Abstract:
A method for sending and receiving multi-carrier information in a communication system supporting a multi-carrier includes sending by a base station system information to the terminal via a broadcast message, the system information regarding multi-carriers that the base station is able to support; receiving a unicast message from the terminal, the unicast message including information related to carriers that the terminal is able to support or prefers in the multi-carrier list included in the system information; and sending multi-carrier allocation information including a primary carrier and a second carrier that the terminal will use, to the terminal via a unicast message.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting a feedback message in wireless communication system is provided. The method includes selecting N best subbands of M subbands according to CQI, where both M and N are a natural number and M is larger than N, generating multiple input multiple output (MIMO) information comprising N codebook indexes and N differential CQIs and transmitting the feedback message comprising the MIMO information.
Abstract:
A method of performing a location update. The method according to one embodiment includes receiving, by a mobile station, information related to a first paging group and a second paging group assigned for the mobile station, from at least one base station; starting, by the mobile station, a timer when the mobile station leaves the first paging group but stays within the second paging group; determining, by the mobile station, whether the mobile station is within the first paging group or the second paging group, before an expiration of the timer; and performing, by the mobile station, a location update before the expiration of the timer if the mobile station is determined to be not within the first paging group and the second paging group.
Abstract:
A method for managing carriers allocated to a mobile station in a broadband wireless access system supporting multiple carriers, and an apparatus for use in the method are disclosed. A carrier management method for allowing a mobile station to perform carrier management in a broadband wireless access system supporting multiple carriers includes receiving a first message, which includes activation information indicating activation of at least one target carrier from among one or more second carriers allocated through a first carrier, from a base station, and transmitting a second message, which informs the base station of readiness or non-readiness of the at least one target carrier according to a result of the activation, to the base station. The activation information includes information indicating an activation time point, and the transmitting of the second message is performed at a specific time indicated by the activation time point information.
Abstract:
A method for updating a location in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes transmitting a request message to enter idle mode, receiving a response message including an Identifier (ID) of a first paging group and an ID of a second paging group in response to the request message, activating a paging group location update timer, when the MS leaves an area of the first paging group, and updating a location according to the paging group location update timer.
Abstract:
A method for operating a plurality of carriers by a user equipment in a wireless communication system supporting a primary carrier and at least one secondary carrier, the method includes transmitting, to a base station, carrier capability information; receiving, from the base station, carrier configuration information, the carrier configuration information including an index of the at least one secondary carrier configured for the user equipment, the carrier configuration information being based upon the carrier capability information of the user equipment, the primary carrier being configured as a carrier for performing an initial network entry procedure; receiving, from the base station, a control channel including information regarding multi-carrier operation through the primary carrier; and transmitting, to the base station, traffic through one of the at least one secondary carrier based on the information regarding multi-carrier operation.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting and receiving data using a superframe structure is disclosed. A method for transmitting data through a superframe including a superframe header, includes generating the superframe which includes a data region including user data and includes a dedicated control region including data region allocation information indicating resource allocation for the data region, and transmitting the superframe. The dedicated control region is arranged at at least one of locations except for a subframe of the superframe header. A user equipment which does not have to transmit and receive data decodes only data region allocation information using information of the data region indicated by a dedicated control region, thereby minimizing power loss, reducing a feedback delay, and reducing system overhead using a superframe structure.
Abstract:
A method for efficiently performing an initial access in an MS in a multi-carrier broadband wireless access system is disclosed. The method includes scanning a plurality of carriers supported by a BS, and selecting one of the scanned carriers as a first carrier and receiving an SFH of the first carrier. The SFH of the first carrier includes at least one of a field indicating load status of the first carrier and recommended network entry carrier information including information about a second carrier in good load status.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for reducing interference between systems when a plurality of wireless access systems are co-located are disclosed. To support CLC mode, an MS in the CRC mode transmits a handover request message to a first Base Station (BS) to initiate a handover process, receives a handover command message acknowledging the handover request message from the first BS, transmits a ranging request message to second BS at network reentry after handover, and receives from the second BS a ranging response message including CRC start time information that set by the second BS.
