## Claims

### Claim at position 1

1-18. (canceled)

### Claim 19

A method of transmitting uplink (UL) data by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting an unlicensed band, the method comprising:
receiving scheduling information for UL data transmission,
wherein the scheduling information comprises first offset information received on a first time resource, second offset information received on a second time resource, and starting position information of the UL data transmission;
identifying a maximum timing advance (TA) value for the UE based on the first offset information, the second offset information, and the starting position information; and
performing the UL data transmission on the unlicensed band or dropping the UL data transmission, at a starting position related with the starting position information within a third time resource, based on a result of comparing the maximum TA value with a TA value configured to the UE,
wherein the third time resource is identified based on the first offset information and the second offset information.

### Claim 20 (depends on 19)

The method of claim 19,
wherein the UL data is a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).

### Claim 21 (depends on 19)

The method of claim 19,
wherein the starting position information informs, as a starting position of the UL data transmission, one of:
symbol #0 boundary,
symbol #0 boundary+25 μs,
symbol #0 boundary+25 μs+TA value configured to the UE, and
symbol #1 boundary.

### Claim 22 (depends on 19)

The method of claim 19,
wherein the third time resource is a time resource after a time duration from the second time resource,
wherein the time duration is related with the sum of a value related with the first offset information and a value related with the second offset information.

### Claim 23 (depends on 22)

The method of claim 22,
wherein the maximum TA value for the UE is differently identified based on a time length from the second time resource to the starting position related with the starting position information within the third time resource.

### Claim 24 (depends on 23)

The method of claim 23,
wherein, a time length from the second time resource to the starting position related with the starting position information within the third time resource increases, a value of the maximum TA for the UE increases.

### Claim 25 (depends on 19)

The method of claim 19,
wherein performing the UL data transmission or dropping the UL data transmission comprises:
in case of the maximum TA value being greater than or equal to the TA value configured to the UE, performing the UL data transmission at the starting position related with the starting position information within the third time resource, and,
in case of the maximum TA value being less than the TA value configured to the UE, dropping the UL data transmission at the starting position related with the starting position information within the third time resource.

### Claim 26 (depends on 19)

The method of claim 19,
wherein the sum of a value related with the first offset information and a value related with the second offset information is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 3.

### Claim 27 (depends on 19)

The method of claim 19, further comprising:
in case of sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission being scheduled with the UL data transmission and the UL data transmission being dropped based on the result of comparing the maximum TA value with the TA value configured to the UE, performing scheduled SRS transmission regardless of dropping of the UL data transmission.

### Claim 28

A user equipment (UE) for transmitting uplink (UL) data in a wireless communication system supporting an unlicensed band, the UE comprising:
a transmitter;
a receiver; and

identify a maximum timing advance (TA) value for the UE based on the first offset information, the second offset information, and the starting position information; and
perform the UL data transmission on the unlicensed band or dropping the UL data transmission, at a starting position related with the starting position information within a third time resource, based on a result of comparing the maximum TA value with a TA value configured to the UE,
wherein the third time resource is identified based on the first offset information and the second offset information.

### Claim 29 (depends on 28)

symbol #0 boundary+25 μs,
symbol #0 boundary+25 μs+TA value configured to the UE, and
symbol #1 boundary.

### Claim 31 (depends on 28)

The UE of claim 28,
wherein the third time resource is a time resource after a time duration from the second time resource,
wherein the time duration is related with the sum of a value related with the first offset information and a value related with the second offset information.

### Claim 32 (depends on 31)

The UE of claim 31,
