The reference signal may be abbreviated as RS or may be referred to as a pilot, depending on the applied standards.

The description “based on” used in the present specification does not mean “based on only” unless otherwise specifically noted. In other words, the phrase “base on” means both “based on only” and “based on at least”.

Any reference to an element using terms such as “first” or “second” as used in the present disclosure does not generally limit the amount or the order of those elements. These terms may be used in the present disclosure as a convenient way to distinguish between two or more elements. Therefore, references to the first and second elements do not imply that only two elements may be employed or that the first element must in some way precede the second element.

“Means” included in the configuration of each of the above apparatuses may be replaced by “parts,” “circuits,” “devices,” etc.

In the case where the terms “include”, “including” and variations thereof are used in the present disclosure, these terms are intended to be comprehensive in the same way as the term “comprising”. Further, the term “or” used in the present specification is not intended to be an “exclusive or”.

A radio frame may include one or more frames in the time domain. Each of the one or more frames in the time domain may be referred to as a subframe. The subframe may further include one or more slots in the time domain. The subframe may be a fixed length of time (e.g., 1 ms) independent from the numerology.
