Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are an uplink transmission method and downlink transmission method in a mobile communication network including a relay. In the uplink and downlink transmission methods, frame structures and transmission timings of a backhaul downlink and a backhaul uplink are determined in consideration of at least one of a time for the relay to switch between transmission and reception and a signal transmission time. Accordingly, in a wireless communication system including a relay, it is possible to effectively perform data transmission and reception between the relay and a base station.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A downlink transmission method of a base station in a mobile communication network including a relay, comprising: transmitting a backhaul downlink signal to the relay using backhaul downlink symbols starting from the subsequent symbol of at least one excluded symbol of a base station access downlink subframe and ending with the last symbol of the base station access downlink subframe, wherein the at least one excluded symbol includes a predetermined…
