Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a method for transmitting a sounding reference signal by a terminal, and a terminal using the method. The method comprises the following steps: receiving carrier information indicating the carrier via which a sounding reference signal is to be transmitted; receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) through a first downlink component carrier; and transmitting a sounding reference signal through a second downlink component carrier, wherein the second downlink component carrier is determined based on the carrier information.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) of a user equipment for which a plurality of uplink component carriers (UL CCs) are configured, the method comprising: receiving system information that indicates a link relationship between a downlink component carrier (DL CC) and an uplink component carrier (UL CC), through a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) of a first DL CC; receiving a downlink grant through a physical downlink c…
