher layer signal.

8. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to determine maximum transmission power of the high-speed uplink signal based on the number of the selected one or more RBs.

9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to select the one or more RBs based on a channel quality between the UE and the eNB.

10. The UE of claim 6 , wherein a ratio of the size of the TB to a maximum TB size corresponding to the resource pool corresponds to a ratio of the number of the selected one or more RBs to a number of RBs included in the resource pool.
