Apparatus and method for modulating ranging signals in a broadband wireless access communication system

摘要

An method and apparatus for transmitting ranging information from at least one base station to subscriber stations and generating a ranging signal by the subscriber station using received ranging information in a Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) communication system including a plurality of neighbor cells and a plurality of the subscriber stations located in each cell region. A first code generator generates a first code using different first code information received from the base stations in the neighbor cells allocated the first code information. A second code generator generates a second code using second code information received by each of the subscriber stations existing in cell regions of the neighbor cells. A ranging signal generator generates a new ranging signal by combining the first code with the second code.
