7. The method of claim 1 , wherein based on the comb size being 4 and the one or more OFDM symbols being 4 OFDM symbols,

(i) a frequency offset for a first OFDM symbol among the four OFDM symbols is 0;

(ii) a frequency offset for a second OFDM symbol among the four OFDM symbols is 2;

(iii) a frequency offset for a third OFDM symbol among the four OFDM symbols is 1; and

(iv) a frequency offset for a fourth OFDM symbol among the four OFDM symbols is 3.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein based on the comb size being and the one or more OFDM symbols being 8 OFDM symbols,

(i) a frequency offset for a first OFDM symbol among the 8 OFDM symbols is 0;

(ii) a frequency offset for a second OFDM symbol among the 8 OFDM symbols is 4;

(iii) a frequency offset for a third OFDM symbol among the 8 OFDM symbols is 2;

(iv) a frequency offset for a fourth OFDM symbol among the 8 OFDM symbols is 6;

(v) a frequency offset for a fifth OFDM symbol among the 8 OFDM symbols is 1;

(vi) a frequency offset for a sixth OFDM symbol among the 8 OFDM symbols is 5;

(vii) a frequency offset for a seventh OFDM symbol among the eight OFDM symbols is 3; and

(viii) a frequency offset of an eighth OFDM symbol among the eight OFDM symbols is 7.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PRS is received in two adjacent slots including the one slot, and wherein based on the comb size being 16 and one or more OFDM symbols on which the PRS is mapped in the two adjacent slots being 16 OFDM symbols,

(i) a frequency offset for a first OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 0;

(ii) a frequency offset for a second OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 8;

(iii) a frequency offset for a third OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 4;

(iv) a frequency offset for a fourth OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 12;

(v) a frequency offset for a fifth OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 2;

(vi) a frequency offset for a sixth OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 10;

(vii) the frequency offset for a seventh OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 6;

(viii) a frequency offset for an eighth OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 14;

(ix) a frequency offset for a ninth OFDM symbol among the 16 OFDM symbols is 1;
