Method for transmitting physical layer ID information
A method for transmitting IDs of cells of a specific type as physical cell ID information in addition to existing cell ID information is disclosed. For transmission of the physical cell ID information, the number of cell IDs used in transmitting the existing cell ID information on a synchronization channel is increased or a part of existing cell IDs are reserved for transmitting the additional specific-cell ID information. If the number of cell IDs is to be increased, the number of cell ID groups related to a secondary synchronization channel is increased in a manner that removes ambiguity and collision, a cell ID related to a primary synchronization channel is added, which satisfies conjugate symmetry, information is transmitted based on a transmission timing relationship between a primary synchronization code and a secondary synchronization code, or a scrambling scheme is modified. When a part of the existing cell IDs are reserved, conjugate symmetry is also considered in relation to a primary synchronization channel and ambiguity and collision are also considered in relation to a secondary synchronization channel.
1. A method for transmitting physical layer cell Identifier (ID) information, the method comprising:
transmitting a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) and a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS)
wherein a time relationship corresponding to a transmission order between the PSS and the SSS represents the physical layer cell ID information
wherein the physical layer cell ID information corresponds to a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) cell ID when the SSS is transmitted after the PSS and corresponds to a non-CSG cell ID when the PSS is transmitted after the SSS.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the physical layer cell ID information represents cell ID information of a serving cell and service property information of the serving cell, the service property information of the serving cell represents at least one of information indicating whether the serving cell is a Closed Subscriber Group (CSG) cell or a Relay Station (RS) cell, a Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (MBMS) indicator, and a hot spot indicator, and the cell ID information of the serving cell represents a whole or part of an ID of the serving cell.
