US 2016/0080136 A1 · COMMUNICATION METHOD CONSIDERING CARRIER TYPE AND APPARATUS FOR SAME

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method in which a user equipment (UE) receives a signal in a time division duplex (TDD) wireless communication system and an apparatus for the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method comprising the steps of: receiving a first downlink signal in a first subframe including a downlink interval, a protection interval, and an uplink interval; and demodulating the first downlink signal, wherein the first downlink signal is demodulated using a cell-common reference signal when the downlink interval includes a predetermined number of symbols or less, and the first downlink signal is demodulated using a UE-specific reference signal when the downlink interval includes the predetermined number of symbols or more, and an apparatus for the same.

Dependent claims

A method for receiving a signal by a user equipment (UE) in a time division duplex (TDD) wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving a first downlink signal in a first subframe comprising a downlink period, a guard period, and an uplink period;
and
demodulating the first downlink signal,
wherein when the downlink period consists of symbols less than or equal to a specific number, the first downlink signal is demodulated using a cell-common reference signal, and
wherein when the downlink period consists of symbols more than the specific number, the first downlink signal is demodulated using a UE-specific reference signal.
