Abstract:
A beamforming apparatus and method for expanding coverage of a control channel are provided, by which neighboring communication devices are classified according to the number of beams that they can receive, and therefore the frequency or period of beam transmission is adjusted to transmit a control channel by a beamforming method. Hence, an overhead reduction and an increase in transmission rate can be achieved, and coverage holes can be prevented.
Abstract:
A method of managing a low-duty mode operation is provided by a small base station. The small base station determines a low-duty cycle pattern in which an available interval for data traffic transmission on active air interface and an unavailable interval for transmitting no data traffic are repeated, and provides a terminal with low-duty cycle pattern information. The low-duty cycle pattern information includes a length of the available interval and a start offset indicating a wireless frame at which the low-duty cycle pattern starts.
Abstract:
An operation method of a terminal in a mobile communication system may comprise: determining whether prediction of a communication failure is needed while performing communication with a base station; in response to determining that prediction of the communication failure is required, performing a communication failure prediction procedure; and in response to predicted occurrence of the communication failure according to a result of performing the communication failure prediction procedure, performing a recovery procedure for the predicted communication failure.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for receiving data by decoding a control channel received in unit of a short transmission time interval (sTTI); and receiving, if a first control channel matched with the terminal is determined based on the decoding result, data in a short resource block set (sRBS) including the first control channel.
Abstract:
A target terminal in a mobile communication system transmits a first uplink cooperative MIMO signal in a first uplink subframe to a cooperating device selected from among a plurality of repeaters for relaying signals and a plurality of terminals except a target terminal for cooperative MIMO transmission and reception, and transmits a second uplink cooperative MIMO signal directly in a second uplink subframe to a base station. The cooperating device amplifies the first uplink cooperative MIMO signal and transmits an amplified first uplink cooperative MIMO signal in the second uplink subframe to the a base station.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method and apparatus for transmitting information in a low latency mobile communication system. Delay time requests are obtained from terminals, and time intervals for transmitting control information for the respective terminals are determined on the basis of the delay time requests. Control information is transmitted to the respective terminals according to the determined time intervals.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a method of beamforming and a 3D antenna array. The method includes: transmitting a first control channel; receiving first feedback information on a first antenna set and a first precoding scheme of a plurality of antenna sets included in the 3D antenna array, which are determined based on the first control channel, from a first communication node different from the communication node; and beamforming a traffic channel to be transmitted to the first communication node using the first antenna set and the first precoding scheme.
Abstract:
A method for a first terminal communicating with a base station to perform direct communication with a second terminal is provided. The first terminal determines first timing for transmitting or receiving a first signal to or from the base station. Next, the first terminal determines second timing for transmitting a second signal for terminal discovery to the second terminal. When the first timing and the second timing overlap, the first terminal then changes either the first timing or the second timing.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an authentication method of a wireless mesh network capable of reducing overload and communication delay during authentication procedure by performing authentication between nodes without accessing an authentication server. The authentication method of a wireless mesh network according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: selecting, by a new node, a first neighbor node among one or more adjacent nodes; transmitting, by the new node, an authentication request message including a public key of the new node; authenticating, by the first neighbor node, the public key of the new node; transmitting, by the first neighbor node, an authentication response message including a public key of the first neighbor node to the new node; and authenticating, by the new node, the public key of the first neighbor node; transmitting, by the new node, an authentication identification message to the first neighbor node.
