Abstract
There are provided a data transmission and reception method of a machine type communication (MTC) device, and an MTC device using the same. The data transmission and reception method of the MTC device includes: extracting information related to an MTC band from a downlink frame received from a base station, searching for an MTC downlink resource region in the downlink frame based on the information related to the MTC band, and extracting MTC data for the corresponding MTC device from the MTC downlink resource region. The MTC band includes a band through which at least a physical broadcast channel and a synchronization channel are transmitted.
Claims15
A data transmission and reception method of a machine type communication (MTC) device, comprising:
