Abstract

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a method of operating a user equipment (UE) for estimating a channel based on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmitted repetitively may include receiving, from a base station (BS), repetitive transmission configuration information for repetitively transmitting a PUSCH; receiving, from the BS, frequency hopping configuration information including configuration information for a hopping interval between a plurality of frequency resources for transmitting the PUSCH; and repetitively transmitting the PUSCH to the BS while performing frequency hopping at the hopping interval based on the repetitive transmission configuration information and the frequency hopping configuration information.
