Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The radio communication node transmits and receives radio signals, and configures transmission and reception frequencies of the radio signals for each radio link or each radio communication node.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1 . A terminal comprising: a transceiver that transmits and receives synchronization signals; and a processor that configures different transmission frequencies and measurement windows for the synchronization signals for each radio link or each radio communication node in a plurality of radio communication nodes of a network comprising the terminal, wherein: the transmission frequencies are configured using a starting resource block and a number of resource blocks, and the measurement windows are configured using a frame slot number and an offset from a received synchronization signal block. 2 . A radio communication method comprising: transmitting/receiving synchronization signals using a terminal of a network; and configuring, using the terminal, different transmission frequencies and measurement windows for the synchronization signals for each radio link or each radio communication node in a plurality of radio communication nodes of the network, wherein: the transmission frequencies are configured using a starting resource block and a number of resource blocks, and the measurement windows are configured using a frame slot number and an offset from a received synchronization signal block. 3 . The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the transceiver reports to the network the terminal's capability to configure for each radio link or each radio communication node. 4 . The terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to replace transmission frequencies according to a number of communication hops to at least one radio communication node. 5 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising replacing, using the terminal, transmission frequencies according to a number of communication hops to at least one radio communication node.
