FIG. 9 illustrates other examples of the transmission structure of a preamble and data to which a method proposed in this specification may be applied. FIG. 9 is merely for convenience of description and does not limit the scope of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 9, it is assumed that the length of a preamble and the transmission region of data are variably configured based on a time resource region (i.e., a fixed time resource region) pre-configured with respect to a specific PRACH configuration. Furthermore, the method described in FIG. 9 may be applied to the structure in which a midamble and data are transmitted together in addition to the structure in which a preamble and data are transmitted together.
For example, a base station may indicate that a UE should transmit the length of a preamble based on a data set (or data type) through a downlink control channel (e.g., PDCCH) (i.e., DCI). In other words, the base station may differently configure the length of a preamble depending on a data set, and may deliver (or indicate) corresponding information to the UE. In this case, a code rate required (or necessary) for a data region may be fixed, and the number of required symbols may be differently configured depending on the data set.
