METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RE MAPPING AND RATE MATCHING FOR ADVANCED RADIO SYSTEM

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method of a user equipment (UE) for receiving resource information is provided. The method comprises receiving, from a base station (BS), a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) including a master information block (MIB); receiving, from the BS, SystemInformationBlockType1 (SIB1) comprising a first ssb-PositionsInBurst indicating indexes of SS/PBCH blocks for which the UE does not receive other signals or channels in resource elements (REs) that overlap with REs corresponding to the SS/PBCH blocks.
