Abstract
A method of transmitting a signal by a base station in a beam forming-based communication system is provided. The method includes: transmitting the signal using a transmission beam having at least one of a beam width and a transmission period in reverse proportion to one of a distance between a position of a transmission target region of the transmission beam for transmitting the signal within a service coverage of the base station and the base station and a size or area of the transmission target region.

A method of transmitting a signal by a base station in a beam forming-based communication system, the method comprising:
- transmitting the signal using a transmission beam having at least one of a beam width and a transmission period in reverse proportion to one of a distance between a position of a transmission target region of the transmission beam for transmitting the signal within a service coverage of the base station and the base station and a size or area of the transmission target region.
A method of receiving a signal by a terminal in a beam forming-based communication system, the method comprising:
- receiving the signal transmitted using a transmission beam having at least one of a beam width and a transmission period in reverse proportion to one of a distance between a position of a transmission target region of the transmission beam for transmitting the signal within a service coverage of the base station and the base station and a size or area of the transmission target region;
- correcting a reception intensity of the signal using information for beam widths of transmission beams and an antenna gain for each beam width, the information being received through a broadcast channel;
- and
- determining an optimal transmission beam having a maximum reception intensity among transmission beams that transmit the signal.
A base station that transmits a signal in a beam forming-based communication system, the base station comprises:
- a transmission unit configured to transmit the signal using a transmission beam having at least one of a beam width and a transmission period in reverse proportion to one of a distance between a position of a transmission target region of the transmission beam for transmitting the signal within a service coverage of the base station and the base station and a size or area of the transmission target region.
A terminal for receiving a signal in a beam forming-based communication system, the terminal comprising:
- a reception unit configured to receive the signal transmitted using a transmission beam having at least one of a beam width and a transmission period in reverse proportion to one of a distance between a position of a transmission target region of the transmission beam for transmitting the signal within a service coverage of the base station and the base station and a size or area of the transmission target region;
- and
- a controller configured to correct a reception intensity of the signal using information for beam widths of transmission beams and an antenna gain for each beam width, the information being received through a broadcast channel, and to determine an optimal transmission beam having a maximum reception intensity among transmission beams that transmit the signal.
