1. A method for transmitting a Downlink (DL) signal from a Base Station (BS) in a communication system, comprising:
- generating a first DL signal to be commonly received by all Mobile Stations (MSs) at the BS and a second DL signal that all the MSs do not need to commonly receive;
transmitting the first DL signal in a first time interval by applying the first DL signal to an interference cancellation scheme; and
transmitting the second DL signal in a second time interval.

Abstract
In a communication system, a first Downlink (DL) signal to be commonly received by all Mobile Stations (MSs) at a Base Station (BS) is generated. A second DL signal that all the MSs do not need to commonly receive is generated. The first DL signal is applied to an interference cancellation scheme. The first DL signal is transmitted in a first time interval. The second DL signal is transmitted in a second time interval.

12. A method for transmitting a Downlink (DL) signal from a Base Station (BS) in a communication system, comprising:
-
(a) adding a DL MAP information element to be periodically transmitted in a DL MAP message;
(b) performing an Uplink (UL) scheduling process and generating a UL MAP message reflecting a UL scheduling result;
(c) scheduling a common control message;
(d) scheduling a dedicated burst signal that all Mobile Stations (MSs) at the BS do not need to receive;
(e) adding scheduling information to the DL MAP message on a basis of a dedicated burst signal scheduling result;
(f) repeating steps (d) and (e) until DL resources to be additionally allocated are not present;
(g) transmitting the DL MAP message, the UL MAP message and the common control message in a first time interval by applying the DL MAP message, the UL MAP message and the common control message to an interference cancellation scheme; and
(h) transmitting the dedicated burst signal in a second time interval. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
