Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a method by a terminal transmits an uplink (UL) signal in a wireless communication system. In particular, the method comprises: determining an energy detection (ED) threshold value on the basis of maximum effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) from among at least one of pieces of first EIRP for at least one first UL signal; acquiring channel occupancy on the basis of the ED threshold value; and, within the channel occupancy, (i) transmitting the at least one first UL signal on the basis of each of at least one of pieces of first EIRP for each of the at least one first UL signal, and (ii) transmitting a second UL signal on the basis of second EIRP, wherein the second EIRP is less than or equal to the maximum EIRP.

Claims (26)

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

determining an Energy Detection (ED) threshold based on a maximum Effective Isotropic Related Power (EIRP) among at least one first EIRP for at least one first UL signal;

acquiring a channel occupancy based on the ED threshold; and

transmitting, within the channel occupancy, (i) the at least one first UL signal based on each of the at least one first EIRP for each of the at least one first UL signal and (ii) a second UL signal based on a second EIRP,

wherein the second UL signal is initiated during the channel occupancy and the second EIRP is limited to the maximum EIRP.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second UL signal is not considered in determination of the ED threshold.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein scheduling information for the at least one first UL signal is received before scheduling information for the second UL signal is received.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second EIRP is set equal to the maximum EIRP by the UE based on an EIRP indicated by a base station (BS) for the second UL signal being greater than the maximum EIRP.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the channel occupancy is acquired based on a success of Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) based on the ED threshold.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one first UL signal and the second UL signal are transmitted through UL Tx beams different from each other.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one first UL signal and the second UL signal are transmitted through frequency band of above 52.6 GHz.

8. A user equipment configured to transmit an UpLink (UL) signal in a wireless communication system, the user equipment comprising:

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory connected operably to the at least one processor and configured to store instructions for enabling the at least one processor to perform an operation when executed,

wherein the operation comprises determining an Energy Detection (ED) threshold based on a maximum Effective Isotropic Related Power (EIRP) among at least one first EIRP for at least one first UL signal, acquiring a channel occupancy based on the ED threshold, and transmitting, within the channel occupancy, (i) the at least one first UL signal based on each of the at least one first EIRP for each of the at least one first UL signal and (ii) a second UL signal based on a second EIRP and

wherein the second UL signal is initiated during the channel occupancy and the second EIRP is limited to the maximum EIRP.

9. The user equipment of claim 8 , wherein the second UL signal is not considered in determination of the ED threshold.

10. The user equipment of claim 8 , wherein scheduling information for the at least one first UL signal is received before scheduling information for the second UL signal is received.

11. The user equipment of claim 8 , wherein the second EIRP is set equal to the maximum EIRP by the user equipment based on an EIRP indicated by a base station (BS) for the second UL signal being greater than the maximum EIRP.

12. The user equipment of claim 8 , wherein the channel occupancy is acquired based on a success of Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) based on the ED threshold.

13. The user equipment of claim 8 , wherein the at least one first UL signal and the second UL signal are transmitted through UL Tx beams different from each other.

14. The user equipment of claim 8 , wherein the at least one first UL signal and the second UL signal are transmitted through frequency band of above 52.6 GHz.

15. At least one memory connected operably to at least one processor and configured to store instructions for enabling the at least one processor to perform an operation when executed,

wherein the operation comprises determining an Energy Detection (ED) threshold based on a maximum Effective Isotropic Related Power (EIRP) among at least one first EIRP for at least one first UpLink (UL) signal, acquiring a channel occupancy based on the ED threshold, and transmitting, within the channel occupancy, (i) the at least one first UL signal based on each of the at least one first EIRP for each of the at least one first UL signal and (ii) a second UL signal based on a second EIRP and

wherein the second UL signal is initiated during the channel occupancy and the second EIRP is limited to the maximum EIRP.
