We theoretically consider spin pumping in a junction between a ferromagnetic insulator (FI) and a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in which the Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions coexist. We formulate an additional increase of linewidth in the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) experiment using second-order perturbation with respect to an interfacial exchange coupling. We clarify how the enhancement of the Gilbert damping depends on the resonant frequency and spin orientation of the FI. We show that this setup of the FMR experiment can provide information on the spin texture of 2DEG at the Fermi surface.
