Discloses are a method and a device for transmitting midamble signals in a wireless communication system. The method for transmitting the midamble signals comprises the steps of: generating each of midamble signals for eight transmission antennas; and transmitting said midamble signals to a terminal through said eight transmission antennas. Among the midamble signals for said eight transmission antennas, a first midamble group which includes midamble signals for certain four transmission antennas and a second midamble group which includes midamble signals for the rest of four transmission antennas are transmitted through different resources.
