  • Publication number: 20120045011
    Abstract: A method for establishing a cyclic shift sequence to provide against the frequency offset is disclosed. The method calculates a distance between a channel response position of the sequence and an alias channel response position caused by a frequency offset, calculates the number of cyclic shifts per group according to the calculated distance, and establishes the cyclic shift (CS)-applying interval. This method easily establishes a cyclic shift (CS) interval at a specific location having no overlapping by considering a channel response of a reception (Rx) sequence and an alias location of this reception (Rx) sequence, although a reception (Rx) signal is shifted by a channel delay spreading or a propagation delay irrespective of categories of a domain generating a sequence, so that it can greatly reduce the number of the detection errors and the false alarm rate.

  • Publication number: 20120044821
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for monitoring a control channel and an apparatus thereof. A reference carrier is set, and then the multi-carrier sends blind decoding area information based on the reference carrier to monitor a control channel. A terminal monitors the control channel based on the blind decoding area information. The terminal performs blind decoding only for a component carrier required, and thus reduces power consumption and reception complexity.

  • Publication number: 20120039239
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method in which a relay node transmits/receives signals via a specific downlink subframe and a specific uplink subframe. The relay node may consider the propagation delay in accordance with the distance between a base station and the relay node to set a subframe timing for transmitting/receiving signals to/from the base station. The relay node may further consider the delay time of 0.5 symbol, 1 symbol or the like in addition to said propagation delay in the event of setting a downlink receiving timing. Setting an uplink subframe timing of the relay node can be divided into the event the timing is set on the basis of a backhaul link and the event the timing is set on the basis of an access link. In the event thee timing is set on the basis of the access link, the propagation delay can bee double that of the vent the timing is set on the basis of the backhaul link, which should be considered in setting the timing.
