Abstract

Provided are a data receiving method supporting an expansion modulation scheme and a wireless device using the same. The wireless device receives expansion sub-frame information indicating at least one expansion sub-frame supporting the expansion modulation scheme among a plurality of sub-frames and receives downlink data according to the expansion sub-frame information.

Claims (22)

1. A method for receiving data in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, by a wireless device, expansion subframe information indicating at least one expansion subframe, in which an expansion modulation scheme is supported, among a plurality of subframes;

receiving, by the wireless device, downlink control information that includes a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field indicating the expansion modulation scheme on a downlink control channel, in the at least one expansion subframe; and

receiving, by the wireless device, downlink data on a downlink shared channel according to the downlink control information,

wherein the at least one expansion subframe that supports the expansion modulation scheme has a modulation order of 8, and wherein a non-expansion subframe, among the plurality of subframes, has a modulation order of less than 8, and

wherein the expansion modulation scheme includes 256-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM).

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MCS field has different bit numbers in the at least one expansion subframe than in the non-expansion subframe.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the MCS field has a same bit number in the at least one expansion subframe than in the non-expansion subframe.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein MCS tables for the MCS field in the at least one expansion subframe are different than the MCS tables for the MCS field in the non-expansion subframe.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the expansion subframe information includes information on a plurality of expansion frame sets, and

wherein MCS table is defined for each of the plurality of expansion frame sets.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein at least one of a plurality of MCS tables for the plurality of expansion frame sets is an expansion MCS table including the expansion modulation scheme, and

wherein a channel quality indicator (CQI) table related to the expansion MCS table includes the expansion modulation scheme.

7. A wireless device in a wireless communication system, the wireless device comprising:

a receiver; and

a processor connected to the receiver,

wherein the processor controls the receiver to:

receive expansion subframe information indicating at least one expansion subframe, in which an expansion modulation scheme is supported, among a plurality of subframes;

receive downlink control information that includes a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field indicating the expansion modulation scheme on a downlink control channel, in the at least one expansion subframe; and

receive downlink data on a downlink shared channel according to the downlink control information,

wherein the at least one expansion subframe that supports the expansion modulation scheme has a modulation order of 8, and wherein a non-expansion subframe, among the plurality of subframes, has a modulation order of less than 8, and

wherein the expansion modulation scheme includes 256-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM).
