Claim:
1. A method for transmitting an aperiodic sounding reference signal (SRS) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving, in a subframe from a base station, downlink control information (DCI) including a triggering indicator indicating a transmission of the aperiodic SRS, wherein the DCI includes an uplink grant or a downlink grant; detecting the triggering indicator indicating whether to transmit the aperiodic SRS; and transmitting, by the UE to the base station, the aperiodic SRS in a specific subframe after another uplink subframe in response to the triggering indicator being received in the DCI, wherein the specific subframe is firstly transmitted after the another uplink subframe corresponding to the subframe in which the DCI is received, wherein if the DCI includes the uplink grant, the another uplink subframe corresponding to the subframe in which the DCI is received is a subframe in which a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) indicated by the uplink grant is transmitted, and wherein if the DCI includes the downlink grant, the another uplink subframe corresponding to the subframe in which the DCI is received is a subframe in which an uplink control signal corresponding to the downlink grant is transmitted.
