Abstract

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method of decoding, by a user equipment, a downlink signal in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving rate matching pattern information indicating a rate matching resource having a repetition period from a base station; and decoding a downlink shared channel using the rate matching pattern information.

Claims (27)

1. A method of decoding a downlink signal in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), rate-matching pattern information indicating a rate-matching resource having a repetition period; and

decoding a downlink shared channel using the rate-matching pattern information,

wherein the rate-matching pattern information includes a first bitmap indicating a frequency resource region, a second bitmap indicating a time resource region, and a third bitmap indicating one or more time units in which a rate-matching resource indicated by the first bitmap and the second bitmap is configured among a plurality of time units within the repetition period.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising performing a rate matching for the rate-matching resource.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second bitmap indicates each of contiguous symbols in a predetermined resource unit.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the rate-matching pattern information is used only in a region for the downlink shared channel.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the region for the downlink shared channel is configured by a signal indicating a starting or ending symbol of the downlink shared channel.

6. A method of transmitting a downlink signal in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a base station (BS), the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), rate-matching pattern information indicating a rate-matching resource having a repetition period;

performing resource element mapping for a downlink shared channel based on the rate-matching pattern information; and

transmitting the downlink shared channel,

wherein the rate-matching pattern information includes a first bitmap indicating a frequency resource region, a second bitmap indicating a time resource region, and a third bitmap indicating one or more time units in which a rate-matching resource indicated by the first bitmap and the second bitmap is configured among a plurality of time units within the repetition period.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein a rate matching is performed for the rate-matching resource.

8. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the second bitmap indicates each of contiguous symbols in a predetermined resource unit.

9. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the rate-matching pattern information is used only in a region for the downlink shared channel.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the region for the downlink shared channel is configured by a signal indicating a starting or ending symbol of the downlink shared channel.

11. A user equipment (UE) for decoding a downlink signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transmitter and a receiver; and

a processor configured to control the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor is configured to receive rate-matching pattern information indicating a rate-matching resource having a repetition period from a base station (BS) through the receiver, and to decode a downlink shared channel using the rate-matching pattern information, and

wherein the rate-matching pattern information includes a first bitmap indicating a frequency resource region, a second bitmap indicating a time resource region, and a third bitmap indicating one or more time units in which a rate-matching resource indicated by the first bitmap and the second bitmap is configured among a plurality of time units within the repetition period.

12. A base station (BS) for transmitting a downlink signal in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

a transmitter and a receiver; and

a processor configured to control the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor is configured to transmit, to a user equipment (UE), rate-matching pattern information indicating a rate-matching resource having a repetition period, to perform resource element mapping for a downlink shared channel based on the rate-matching pattern information, and to transmit the downlink shared channel, and

wherein the rate-matching pattern information includes a first bitmap indicating a frequency resource region, a second bitmap indicating a time resource region, and a third bitmap indicating one or more time units in which a rate-matching resource indicated by the first bitmap and the second bitmap is configured among a plurality of time units within the repetition period.
