Patent ID: 8705653

Claim:
A method for transmitting a reference signal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: generating a reference signal sequence r(n) corresponding to a base sequence x u (n) via a cyclic shift α of the base sequence x u (n) as follows: r(n)=e jαn x u (n), where α is the cyclic shift value; and transmitting the reference signal r(n) generated based on the base sequence x u (n) on an uplink channel, wherein the base sequence x u (n) is expressed by x u (n)=e jp(n)π/4 , where p(n) is a phase parameter, and if a length of the base sequence x u (n) is 12, at least one of the sets of values provided in the below table is used as a set of values for the phase parameter p(n): p(0), . . . , p(11) −1 3 −1 1 1 −3 −3 −1 −3 −3 3 −1 −1 3 1 3 1 −1 −1 3 −3 −1 −3 −1 −1 −3 1 1 1 1 3 1 −1 1 −3 −1 −1 3 −3 3 −1 3 3 −3 3 3 −1 −1, or if a length of the base sequence x u (n) is 24, at least one of the sets of values provided in the below table is used as a set of values for the phase parameter p(n): p(0), . . . , p(23) −1 −3 3 −1 −1 −1 −1 1 1 −3 3 1 3 3 1 −1 1 −3 1 −3 1 1 −3 −1 −1 −3 3 −3 −3 −3 −1 −1 −3 −1 −3 3 1 3 −3 −1 3 −1 1 −1 3 −3 1 −1 −1 −1 1 −3 1 3 −3 1 −1 −3 −1 3 1 3 1 −1 −3 −3 −1 −1 −3 −3 −3 −1 −1 −3 1 1 3 −3 1 1 −3 −1 −1 1 3 1 3 1 −1 3 1 1 −3 −1 −3 −1 −1 −3 −1 −1 1 −3 −1 −1 1 −1 −3 1 1 −3 1 −3 −3 3 1 1 −1 3 −1 −1.
