Abstract:
An operation method of a relay node may include: receiving, from a first communication node, first data composed of n bits; receiving, from a second communication node, second data composed of m bits; in response to determining that n is greater than m, generating first T-data of m bits excluding (n−m) bits from the n-bits of the first data and first R-data of (n−m) bits; generating third data by performing a network coding operation on the first T-data and the second data; transmitting the third data to the first communication node; and transmitting the third data and the first R-data to the second communication node.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method for generating a random access signal of a machine type communication (MTC) device using a narrow bandwidth, and an MTC device. The method generates a random access signal by allocating a position in a frequency domain of a random access signal dedicated to the MTC device, that is, a position of a frequency for transmission of a random access preamble, to a center position of a base station system bandwidth, or by shifting a center frequency of the MTC device to a position of a random access frequency allocated for a legacy LTE terminal by a base station.
