Abstract:
Provided is a communication system for a multi-cell cooperative communication. A serving base station and at least one neighboring base station may communicate with at least one terminal through mutual cooperation. Each of the serving base station and the at least one neighboring base station may shift a phase of at least one element among elements included in a precoding matrix, using a phase shift matrix, and precode at least one data symbol. A terminal may feed back preferred phase shift matrix information to the serving base station, so that the serving base station and the at least one neighboring base station may adaptively determine a phase shift matrix. The terminal may calculate the phase shift matrix with small calculation amounts. The serving base station, the at least one neighboring base station, and the terminal may pre-store a plurality of candidate matrices with respect to the phase shift matrix.
Abstract:
Provided is a precoding matrix design method for a cooperative communication of multiple base stations in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) communication system. A method of designing a precoding matrix in a base station of the MIMO communication system may include: determining whether to use a cooperative communication; verifying a cooperative base station when the cooperative communication is determined to be used; selecting a precoding matrix to be applied by a home base station and the cooperative base station; and requesting the home base station and the cooperative base station for the cooperative communication using the selected precoding matrix.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for generating and transmitting a reference signal in a clustered DFT-spread OFDM transmission scheme. A method for generating and transmitting a DM-RS in a clustered DFT-spread-OFDM scheme comprises: a step of generating DM-RS sequences corresponding to the number of clusters allocated for an uplink transmission; and a step of mapping the generated DM-RS sequences to the relevant DM-RS symbol positions for each cluster. Accordingly, the method for generating and transmitting a reference signal according to the present invention, in which DM-RS sequences are allocated and transmitted on a cluster basis, uses a complete DM-RS sequence for each cluster, and therefore inter-cell interference can be weakened, and problems which might occur when applied to a multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) scheme can be solved.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a cooperative communication method, in which a plurality of cells performs multiple antenna transmission and receiving cooperatively with each other in a cellular wireless system, and a terminal transmits channel state information (CSI) wirelessly to a serving cell and to at least one cooperative cell such that the serving cell and the cooperative cell use the CSI to perform multipoint communication. Although the serving cell and the cooperative cell may be of different base stations from each other, the transmission delay and traffic increase in a backhaul network can be prevented by minimizing information exchange between these cells.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of applying a transmission diversity scheme in a multiple cell cooperative communication system in which a terminal may receive, from a plurality of base stations, identical data using an identical radio resource. In the method, base stations of a cooperative base station involved in a cooperative communication may apply the transmission diversity scheme using the same resource as time and frequency resources used to apply the transmission diversity scheme in a base station of a serving base station.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a data transmission device for transmitting a reference OFDM symbol generated through the application of the frequency division multiplexing to a reference symbol and a data symbol, and a data receiving device for estimating a channel by using the reference OFDM symbol. The data transmission device is capable of transmitting the reference OFDM symbol to the data receiving device more frequently without a large increase of a PAPR through the frequency multiplexing of the reference and data symbols. Therefore, the data receiving device is able to estimate the channel exactly.
