Provided are a method for operating user equipment (UE) having multiple serving cells set therefor in a wireless communication system and UE using the method. The method comprises: receiving a higher-level signal indicating a mapping between the values of the serving cell index (ServingCellID) of a serving cell and a carrier index field (CIF); and identifying the serving cell on the basis of the higher-level signal.

The present invention provides a UE, a method for an aperiodic SRS in a base station and a device. For a problem of a scheduling restriction of a traditional A-SRS in unlicensed spectrum communication, the present disclosure provides the method and apparatus for the A-SRS, wherein physical-layer signaling is used to indicate a sending frequency band of an SRS to implement flexible scheduling of the aperiodic SRS. As an embodiment, the number of antenna ports of the A-SRS is configured by high-layer signaling identified by a logical cell index. A physical resource occupied by the aperiodic SRS is configured by high-layer signaling identified by a carrier index. The logical cell index at different frameworks may correspond to different physical carriers.

Methods of identifying whether a biologically active agent affects an oncogene addicted pathway within a cancer cell, by introducing a biologically active agent suspected of affecting an oncogene addicted pathway to a first well and a negative control to a second well, and introducing a stimulating agent that stimulates the oncogene addicted pathway to both wells; monitoring cell-substrate impedance of the two wells and optionally determining cell indices from impedance values; generating an impedance based curve for each of the two wells from the impedance values or from the cell indices; comparing the impedance-based curves to determine a degree of similarity; and if significantly different concluding the biologically active agent affects the oncogene addicted pathway within the cancer cells.
