## Abstract

The present specification discloses a method and an apparatus for transmitting/receiving a physical uplink shared channel in a wireless communication system. Specifically, a method in which a terminal transmits a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: receiving configuration information related to transmission of the PUSCH; receiving downlink control information that schedules the PUSCH, the downlink control information comprising information that indicates a downlink reference signal (DL RS) related to a beam for transmission of the PUSCH; and transmitting the PUSCH by using the beam.

## Claims
