Abstract

A method by which a terminal transmits an uplink signal in a wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: receiving downlink control information including a power boosting indicator; determining, on the basis of the power boosting indicator, first transmission power of a first symbol to which power boosting is applied and second transmission power of a second symbol to which no power boosting is applied; and transmitting the uplink signal according to the first transmission power and the second transmission power, wherein the power boosting indicator is activated when the interval between the first symbol and the second symbol is less than or equal to a predetermined distance and the difference between the first transmission power and the second transmission is greater than or equal to a predetermined power offset.

Claims (35)

1. A method for transmitting an uplink signal by a User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving downlink control information for scheduling a first uplink signal to be transmitted on a first symbol group and a second uplink signal to be transmitted on a second symbol group, the downlink control information including a power boosting indicator;

based on the power boosting indicator, boosting a first transmission power of the first uplink signal relative to a second transmission power of the second uplink signal,

wherein the first symbol group includes at least one Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple (OFDM) symbol with Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) scheme, and the second symbol group includes at least one OFDM symbol with Orthogonal Multiple Access (OMA) scheme, and

wherein both the first symbol group and the second symbol group are included in a subframe in a time domain; and

transmitting the first uplink signal based on the boosted first transmission power and the second uplink signal based on the second transmission power.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the boosted first transmission power and the second transmission power are determined based on a plurality of power offset tables,

wherein the power boosting indicator further indicates a first power offset table used for determining the boosted first transmission power and a second power offset table used for determining the second transmission power among the plurality of the power offset tables, and

wherein a power range of the first power offset table is greater than a power range of the second power offset table.

3. The method of claim 2 ,

wherein the downlink control information further includes a single Transmission Power Control (TPC) command field, and

wherein the boosted first transmission power is selected from the first power offset table based on the TPC command field, and the second transmission power is selected from the second power offset table based on the TPC command field.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UE configures a transient period for power change between the first symbol group and the second symbol group and performs rate matching or puncturing of an uplink signal in the transient period.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein a location of the transient period is determined based on information carried on the first symbol group and the second symbol group or a transmission scheme applied to the first symbol group and the second symbol group.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

reporting, to a base station, a Power Headroom Report (PHR) on an uplink data channel or a PHR on an uplink control channel.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first uplink signal and the second uplink signal are transmitted in a self-contained subframe with a downlink control region, an uplink data region, a Guard Period (GP) for switching between transmission and reception, and an uplink control region.

8. A User Equipment (UE) for transmitting an uplink signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a receiver configured to receive downlink control information for scheduling a first uplink signal to be transmitted on a first symbol group and a second uplink signal to be transmitted on a second symbol group, the downlink control information including a power boosting indicator;

a processor configured to:

based on the power boosting indicator, boosting a first transmission power of the first uplink signal relative to a second transmission power of the second uplink signal,

wherein the first symbol group includes at least one Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple (OFDM) symbol with Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) scheme, and the second symbol group includes at least one OFDM symbol with Orthogonal Multiple Access (OMA) scheme, and

wherein both the first symbol group and the second symbol group are included in a subframe in a time domain; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the first uplink signal based on the boosted first transmission power and the second uplink signal based on the second transmission power.

9. The UE of claim 8 ,

wherein the boosted first transmission power and the second transmission power are determined based on a plurality of power offset tables,

wherein the power boosting indicator further indicates a first power offset table used for determining the boosted first transmission power and a second power offset table used for determining the second transmission power among the plurality of the power offset tables, and

wherein a power range of the first power offset table is greater than a power range of the second power offset table.

10. The UE of claim 9 ,

wherein the downlink control information further includes a single Transmission Power Control (TPC) command field, and

wherein the boosted first transmission power is selected from the first power offset table based on the TPC command field, and the second transmission power is selected from the second power offset table based on the TPC command field.

11. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to configure a transient period for power change between the first symbol group and the second symbol group and perform rate matching or puncturing of an uplink signal in the transient period.

12. The UE of claim 11 , wherein a location of the transient period is determined based on information carried on the first symbol group and the second symbol group or a transmission scheme applied to the first symbol group and the second symbol group.

13. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to report, to a base station, a Power Headroom Report (PHR) on an uplink data channel or a PHR on an uplink control channel.
