System and method for trasmitting/receving a signal in a communication system

摘要

Disclosed is a system and method for transmitting/receiving a signal in a communication system. In the system and method, a base station transmits data to a first relay station, which is connected directly thereto from among relay stations belonging to a first relay station group, through a first frame interval, and transmits data to a second relay station, which is connected directly thereto from among relay stations belonging to a second relay station group, through a second frame interval subsequent to the first frame interval. In the first frame interval or the second frame interval where no data is received from the base station, each of the first and second relay stations transmits data to a next relay station connected directly thereto within the same relay station group, and communicates data with a mobile station in direct communication therewith.

1. A method of transmitting/receiving a signal in a communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a first Relay Station(RS), data from a Base Station (BS) through a first frame interval, the first RS that is connected directly to the BS from among RSs belonging to a first RS group; and receiving, by a second RS, data from the BS through a second frame interval, the second RS that is connected directly to the BS from among RSs belonging to a second RS group, wherein a data is transmitted and received between the BS and the first RS belonging to the first RS group, between the second RS and at least one of a fourth RS belonging to the second RS group, and between the second RS and a second Mobile Station (MS) connected directly to the second RS through the first frame interval, and wherein a data is transmitted and received between the BS and the second RS belonging to the second RS group, between the first RS and at least one of a third RS belonging to the first RS group, and between the first RS and a first MS connected directly to the first RS through the second frame interval.
