Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for transmitting a control channel in an intra-cell carrier aggregation system. The method includes establishing a connection with a base station through a Primary cell (Pcell) of a Time Division Duplex (TDD) scheme and a Secondary cell (Scell) of a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) scheme. The method also includes receiving data through the Scell before a timing configured as an uplink sub-frame according to a TDD UpLink-DownLink (UL-DL) configuration of the Pcell. The method also includes transmitting a feedback of the received data through the Pcell in a feedback sub-frame. By the method, a feedback for a data can be effectively transferred.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for resource allocation in a multi-carrier wireless communication system enables transmission using smaller resource units and achieves efficient transmission of data channels with very low data rates, scheduling a greater number of user equipments without additional control channel overhead while maintaining compatibility with the resource allocation scheme of legacy user equipments. Thus, one cell controls a larger number of user equipments. In addition, as multiple user equipments are scheduled using a single control channel, resource efficiency is increased.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting channel information, by a User Equipment (UE). Information for at least one first type Channel Status Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) and information for at least one second type CSI-RS from an eNB, are identified. A Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) including an indicator is received. The indicator triggers channel information report associated with a first type CSI-RS and a second type CSI-RS, among the at least one first type CSI-RS and the at least one second type CSI-RS. Channel information is generated based on the first type CSI-RS and the second type CSI-RS. The channel information is reported through a Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH).

The communication method of a terminal in a TDD radio communication system accomplishing broadband through carrier aggregation of primary and secondary cells, of which aggregated carriers have different TDD Uplink-Downlink (UL-DL) configurations, includes receiving Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) through the secondary cell, and transmitting acknowledgement information corresponding to the PDSCH to a base station, where acknowledgement information is transmitted on a Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) of the primary cell.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method of measuring a reference signal for efficient downlink transmission in a mobile communication system are provided. The system includes plural base stations, each having a plurality of antennas distributed in the service area thereof based on a Distributed Antenna System (DAS). A method for a base station to notify a terminal of reference signal measurement information in a mobile communication system comprises determining whether the terminal is in a Rank Indicator/Precoding Matrix Indicator (RI/PMI) disabled mode, selecting, when the terminal is in the RI/PMI disabled mode, the reference signal to be measured by the terminal between a Cell-specific Reference Signal (CRS) and a Channel Status Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS), notifying the terminal of the reference signal measurement information with the selection result, and receiving channel information generated based on the reference signal measurement information from the terminal.
