Abstract

A method and a device for transmitting and receiving signals in a wireless communication system, according to an embodiment of the present invention, are configured to set an REG-interlace consisting of M RBs and N symbols for PUCCH transmission, and select a minimum number of symbols (N min ) required for the PUCCH transmission from among the N symbols, on the basis of an actual UCI payload size required for the PUCCH transmission being smaller than the maximum UCI payload size that can be transmitted through a PUCCH resource, to thereby transmit the PUCCH.

Claims (22)

1. A method of transmitting and receiving a signal by a communication device in a wireless communication system, the method including:

configuring an interlace including M resource blocks (RBs) and N symbols for transmission of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH); and

based on that an actual uplink control information (UCI) payload size required for the PUCCH transmission is smaller than a maximum UCI payload size capable of being transmitted on a PUCCH resource, transmitting the PUCCH by selecting a minimum number (N min ) of symbols required for the PUCCH transmission among the N symbols,

wherein the minimum number of symbols are selected to be adjacent to a location of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) symbols, and

wherein transmission of DMRS symbols not located first in a time domain among the DMRS symbols adjacent to the minimum number of symbols is dropped.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the maximum UCI payload size is calculated based on M×N×N_SC×Qm×R_max, where N_SC denotes a number of subcarriers for each RB, Qm denotes a parameter configured based on a modulation scheme, and R_max denotes a maximum UCI coding rate, and wherein the communication device selects N min as a minimum value of N satisfying that the maximum UCI payload size is greater than or equal to the actual UCI payload size.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication device selects N min by dropping transmission from a symbol located last in a time domain among the N symbols.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication device selects N min while M is unchanged.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication device reduces the M RBs for the PUCCH transmission to a threshold (M th ), and wherein the communication device selects N min based on that the actual UCI payload size is smaller than a maximum UCI payload size calculated based on M th RBs.

6. A communication device for transmitting and receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, the communication device comprising:

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory operably connected to the at least one processor and configured to store instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

configuring an interlace including M resource blocks (RBs) and N symbols for transmission of a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH); and

based on that an actual uplink control information (UCI) payload size required for the PUCCH transmission is smaller than a maximum UCI payload size capable of being transmitted on a PUCCH resource, transmitting the PUCCH by selecting a minimum number (N min ) of symbols required for the PUCCH transmission among the N symbols,

wherein the minimum number of symbols are selected to be adjacent to a location of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) symbols, and

wherein transmission of DMRS symbols not located first in a time domain among the DMRS symbols adjacent to the minimum number of symbols is dropped.

7. The communication device of claim 6 , wherein the maximum UCI payload size is calculated based on M×N×N_SC×Qm×R_max, where N_SC denotes a number of subcarriers for each RB, Qm denotes a parameter configured based on a modulation scheme, and R_max denotes a maximum UCI coding rate, and wherein the processor is configured to select N min as a minimum value of N satisfying that the maximum UCI payload size is greater than or equal to the actual UCI payload size.

8. The communication device of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to select N min by dropping transmission from a symbol located last in a time domain among the N symbols.

9. The communication device of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to select N min while M is unchanged.

10. The communication device of claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to reduce the M RBs for the PUCCH transmission to a threshold (M th ) and selects N min based on that the actual UCI payload size is smaller than a maximum UCI payload size calculated based on M th RBs.

11. The communication device of claim 6 , wherein the communication device includes an autonomous driving vehicle configured to communicate at least with a terminal, a network, and another autonomous driving vehicle other than the communication device.
