Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method for transmitting and receiving a downlink signal between a terminal and a base station in a wireless communication system and an apparatus for supporting same. According to an embodiment applicable to the present disclosure, when the terminal recognizes that a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and a second PDSCH are overlapped, the terminal may receive a downlink signal including the first PDSCH, under the assumption that a phase tracking reference signal (PT-RS) for the second PDSCH and the first PDSCH are overlapped.

Claims (42)

1. A method for receiving a downlink signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

obtaining, based on a random network temporary identifier (RNTI) applied to the DCI, information on that the first PDSCH and a second PDSCH overlapping the first PDSCH are transmitted to the UE; and

receiving the first PDSCH on an assumption that data is not transmitted through resources in which a resource allocated for the first PDSCH overlaps with a phase tracking reference signal (PT-RS) for the second PDSCH, based on the information.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the information is obtained based on the DCI being associated with a plurality of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states,

wherein one TCI state from among the plurality of TCI states is associated with one reference signal (RS) set.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH partially overlap each other in time and frequency domains.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving the first PDSCH includes:

receiving the first PDSCH on an assumption that the first PDSCH is punctured or rate-matched in some resources in which a resource allocated for the first PDSCH overlaps with the PT-RS.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

a time density of the PT-RS is assumed to be a default time density but not a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) scheduled for the UE.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein:

the default time density is preset to 1 or 2.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

a frequency density of the PT-RS is assumed to be a default frequency density but not a bandwidth (BW) size scheduled for the UE.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein:

the default frequency density is preset to 2.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

if a PT-RS for the first PDSCH is associated with a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port index X, it is assumed that the PT-RS is associated with a DMRS port index Y matched to the DMRS port index X,

wherein X or Y is a natural number.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein:

if a DMRS configuration type 1 is configured for the first PDSCH, an {X, Y} combination is set to any one of {#1000, #1002}, {#1001, #1003}, {#1002, #1000}, and {#1003, #1001}.

11. A user equipment (UE) configured to receive a downlink signal in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

at least radio frequency (RF) module;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory operatively connected to the at least one processor, and configured to store instructions such that the at least one processor performs specific operations by executing the instructions,

wherein the specific operations include:

controlling the at least one RF module to receive downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

obtaining, based on a random network temporary identifier (RNTI) applied to the DCI, information on that the first PDSCH and a second PDSCH overlapping the first PDSCH are transmitted to the UE; and

controlling the at least one RF module to receive the first PDSCH on an assumption that data is not transmitted through resources in which a resource allocated for the first PDSCH overlaps with a phase tracking reference signal (PT-RS) for the second PDSCH, based on the information.

12. The UE according to claim 11 , wherein:

the UE is configured to communicate with at least one of a mobile terminal, a network, or an autonomous vehicle other than a vehicle including the UE.

13. A base station (BS) configured to transmit a downlink signal in a wireless communication system, the BS comprising:

at least radio frequency (RF) module;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory operatively connected to the at least one processor, and configured to store instructions such that the at least one processor performs specific operations by executing the instructions,

wherein the specific operations include:

controlling the at least one RF module to transmit downlink control information (DCI) scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) to a user equipment (UE), wherein a random network temporary identifier (RNTI) is applied to the DCI for the UE to obtain information on that the first PDSCH and a second PDSCH overlapping the first PDSCH are transmitted to the UE; and

transmitting the first PDSCH, the second PDSCH, and a phase tracking reference signal (PT-RS) for the second PDSCH to the UE,

wherein data is not transmitted in resources in which the first PDSCH overlaps with the PT-RS based on the information.
