Abstract

An uplink transmission method performed by a terminal includes: receiving, from a base station, at least one DCI for allocating first uplink transmission and second uplink transmission; performing a first LBT procedure for the first uplink transmission, and performing the first uplink transmission when the first LBT procedure is successful; and performing a second LBT procedure for the second uplink transmission, and performing the second uplink transmission when the second LBT procedure is successful, wherein the first uplink transmission and the second uplink transmission are consecutively performed with a time interval longer than a predetermined time.

Claims (13)

1. An uplink transmission method performed by a terminal, the uplink transmission method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, at least one downlink control information (DCI) for allocating first uplink transmission and second uplink transmission;

performing a first listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure for the first uplink transmission according to a scheme of the first LBT procedure indicated by the at least one DCI, and performing the first uplink transmission when the first LBT procedure is successful; and

determining a gap between the first uplink transmission and the second uplink transmission;

in response to determining that the gap is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, performing the second uplink transmission after applying cyclic prefix (CP) extension for the second uplink transmission; and

in response to determining that the gap is smaller than the predetermined value, performing the second uplink transmission without applying CP extension for the second uplink transmission,

wherein the at least one DCI is one DCI for allocating both the first uplink transmission and the second uplink transmission, the first uplink transmission is transmission of a PUSCH or PUCCH, and the second uplink transmission is transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS).

2. The uplink transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the scheme of the first LBT procedure is a type 1 channel access scheme or a type 2/2A/2B/2C channel access scheme.

3. The uplink transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one DCI further includes information on a length value of the CP extension, and/or a channel access priority class of the first uplink transmission.

4. The uplink transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one DCI does not indicate a scheme of the second LBT procedure for the second uplink transmission.

5. The uplink transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the second LBT procedure is performed only on a first symbol of a resource for transmitting the SRS.

6. The uplink transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein when the second uplink transmission is present within a channel occupancy time (COT) secured by the base station, the second LBT procedure is performed by a type 2/2A channel access scheme, and when the second uplink transmission is present outside the COT secured by the base station, the second LBT procedure is performed by a type 1 channel access scheme.

7. The uplink transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein when the second LBT procedure fails, the entire SRS is not transmitted.
