Abstract

A method, performed by a user equipment (UE), of transmitting and receiving a signal in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: receiving timing advance command information from a base station in a first time slot; identifying at least one uplink carrier to which the timing advance command information is applied; and changing, based on the timing advance command information, uplink timing of the at least one uplink carrier in a second time slot.

Claims (23)

1. A method performed by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, timing advance command information for a timing advance group (TAG) in a slot;

determining a first uplink slot associated with the received timing advance command information, based on a minimum subcarrier spacing (SCS) among a plurality of SCSs of all uplink bandwidth parts (BWPs) in the TAG, wherein the first uplink slot is identified as one among a plurality of uplink slots overlapping with the slot where the timing advance command information is received;

identifying, based on the minimum SCS among the plurality of SCSs of the all uplink BWPs in the TAG, a number of second uplink slots associated with an adjustment of uplink transmission timing;

identifying, based on the first uplink slot and the identified number of the second uplink slots, an uplink slot to apply the adjustment of uplink transmission timing; and

adjusting, based on the timing advance command information, the uplink transmission timing from the identified uplink slot, wherein the identified uplink slot is associated with a sum of a slot index of the first uplink slot and the number of second uplink slots.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the timing advance command information is included in a timing advance command medium access control-control element (MAC CE).

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the timing advance command MAC CE includes information indicating the TAG, and

wherein the TAG includes a plurality of cells to which the timing advance command information is applied.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

performing uplink transmission based on the adjustment of uplink transmission timing.

5. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled with the transceiver and configured to:

receive, from a base station via the transceiver, timing advance command information for a timing advance group (TAG) in a slot,

determine a first uplink slot associated with the received timing advance command information, based on a minimum subcarrier spacing (SCS) among a plurality of SCSs of all uplink bandwidth parts (BWPs) in the TAG, wherein the first uplink slot is identified as one among a plurality of uplink slots overlapping with the slot where the timing advance command information is received,

identify, based on the minimum SCS among the plurality of SCSs of the all uplink BWPs in the TAG, a number of second uplink slots associated with an adjustment of uplink transmission timing,

identify, based on the first uplink slot and the identified number of the second uplink slots, an uplink slot to apply the adjustment of uplink transmission timing, and

adjust, based on the timing advance command information, the uplink transmission timing from the identified uplink slot, wherein the identified uplink slot is associated with a sum of a slot index of the first uplink slot and the number of second uplink slots.

6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the timing advance command information is included in a timing advance command medium access control-control element (MAC CE).

7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the timing advance command MAC CE includes information indicating the TAG, and

wherein the TAG includes a plurality of cells to which the timing advance command information is applied.

8. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to perform uplink transmission based on the adjustment of uplink transmission timing.
