Method for terminal communicating in mmWave communication system and terminal
Disclosed is a terminal for performing a mmWave communication method and a mmWave communication method comprising: receiving information relating to a basic UL/DL configuration from a mmWave base station; generating statistical information relating to a mmWave downlink channel using a reference signal received from the mmWave base station, according to the basic UL/DL configuration; transmitting the statistical information to the mmWave base station through a legacy uplink; and receiving, from the mmWave base station, information relating to the UL/DL configuration which has been modified according to the statistical information.
1. A communication method for a User Equipment (UE) supporting a millimeter wave (mmWave) communication system, the method comprising:
receiving information on a default uplink/downlink (UL/DL) configuration from a mmWave Base Station (BS);
generating statistical information on a mmWave DL channel using a reference signal received from the mmWave BS according to the default UL/DL configuration;
transmitting the statistical information to the mmWave BS via legacy UL;
receiving, from the mmWave BS, information on a UL/DL configuration that is modified based on the statistical information,
wherein the information on the default UL/DL configuration is received from a mmWave System Information Block (SIB) broadcast by the mmWave BS, and
aligning synchronization of mmWave UL, mmWave DL, and the legacy UL using the mmWave SIB.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the statistical information includes information on changes of the mmWave DL channel and information on average blocking probability of the mmWave DL.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mmWave communication system is configured to a Time Division Duplex (TDD) system.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the statistical information is information on any one cell among a plurality of beamforming cells that can be configured by the mmWave BS.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising performing communication with the mmWave BS in the any one cell according to the modified UL/DL configuration.
6. A User Equipment (UE) for supporting a millimeter wave (mmWave) communication system, the UE comprising:
a transmitter;
a receiver; and
a processor connected to the transmitter and the receiver,
wherein the processor is configured to:
control the receiver to receive information on a default uplink/downlink (UL/DL) configuration from a mmWave Base Station (BS);
generate statistical information on a mmWave DL channel using a reference signal received from the mmWave BS according to the default UL/DL configuration;
control the transmitter to transmit the statistical information to the mmWave BS via legacy UL;
control the receiver to receive, from the mmWave BS, information on a UL/DL configuration that is modified based on the statistical information,
wherein the information on the default UL/DL configuration is received from a mmWave System Information Block (SIB) broadcast by the mmWave BS, and
align synchronization of mmWave UL, mmWave DL, and the legacy UL using the mmWave SIB.
7. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the statistical information includes information on changes of the mmWave DL channel and information on average blocking probability of the mmWave DL.
8. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the mmWave communication system is configured to a Time Division Duplex (TDD) system.
9. The UE of claim 6 , wherein the statistical information is information on any one cell among a plurality of beamforming cells that can be configured by the mmWave BS.
10. The UE of claim 9 , wherein the processor is configured to perform communication with the mmWave BS in the any one cell according to the modified UL/DL configuration.
