Also, the HE preamble may include a HE signal A (HE-SIG-A) field, a HE signal B (HE-SIG-B) field, a HE short training field (HE-STF), and a HE long training field (HE-LTF), and the HE-SIG-A field may include information indicating the number of symbols of the HE-SIG-B field. Accordingly, a performance of the WLAN may be enhanced. | 2016-05-26 |
20160150515 | TERMINAL RECEIVING RESOURCE BLOCK ALLOCATION AND METHOD THEREFOR - In a wireless communication base station device, a modulation unit carries out modulation processing for Dch data after coding to generate a Dch data symbol. A modulation unit carries out modulation processing for Lch data after coding to generate an Lch data symbol. An allocation unit allocates the Dch data symbol and Lch data symbol to each sub-carrier composing an OFDM symbol and outputs the allocated sub-carrier to a multiplex unit. In this case, the allocation unit allocates the Dch data symbol to a plurality of resource blocks where one Dch is arranged at an interval equal to integral multiples of the number of resource blocks composing a resource block group. | 2016-05-26 |
20160150516 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, BASE STATION, AND CONTROL METHOD - [Problem] To provide a wireless communication system, a base station, and a control method, whereby it is possible for the base station to control an active antenna transmission beam wherein an upstream reference signal is used. [Solution] A wireless communication system comprises a first base station further comprising an active antenna, and a second base station which is adjacent to the first base station. Using an upstream reference signal from a wireless terminal, the second base station estimates a direction of the wireless terminal with respect to the second base station, and transmits direction information which is the estimated result and location information of the second base station to the first base station. The first base station receives the direction information and the location information of the second base station, and, on the basis of the direction information, the location information of the second base station, and location information of the first base station, controls a transmission beam of the active antenna of the first base station. | 2016-05-26 |
