Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method of transceiving a signal between a transmitter and a receiver in a wireless communication system. The method includes transceiving the signal in units of a subframe including a plurality of symbols. Each of the plurality of symbols includes a valid symbol and a cyclic prefix, and a length of the cyclic prefix is changed according to a distance between the transmitter and the receiver.

Claims (23)

1. A method of transceiving a signal between a transmitter and a receiver in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transceiving the signal in units of a subframe including a plurality of symbols,

wherein each of the plurality of symbols consists of a valid symbol and a cyclic prefix,

wherein the cyclic prefix is a first cyclic prefix or a second cyclic prefix,

wherein a length of the second cyclic prefix is shorter than a length of the first cyclic prefix,

wherein a number of the plurality of symbols in the subframe varies on a time axis based on a length of the cyclic prefix,

wherein only a first symbol of the subframe includes the first cyclic prefix and remaining symbols of the subframe include the second cyclic prefix, and

wherein each symbol used for transmitting a synchronization signal among the plurality of symbols includes the first cyclic prefix.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, the synchronization signal includes a primary synchronization signal or a secondary synchronization signal.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a number of symbols on a frequency axis is fixed in the subframe.

4. An apparatus for transceiving a signal in a wireless communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a transceiver configured to transceive signals; and

a processor configured to:

control the transceiver; and

tranceive the signal from a transmitter in units of a subframe including a plurality of symbols,

wherein each of the plurality of symbols consists of a valid symbol and a cyclic prefix,

wherein the cyclic prefix is a first cyclic prefix or a second cyclic prefix,

wherein a length of the second cyclic prefix is shorter than a length of the first cyclic prefix,

wherein a number of the plurality of symbols in the subframe varies on a time axis based on a length of the cyclic prefix,

wherein only a first symbol of the subframe includes the first cyclic prefix and remaining symbols of the subframe include the second cyclic prefix, and

wherein each symbol used for transmitting a synchronization signal among the plurality of symbols includes the first cyclic prefix.

5. The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the synchronization signal includes a primary synchronization signal or a secondary synchronization signal.

6. The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein a number of symbols on a frequency axis is fixed in the subframe.
