Abstract:
A link adaptation method performed by a station (STA) in a wireless local area network (LAN) system supporting multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) is provided. The method includes: receiving a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) request, a steered sounding physical layer convergence procedure (PLOP) protocol data unit (PPDU) which is beam-formed to the STA, and a MIMO indicator including MU-MIMO-related information from an access point (AP); and transmitting feedback information including an MCS acquired from the steered sounding PPDU and the MU-MIMO-related information to the AP in response to the MCS request.

A method for a user equipment (UE) to receive a PDCCH (physical downlink control channel) transmitted from a base station via a specific resource region includes receiving a PBCH (physical broadcast channel) including first system information and PHICH (physical hybrid ARQ indicator channel) related information from the base station and receiving the PDCCH transmitted from the base station via the specific resource region for downlink control information.
Abstract:
A method for performing a wireless communication between a UE and a BS in a wireless communication system supporting a first UE using a single frequency band and a second UE using a plurality of frequency bands, to each of which OFDM is applied, is disclosed. The method includes being allocated one or more downlink component carriers for the second UE from the BS, and receiving the one or more downlink component carriers from the BS by the second UE. The one or more down-link component carriers are cyclically shifted by different cyclic shift values and the cyclic shifting is performed by multiplying each of the one or more downlink component carriers by a linear phase having a different inclination.
Abstract:
A Multi-User-Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) transmission method performed by an AP in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system is provided. The method includes transmitting an MU-MIMO initiation message to a destination STA which is a target of a MU-MIMO transmission, the MU-MIMO initiation message informing that MU-MIMO transmission will be initiated, receiving a sounding frame transmitted by the destination STA as a response to the MU-MIMO initiation message and performing MU-MIMO transmission on data by beamforming based on channel information obtained from the sounding frame. The sounding frame includes precoded and virtualized channel information Hvirtual between the AP and the STA. A dimension of the Hvirtual is lower than a dimension of channel information H between the AP and the STA.
Abstract:
An STBC based signal transmission method considering the number of symbols within a slot. In transmitting a signal using two or more transmission antennas in a mobile communication system using a structure in which one subframe includes two slots and each slot includes a plurality of symbols, transmission symbols are paired in units of two consecutive symbols within each subframe by an STBC scheme. The transmission symbols are mapped to a frequency region in units of slots and the mapped transmission symbols are transmitted. One symbol within a slot in which the number of symbols excluding symbols for transmitting a reference signal is an odd number is not paired by the STBC scheme.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting a data frame in a wireless local area network is provided. The method includes TXOP the step of: obtaining a transmission opportunity (TXOP) indicating a time interval during which a transmitter has a right to transmit at least one data frame and an available bandwidth for the TXOP and sequentially transmitting a plurality of data frames to at least one receiver during the TXOP, wherein a bandwidth of a subsequent data frame of the plurality of data frames is same to or narrower than a bandwidth of a preceding data frame of the plurality of data frames which is last previously transmitted before the subsequent data frame.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for transmitting and receiving a demodulation reference signal (DM RS) are disclosed. A method for controlling a base station (BS) to transmit a demodulation reference signal (Demodulation RS or DM RS) in a wireless communication system includes transmitting, by the base station (BS), a DM RS for a relay node (RN) to the relay node (RN) through a specific backhaul subframe to which an extended cyclic prefix (CP) is applied. The DM RS is transmitted over two resource elements (REs) of individual subcarriers having subcarrier frequency indexes 2, 5, 8 and 11 in a frequency axis within a second slot of the specific backhaul subframe.

A method and apparatus of controlling transmit power in a wireless communication system is provided. A wireless apparatus selects one transmit mode among a plurality of transmit modes, and determines the transmit power on the basis of the selected transmit mode. The wireless apparatus transmits an uplink channel by using the transmit power.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for transmitting a downlink reference signal in a wireless communication system that supports multiple antennas. A method for transmitting channel state information-reference signals (CSI-RS) for two or more antenna ports according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: mapping the CSI-RSs for the two or more antenna ports in predetermined patterns on a data region of a downlink subframe: an transmitting the downlink subframe mapped with the CSI-RSs for the two or more antenna ports, wherein the predetermined patterns are defined as patterns differing by a cell, and the different patterns may be defined as the predetermined patterns being shifted in a temporal range, frequency range, or a temporal range and a frequency range.
