An operation method of a terminal for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) to a base station in a wireless communication system may comprise receiving a higher layer message including information on a position of an SRS resource for transmission of the SRS from the base station; receiving a trigger signal from the base station, the trigger signal triggering the transmission of the SRS and including index information of the position of the SRS resource; performing a channel sensing operation on a radio resource indicated by the information on the positions of the SRS resource and the index information; and transmitting the SRS to the base station based on a result of the channel sensing.
