Abstract
In an uplink transmission method of a first communication node, the first communication node receives a reference signal configuration for an UpPTS (uplink pilot time slot) from a second communication node when the UpPTS of a special subframe and a first uplink (UL) subframe are aggregated as an extended UL subframe. Also, the first communication node allocates a reference signal to the first UL subframe of the UpPTS and the first UL subframe based on the reference signal configuration when a number of time domain symbols belonging to the UpPTS is a predetermined number or less.
