Abstract:
A transmitter, a receiver, and a method for measuring a radio channel based on reference signals transmitted through a predetermined number of OFDM symbols by using multiple antennas in an ultra-high frequency band, and controlling a beam width of analog beams formed by transmission multiple antennas based on the measurement result. The transmitter uniquely distributes a predetermined number of analog beams among the analog beams formed by the array antenna in correspondence to each of the predetermined number of OFDM symbols, and repeatedly allocates the predetermined number of analog beams distributed for each of the predetermined number of OFDM symbols by targeting the subcarriers within the corresponding OFDM symbol. The receiver receives a channel measurement instruction message, measures a channel state based on reference signals transmitted through the analog beams allocated for respective subcarriers, and feeds the channel state measurement result back to the transmitter.
Abstract:
A millimeter radio wave communication system. In a method for operating a base station (BS) in an analog/digital mixed BF system, an analog BF direction is determined. A digital BE precoder is determined for the determined analog BE direction. Digital BF precoding is performed using the digital BE precoder with respect to the determined analog BF direction. A DownLink Reference Signal (DL RS) is transmitted in the analog BF direction on which the digital BF precoding has been performed.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for configuring a wireless backhaul link by a Mobile Station (MS) in a wireless communication system. The method includes acquiring System Information (SI) for each of an old Base Station (BS) which transmits a first code and a new BS which transmits a second code. The method includes transmitting a message which reports the SI for the new BS to the old BS. The method includes receiving a message indicating that the new BS discards the second code and uses the first code from the old BS, wherein the first code is a code indicating that a related BS is a BS which has been already deployed, and wherein the second code is a code indicating that a related BS is a BS which is newly deployed.
