Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for scheduling in a communication system. A Coordinated Multi-point Transmission/Reception (CoMP) set of cells is determined for a terminal that supports a CoMP function. An indicator for use in scheduling one or more cells in the CoMP set and cell information corresponding to the indicator are transmitted to the terminal. Scheduling information with the indicator is transmitted to the terminal.

Abstract:
A new structure of user-specific reference signals design is provided. Higher spectrum efficiency is achieved, and two users may share the same resource for control signal transmission in a distributed antenna system via different distributed antennas. In addition, search space overlapping is enabled and thus control resource reuse is made possible.

A method and system for resource allocation for data and control channels is provided. A downlink transmission method of a base station in a the system includes determining, by the base station, whether resources for a terminal are restricted; determining a sub-set of resource blocks for the terminal from among all resource blocks, if the resources for the terminal are restricted; transmitting information about the sub-set of the resource blocks to the terminal; and allocating a first sub-sub-set of the sub-set of the resource blocks for control channel transmission, and a second sub-sub-set of the sub-set of the resource blocks for data channel transmission.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for selecting and allocating antennas efficiently are provided.. The method includes transmitting, to a User Equipment (UE), information indicating a configuration of a plurality of Channel Status Information Reference Signals (CSI-RSs) through UE specific signaling during an initial access attempt with the UE; receiving, from the UE, CSI-RS measurement results indicating configured CSI-RSs; transmitting CSI-RSs corresponding to a set of available distributed ports (D-ports) based on received signal strength information included in results of the CSI-RS measurement; and determining a CSI-RS of a selected D-port set for use in communications based on feedback information received from the UE.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for transmitting processing reference signals in a mobile communication system. A base station determines a reference signal pattern comprising at least one resource element, generates a bitmap indicator indicating whether zero transmission power is assigned to the at least one resource element of the reference signal pattern, and transmits the reference signal pattern and the bitmap indicator to a terminal. The terminal receives the reference signal pattern and the bitmap indicator, and processes a reference signal extracted according to the reference signal pattern and the bitmap indicator.
