The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. A method by which a terminal receives a signal by removing interference in a wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: detecting a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) from each of a plurality of resource blocks (RBs) included in a reception subframe; detecting an interference absence reference signal from the RB for which the detection of the DMRS has failed; receiving a signal on the basis of the assumption that the RBs from which an interference absence reference signal has been detected among the RBs for which the detection of the DMRS has failed have no interference from an interference base station, and RBs, from which the interference absence reference signal has not been detected among the RBs for which the detection of the DMRS has failed, have interference from the interference base station.
