Abstract

A user equipment (UE) receives UE group information indicating a first UE group to which the UE belongs, and transmits uplink (UL) data and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS), which is for demodulating the UL data, on the basis of the UE group information. The DM-RS is transmitted by means of a first uplink demodulation reference signal (UL DM-RS) resource, which corresponds to the first UE group to which the UE belongs, among a plurality of UL DM-RS resources respectively corresponding to one or more UE groups.

Claims (34)

1. A method of transmitting an uplink (UL) signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving UE group information on a first UE group to which the UE belongs; and

transmitting UL data and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) for demodulating the UL data based on the UE group information,

wherein the DM-RS is transmitted based on a first UL DM-RS resource related to the first UE group to which the UE belongs among a plurality of UL DM-RS resources respectively related to one or more UE groups,

wherein transmission power used for each of the one or more UE groups is differently configured based on priority of the each of the one or more UE groups,

wherein a power offset used for the each of the one or more UE groups is differently configured for the each of the one or more UE groups,

and wherein a first transmission power used for the UL data is determined based on a first power offset configured to the first UE group to which the UE belongs.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving sharing resource information on a time-frequency resource in which the UE is capable of attempting to perform UL access,

wherein the UL data and the DM-RS are transmitted within the time-frequency resource.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the plurality of UL DM-RS resources are distinguished by different time symbols within a slot.

4. A user equipment (UE) for transmitting an uplink (UL) signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising,

a radio frequency (RF) unit, and

a processor configured to control the RF unit, the processor configured to:

control the RF unit to receive UE group information on a first UE group to which the UE belongs; and

control the RF unit to transmit UL data and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) for demodulating the UL data based on the UE group information, and

wherein the processor is configured to control the RF unit to transmit the DM-RS based on a first UL DM RS resource related to the first UE group to which the UE belongs among a plurality of UL DM-RS resources respectively related to one or more UE groups,

wherein transmission power used for each of the one or more UE groups is differently configured based on priority of the each of the one or more UE groups,

wherein a power offset used for the each of the one or more UE groups is differently configured for the each of the one or more UE groups,

and wherein a first transmission power used for the UL data is determined based on a first power offset configured to the first UE group to which the UE belongs.

5. The UE of claim 4 ,

wherein the processor is configured to:

control the RF unit to receive sharing resource information on a time-frequency resource in which the UE is capable of attempting to perform UL access, and

control the RF unit to transmit the UL data and the DM-RS within the time-frequency resource.

6. The UE of claim 4 ,

wherein the plurality of UL DM-RS resources are distinguished by different time symbols within a slot.

7. A method of receiving an uplink (UL) signal from a user equipment (UE) by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting UE group information on a first UE group to which the UE belongs; and

receiving UL data and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) for demodulating the UL data based on the UE group information,

wherein the DM-RS is received based on a first UL DM-RS resource related to the first UE group to which the UE belongs among a plurality of UL DM-RS resources respectively related to one or more UE groups,

wherein transmission power used for each of the one or more UE groups is differently configured based on priority of the each of the one or more UE groups,

wherein a power offset used for the each of the one or more UE groups is differently configured for the each of the one or more UE groups,

and wherein a first transmission power used for the UL data is determined based on a first power offset configured to the first UE group to which the UE belongs.
