Abstract

A method for a terminal to receive Sounding Reference Symbol (SRS) configuration information in a wireless communication system comprises: a step of receiving SRS configuration information for SRS transmission in units of concatenated SRS blocks from a base station; and a step of transmitting SRS to the base station on the concatenated SRS blocks on the basis of the SRS configuration information, wherein the SRS configuration information may include information indicating a length of one SRS block, information indicating the number of SRS blocks, and information indicating an SRS block in which truncation is performed among the concatenated SRS blocks.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of receiving, by a base station (BS), a sounding reference signal (SRS) from a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
transmitting, to the UE, an SRS configuration including SRS bandwidth information and SRS sequence generation parameters; and
performing an SRS reception from the UE o based on information related to the SRS configuration,
wherein the SRS reception from the UE is performed in multiple SRS frequency blocks with different positions in a frequency domain, and
wherein a length of 1 -SRS frequency block in the frequency domain is configured based on the SRS configuration, and all of the multiple SRS frequency blocks with the different positions have the same length in the frequency domain as configured based on the SRS configuration.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SRS configuration is transmitted through radio resource control (RRC) signaling.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SRS sequence generation parameters includes a cyclic shift (CS) index, and a transmission comb (TC).

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the SRS configuration is configured based on SRS-related capability of the UE.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:
receiving, from the UE, a report regarding the SRS-related capability of the UE.

6. A base station (BS) comprising:
a transceiver; and
a processor configured to control the transceiver to transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration including SRS bandwidth information and SRS sequence generation parameters, and to perform an SRS reception from the UE based on information related to the SRS configuration,
wherein the SRS reception from the UE is performed in multiple SRS frequency blocks with different positions in a frequency domain, and
wherein a length of 1 -SRS frequency block in the frequency domain is configured based on the SRS configuration, and all of the multiple SRS frequency blocks with the different positions have the same length in the frequency domain as configured based on the SRS configuration.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the length of 1-SRS frequency block represents a number of resource blocks (RBs) per 1-SRS frequency block.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multiple SRS frequency blocks have different frequency domain start positions.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multiple SRS frequency blocks do not overlap with each other in the frequency domain.

10. A method of transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station (BS), an SRS configuration including SRS bandwidth information and SRS sequence generation parameters; and
performing an SRS transmission, by the UE, based on information related to the SRS configuration,
wherein the SRS transmission is performed by the UE in multiple SRS frequency blocks with different positions in a frequency domain, and
wherein a length of 1 -SRS frequency block in the frequency domain is configured based on the SRS configuration, and all of the multiple SRS frequency blocks with the different positions have the same length in the frequency domain as configured based on the SRS configuration.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the SRS configuration is received through radio resource control (RRC) signaling.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the SRS sequence generation parameters includes a cyclic shift (CS) index, and a transmission comb (TC).

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the SRS configuration is configured based on SRS-related capability of the UE.

14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:
transmitting, to the BS, a report regarding the SRS-related capability of the UE.

15. A non-transitory medium that is readable by a processor and recorded thereon instructions that cause the processor to perform the method of claim 10 .

16. A device for wireless communication, the device comprising:
a memory configured to store instructions; and
a processor configured to perform operations by executing the instructions, the operations comprises:
receiving a sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration including SRS bandwidth information and SRS sequence generation parameters; and
performing an SRS transmission on the multiple SRS frequency blocks based on information related to the SRS configuration,
wherein the SRS transmission is performed by the processor in multiple SRS frequency blocks with different positions in a frequency domain, and
wherein a length of 1 -SRS frequency block in the frequency domain is configured based on the SRS configuration, and all of the multiple SRS frequency blocks with the different positions have the same length in the frequency domain as configured based on the SRS configuration.

17. The device of claim 16 , wherein the device is an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or a digital signal processing device.

18. The device of claim 16 , wherein the device is a user equipment (UE) configured to operate in a 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP)-based wireless communication system.

19. The device of claim 16 , further comprising:
a transceiver configured to transmit or receive wireless signals under control of the processor.
