Abstract
The provided are a method of transmitting and receiving data using empty resource elements (REs) located in a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) symbol in a next-generation/5G radio access network. The method of a base station for transmitting DMRS port allocation information to a terminal may include configuring one or more available RE patterns; transmitting, to the terminal, information indicating an available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns; and transmitting the DMRS port allocation information to the terminal. The available RE pattern is composed of REs to which no DMRSs are allocated among REs located on a symbol to which DMRSs are to be allocated, and through the REs in the available RE pattern, the base station receives uplink data from the terminal or transmits downlink data to the terminal.

Claim
1. A method for transmitting, by a base station, demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port allocation information to a terminal, the method comprising:
configuring one or more available resource element (RE) patterns; transmitting, to the terminal, information indicating an available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns; and transmitting the DMRS port allocation information to the terminal, wherein the available RE pattern is composed of REs not allocated to DMRSs among REs located on a symbol and available to be allocated to DMRSs, and wherein through the REs in the available RE pattern, the base station receives uplink data from the terminal or transmits downlink data to the terminal.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns is transmitted to the terminal through downlink control information.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns is included in a field indicating antenna port information in the downlink control information and then transmitted to the terminal.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns includes information indicating, among the available RE patterns, a number of available RE patterns to be used by the terminal.
5. The method of claim 4, wherein among the available RE patterns, the number of available RE patterns to be used by the terminal is one, two, or three.
6. A method for receiving, by a terminal, demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port allocation information from a base station, the method comprising:
receiving information indicating an available resource element (RE) pattern to be used by the terminal among one or more available RE patterns configured by the base station; and receiving the DMRS port allocation information from the base station, wherein the available RE pattern is composed of REs not allocated to DMRSs among REs located on a symbol and available to be allocated to DMRSs, and wherein through the REs in the available RE pattern, the terminal receives downlink data from the base station or transmits uplink data to the base station.
7. The method of claim 6, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns is received from the base station through downlink control information.
8. The method of claim 7, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns is included in a field indicating antenna port information in the downlink control information and then received from the base station.
9. The method of claim 6, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns includes information indicating, among the available RE patterns, a number of available RE patterns to be used by the terminal.
10. The method of claim 9, wherein among the available RE patterns, the number of available RE patterns to be used by the terminal is one, two, or three.
11. A terminal for receiving demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port allocation information from a base station, the terminal comprising:
a receiver configured to receive information indicating an available resource element (RE) pattern to be used by the terminal among one or more available RE patterns configured by the base station and configured to receive the DMRS port allocation information from the base station, wherein the available RE pattern is composed of REs not allocated to DMRSs among REs located on a symbol and available to be allocated to DMRSs, and wherein through the REs in the available RE pattern, the terminal receives downlink data from the base station or transmits uplink data to the base station.
12. The terminal of claim 11, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the UE among the available RE patterns is received from the base station through downlink control information.
13. The terminal of claim 12, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the UE among the available RE patterns is included in a field indicating antenna port information in the downlink control information and then received from the base station.
14. The terminal of claim 11, wherein the information indicating the available RE pattern to be used by the terminal among the available RE patterns includes information indicating, among the available RE patterns, a number of available RE patterns to be used by the terminal.
15. The terminal of claim 14, wherein among the available RE patterns, the number of available RE patterns to be used by the UE is one, two, or three.
