METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING PILOT SIGNAL FOR MACHINE TO MACHINE COMMUNICATION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND APPARATUS THEREOF

摘要

A method for transmitting a pilot signal for machine to machine (M2M) communication in a wireless communication system and an apparatus thereof are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of configuring a basic unit including a plurality of pilot resource elements (REs) and data resource elements; allocating pilot signal to the plurality of pilot resource elements to the basic unit; and transmitting the basic unit to a receiver in a subframe unit in accordance with a rule which is previously defined, wherein the resource elements are time-frequency resources defined by one symbol index and one subcarrier index, and the basic unit is transmitted at a subframe except for a subframe at which a control channel is transmitted.
