Method and apparatus for performing communication for transmission of IAB node in wireless communication system
A method and apparatus for transmitting signals via a backhaul link between a parent integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node and a child IAB node by an IAB node including an integrated access and backhaul mobile termination (IAB-MT) and an integrated access and backhaul distributed unit (IAB-DU) in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving, from the parent IAB node, signaling information indicating a timing scheme to be applied for the IAB-MT, and in case that the indicated timing scheme is a first timing scheme in which a transmission timing of the IAB MT coincides with a transmission timing of the IAB DU, transmitting a signal in a backhaul uplink to the parent IAB node by the IAB-MT, and transmitting a signal in a backhaul downlink to the child IAB node by the IAB-DU, wherein the transmission timing at which the IAB-MT transmits the signal and the transmission timing at which the IAB-DU transmits the signal are set identically.
1. A method performed by a child integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node including an IAB-mobile termination (MT) and an IAB-distributed unit (DU) in a wireless communication system including a parent IAB node and the child IAB node, the method comprising:
receiving, from the parent IAB node, information indicating a timing case to be applied for the child IAB node;
transmitting, to the parent IAB node, guard information associated with switching between timing cases including the indicated timing case;
setting an uplink transmission time of the IAB-MT to a transmission time of the IAB-DU in case that the indicated timing case is a first timing case; and
setting an uplink transmission time of the IAB-MT based on a timing advance (TA) applied for a user equipment (UE) in case that the indicated timing case is a second timing case.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uplink transmission timing of the IAB-MT is identically set based on the transmission timing of the IAB-DU.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information indicating the timing case is received using a medium access control (MAC) signal.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indicated timing case is set in a unit of a slot.
5. A child integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node including an IAB-mobile termination (MT) and an IAB-distributed unit (DU) in a wireless communication system including a parent IAB node and the child IAB node, the child IAB node comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor configured to:
receive, via the transceiver from the parent IAB node, information indicating a timing case to be applied for the child IAB node,
transmit, to the parent IAB node, guard information associated with switching between timing cases including the indicated timing case,
set an uplink transmission time of the IAB-MT to a transmission time of the IAB-DU in case that the indicated timing case is a first timing case, and
set an uplink transmission time of the IAB-MT based on a timing advance (TA) applied for a user equipment (UE) in case that the indicated timing case is a second timing case.
6. The child IAB node of claim 5 , wherein the uplink transmission timing of the IAB-MT is identically set based on the transmission timing of the IAB-DU.
7. The child IAB node of claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to receive the information indicating the timing case is received using a medium access control (MAC) signal.
8. The child IAB node of claim 5 , wherein the indicated timing case is set in a unit of a slot.
