Abstract:
An apparatus and a method of pilot transmission to coexist OFDMA(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) and SC-FDMA(Single Carrier-Frequency Division Multiple Access) are provided to use a pilot of a proper form according to a channel environment by allowing a pilot incorporated in an SC-FDMA symbol to have a flexible pattern. An apparatus of pilot transmission to coexist OFDMA and SC-FDMA includes a pilot inserting device(63), an up-sampling processing device(65), an interpolation processor(66), and a cyclic prefix(CP) inserting device(68). The pilot inserting device inserts a pilot into a symbol by receiving pilot information. The up-sampling processing device performs up-sampling parallel data inputted from a serial/parallel converter(64). The interpolation processor performs interpolation for symbols up-sampled by the up-sampling processing device. The cyclic prefix inserting device inserts a cyclic prefix symbol into output data of a parallel/serial converter(67).
Abstract:
Provided is a communication system for transmitting a control channel using a downlink. The communication system transmits information on the transfer of uplink allocation information representing whether uplink allocation information is transmitted, to a terminal using a downlink and the terminal determines whether or not a downlink frame includes uplink allocation information on the basis of the information on the transfer of the uplink allocation information. In addition, a base station transmits information on resources to the terminal through which a downlink physical control channel can be transmitted; and the terminal decodes a downlink control channel only within available resources through which a downlink physical control channel can be transmitted.
