Abstract

A method and an apparatus for uplink transmission and reception based on a spatial parameter in a wireless communication system are disclosed. A method for performing uplink transmission by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may comprise: receiving, from a base station (BS), information on a specific spatial parameter among spatial parameter candidates including at least one of a first set of spatial parameters or a second set of spatial parameters; and performing the uplink transmission, to the BS, based on the specific spatial parameter, and the first set of spatial parameter may include at least one spatial parameter candidate related to a first cell and a first type of a reference signal (RS).

Claims (49)

1. A method for performing uplink transmission by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), information on a spatial parameter based on spatial parameter candidates including at least one of a first spatial parameter candidate or a second spatial parameter candidate; and

transmitting at least one of an uplink channel or an uplink signal to the BS, based on the spatial parameter,

wherein the first spatial parameter candidate is related to a first cell and a reference signal (RS) including at least one of a synchronization signal block (SSB), a channel state information (CSI)-RS, or a sounding reference signal (SRS),

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is related to a second cell and a RS including at least one of a SSB, a CSI-RS, or a SRS,

wherein the first cell is a serving cell of the UE and the second cell is a cell different from the serving cell, and

wherein, based on the spatial parameter being associated with the second spatial parameter candidate, a physical cell identifier of the second cell is additionally configured for the spatial parameter.

2. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein each of the spatial parameter candidates is associated with one of the first cell or the second cell.

3. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein at least one of the spatial parameter candidates is associated with a plurality of cells.

4. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is further related to a specific type of a RS, and

wherein the specific type of a RS includes a type of RS other than SSS, CSI-RS, and SRS.

5. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is further related to a specific type of a RS, and

wherein the specific type of a RS includes at least one of mobility CSI-RS or positioning RS (PRS).

6. The method of claim 1 ,

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is configured with a physical cell identifier of the second cell.

7. A user equipment (UE) for performing downlink reception or uplink transmission in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

at least one transceiver; and

at least one processor coupled with the at least one transceiver,

wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

receive, from a base station (BS) through the at least one transceiver, information on a spatial parameter based on spatial parameter candidates including at least one of a first spatial parameter candidate or a second spatial parameter candidate; and

transmitting at least one of an uplink channel or an uplink signal to the BS through the at least one transceiver, based on the spatial parameter,

wherein the first spatial parameter candidate is related to a first cell and a reference signal (RS) including at least one of a synchronization signal block (SSB), a channel state information (CSI)-RS, or a sounding reference signal (SRS),

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is related to a second cell and a RS including at least one of a SSB, a CSI-RS, or a SRS,

wherein the first cell is a serving cell of the UE and the second cell is a cell different from the serving cell, and

wherein, based on the spatial parameter being associated with the second spatial parameter candidate, a physical cell identifier of the second cell is additionally configured for the spatial parameter.

8. A method for performing uplink reception by a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), information on a spatial parameter among spatial parameter candidates based on at least one of a first spatial parameter candidate or a second spatial parameter candidate; and

receiving at least one of an uplink channel or an uplink signal from the UE, based on the spatial parameter,

wherein the first spatial parameter candidate is related to a first cell and a reference signal (RS) including at least one of a synchronization signal block (SSB), a channel state information (CSI)-RS, or a sounding reference signal (SRS),

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is related to a second cell and a RS including at least one of a SSB, a CSI-RS, or a SRS,

wherein the first cell is a serving cell of the UE and the second cell is a cell different from the serving cell, and

wherein, based on the spatial parameter being associated with the second spatial parameter candidate, a physical cell identifier of the second cell is additionally configured for the spatial parameter.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing at least one computer program comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform the method of claim 8 .

10. The method of claim 8 ,

wherein each of the spatial parameter candidates is associated with one of the first cell or the second cell.

11. The method of claim 8 ,

wherein at least one of the spatial parameter candidates is associated with a plurality of cells.

12. The method of claim 8 ,

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is further related to a specific type of a RS, and

wherein the specific type of a RS includes a type of RS other than SSS, CSI-RS, and SRS.

13. The method of claim 8 ,

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is further related to a specific type of a RS, and

wherein the specific type of a RS includes at least one of mobility CSI-RS or positioning RS (PRS).

14. The method of claim 8 ,

wherein the second spatial parameter candidate is configured with a physical cell identifier of the second cell.
