Provided are a method for using a flexible bandwidth in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)-based cognitive radio system, and a base station (BS) and a subscriber station using the method. The method includes: allocating a channel band from among unused channel bands having a bandwidth that is a natural number times a bandwidth resolution to customer premises equipment (CPE), wherein the bandwidth resolution is a predetermined bandwidth smaller than a bandwidth of a broadcast channel band, and transmitting an OFDMA-based signal comprising band allocation information indicating information regarding the allocated channel band.

Provided is a method of trasmitting/receiving an OFDM signal in which pilots are inserted, the pilots having a repeated pattern. The pilot pattern selects pilot symbol positions based on distances from pilots of previous orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) symbols to a subcarrier position of a current OFDMA symbol in the frequency domain and the time domain, so that a low pilot density is maintained so as to effectively transmit data, and stable channel estimation performance can be obtained even in a bad channel environment. In addition, the minimum burst allocation size is determined according to the channel environment between the base station and the terminal, guaranteeing channel estimation performance suitable for the channel environment, and improving granularity, channel estimation latency, and channel estimation memory size.

Provided are a beacon re-broadcasting apparatus, a beacon re-broadcasting method, and an initial access request method in a wireless network. In the re-broadcasting apparatus and method, a beacon frame including beacon information for communications in the wireless network and information on an echo beacon slot allocated for beacon re-broadcasting among time slots of a superframe is received from a management device for managing the wireless network in which a plurality of terminals communicated with each other through the superframe including time-divided time slots, and the beacon information is re-broadcasted during the echo beacon slot. Accordingly, the beacon information can be received in various environments, and the beacon information can be received to an adjacent network in addition to the corresponding network. Therefore, frequency resources can be shared and effectively used between networks, and convenience and efficiency in network operation can be maximized.

A data transmitter and receiver for improving a data rate, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method of transmitting and receiving an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol in which a pilot signal is added to a data signal is provided. The apparatus includes a transmitter including: a pilot adder to add a pilot signal to a data signal; and a guard interval inserting unit to insert a guard interval to the data signal with the added pilot signal, and a receiver including: a guard interval removal unit to remove a guard interval in a received time domain signal; a fast Fourier transform (FFT) unit to transform the time domain signal in which the guard interval is removed to a frequency domain signal; a channel estimator to estimate a channel value from the time domain signal in which the guard interval is removed; an equalizer to equalize the frequency domain signal based on the estimated channel value; and a pilot signal removal unit to remove the pilot signal in the equalized frequency domain signal.

Provided are a channel switching method for effectively performing channel switching in a cognitive radio system while protecting an incumbent user, a method of managing a frequency channel, and a base station and customer premises equipment (CPE) using the methods. In the channel switching method performed by the base station, a currently unavailable first frequency channel is detected from among at least one uplink/downlink frequency channel which is set as a communication channel with the CPE; a channel switching request message requesting switching from the first frequency channel to a second frequency channel is transmitted to the CPE; and the first frequency channel is switched to the second frequency channel when a channel switching report message reporting that channel switching is to be performed in response to the channel switching request message is received from the CPE.
