Abstract

A method for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) by a terminal in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present specification, comprises the steps of: transmitting UE capability information associated with transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) based on a specific usage; receiving configuration information associated with the transmission of the SRS; and transmitting the SRS.

Claims (45)

1. A method for transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), a sounding reference signal (SRS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting UE capability information related to transmission of a sound reference signal (SRS) based on a specific usage;

receiving downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS, wherein the DCI includes information representing a panel related to the transmission of the SRS;

receiving configuration information related to transmission of the SRS; and

transmitting the SRS,

wherein the UE capability information is related to a plurality of panels,

wherein at least one SRS resource set is configured for each panel among the plurality of panels based on the UE capability information, and

wherein the SRS is transmitted based on any one panel of the plurality of panels,

wherein based on that a panel related to reception of the DCI is different from the panel related to the transmission of the SRS, the SRS is transmitted based on a predefined panel, and

wherein based on that a time position at which the SRS is triggered belongs to a guard period related to a panel switching delay, the predefined panel is determined be to the panel receiving the DCI or a panel configured as default among the plurality of panels.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific usage is based on antenna switching, and the SRS resource set includes at least one SRS resource.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the UE capability information includes information on at least one of a number of antennas related to the transmission of the SRS, whether the SRS resource sets of each panel are simultaneously transmittable, or the panel switching delay.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the number of antennas related to the transmission of the SRS is based on a number of plurality of panels and a number of antennas for each panel.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein the UE capability information includes the number of plurality of panels, and the number of antennas related to the transmission of the SRS is based on the number of antennas for each panel.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the number of plurality of panels includes at least one of a number of transmission (Tx) panels or a number of reception (Rx) panels.

7. The method of claim 3 , wherein based on that the UE capability information includes information representing incapability of simultaneous transmission for the SRS resource sets of each panel,

the panel switching delay is included in the UE capability information.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the configuration information includes information on SRS resource setting related to the plurality of panels and the SRS resource setting includes a plurality of SRS resource sets for the plurality of panels.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the configuration information includes the guard period related to the panel switching delay, and

wherein the SRS resource setting is configured based on the guard period.

10. The method of claim 3 , wherein based on the time position at which the SRS is triggered deviates from the guard period related to the panel switching delay, the predefined panel is determined to be the panel related to the transmission of the SRS.

11. A UE for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

one or more transceivers;

one or more processors; and

one or more memories operably connectable to the one or more processors, and storing instructions of performing operations when the transmission of the SRS is executed by the one or more processors,

wherein the operations include:

transmitting UE capability information associated with transmission of a sound reference signal (SRS) based on a specific usage;

receiving downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS, wherein the DCI includes information representing a panel related to the transmission of the SRS;

receiving configuration information related to transmission of the SRS; and

transmitting the SRS,

wherein the UE capability information is related to a plurality of panels,

wherein at least one SRS resource set is configured for each panel among the plurality of panels based on the UE capability information, and

wherein the SRS is transmitted based on any one panel of the plurality of panels,

wherein based on that a panel related to reception of the DCI is different from the panel related to the transmission of the SRS, the SRS is transmitted based on a predefined panel, and

wherein based on that a time position at which the SRS is triggered belongs to a guard period related to a panel switching delay, the predefined panel is determined to be the panel receiving the DCI or a panel configured as default among the plurality of panels.

12. A method for receiving, by a base station (BS), a sounding reference signal (SRS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving UE capability information associated with transmission of a sound reference signal (SRS) based on a specific usage;

transmitting downlink control information (DCI) for triggering the SRS, wherein the DCI includes information representing a panel related to the transmission of the SRS;

transmitting configuration information related to transmission of the SRS; and

receiving the SRS,

wherein the UE capability information is related to a plurality of panels,

wherein at least one SRS resource set is configured for each panel among the plurality of panels based on the UE capability information, and

wherein the SRS is transmitted based on any one panel of the plurality of panels,

wherein based on that a panel related to reception of the DCI is different from the panel related to the transmission of the SRS, the SRS is transmitted based on a predefined panel, and

wherein based on that a time position at which the SRS is triggered belongs to a guard period related to a panel switching delay, the predefined panel is determined to be the panel receiving the DCI or a panel configured as default among the plurality of panels.
