Abstract

A method for a terminal performing transmission using a grant-free resource in a wireless communication system is a method for transmitting/receiving a signal associated with a grant-free resource, the method comprising the steps of: generating uplink control information (UCI); and transmitting at least one among the generated UCI and data, wherein the transmission of at least one among the UCI and the data is dropped or delayed according to a correlation between the time point at which the UCI was generated and the position of the grant-free resource on a time axis.

Claims (22)

1. A method for performing transmission by a terminal using a grant-free resource in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

generating uplink control information (UCI); and

transmitting at least one of the generated UCI and data;

wherein one or both of the UCI and the data are dropped or postponed according to a relationship between a time at which the UCI is generated and a time-domain position of the grant-free resource,

based on the time at which the UCI is generated being after an end time of the grant-free resource, the UCI or the data is dropped, and

wherein when the UCI corresponds to a latency requirement shorter than a preset value and there is no available resource within the latency requirement, the terminal drops the UCI.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when the time at which the UCI is generated is before a start time of the grant-free resource, the terminal drops transmission of one of the UCI and the data according to a service associated with the data.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when the time at which the UCI is generated is within a time interval of the grant-free resource, the terminal drops transmission of one of the UCI and the data according to a service associated with the data in a next repeated transmission within the grant-free resource.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the terminal transmits the non-dropped UCI or data in a next grant-free transmission.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when the UCI corresponds to a latency requirement longer than a preset value, the terminal postpones transmission of the UCI.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein, when the UCI corresponds to the latency requirement longer than the preset value and there is no available resource within the preset time, the terminal drops transmission of the UCI.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when the terminal drops transmission of the user data for transmission of the UCI, the dropped data is transmitted in a next available resource.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the next available resource is a next transmission occasion for repetition of the dropped PUSCH.

9. A terminal for performing transmission using a grant-free resource in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transmitter and a receiver; and

a processor,

wherein the processor is configured to:

generate uplink control information (UCI); and

transmit at least one of the generated UCI and data;

wherein one or both of the UCI and the data are dropped or postponed according to a relationship between a time at which the UCI is generated and a time-domain position of the grant-free resource,

based on the time at which the UCI is generated being after an end time of the grant-free resource, the UCI or the data is dropped, and

wherein when the UCI corresponds to a latency requirement shorter than a preset value and there is no available resource within the latency requirement, the terminal drops the UCI.
