Abstract:
A method and apparatus for beamforming in a wireless communication system are provided. The method of supporting beamforming in a wireless communication device includes detecting a direction change of the wireless communication device while communicating with a peer device. The method of supporting beamforming in a wireless communication device also includes adjusting a beam direction for communication with the peer device based on information indicating a direction change of the wireless communication device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus in a communication system. A method of a network node in the communication system comprises the steps of: measuring at least one factor value indicating channel link performance of a channel link between the network node and another network node; identifying a beamforming training scheme based on the at least one factor value; and performing beamforming training with the another network node by means of the selected beamforming training method, thereby finding an optimal beam for maintaining services through the most efficient method according to a channel state and minimizing the time consumed for beamforming training.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for transmitting a data frame using channel bonding in a wireless local area network in which high throughput (HT) stations and legacy systems coexist. The method includes adding a legacy format physical layer header including information, which indicates that a medium is being used while a frame exchange sequence is performed with respect to the HT format data frame, to the HT format data frame, transmitting the HT format data frame with the physical layer header by using channel bonding, and broadcasting the legacy format CF-End frame through a plurality of channels used in the channel bonding. Accordingly, after a frame exchange sequence is completed, the legacy stations which use channels used in the channel bonding can participate in a fair contention for medium access.

The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Embodiments of the present invention provide a device and a method for estimating a position between wireless apparatuses using a signal transmitted and received between wireless apparatuses in a wireless communication system. A device of a first wireless apparatus for estimating a position comprises: a transceiver for transmitting and receiving a signal to and from a second wireless apparatus; and a position estimator for estimating a position of the second wireless apparatus using a signal transmitted and received through the transceiver. The position estimator comprises a range estimator for estimating the distance between the first wireless apparatus and the second wireless apparatus on the basis of a first time difference from a time point at which a request range packet is transmitted to the second wireless apparatus to a time point at which the reception of a response range packet transmitted from the second wireless apparatus is sensed and a second time difference from a time point at which the reception of the required range packet is sensed by the second wireless apparatus to a time point at which the response range packet is transmitted.
