Abstract

An apparatus and method for transmitting data restoration information in a communication system are provided, in which a BS transmits first data in a first zone of a frame, transmits second data in a second zone of the frame, transmits first data restoration information for restoring the first data in the first zone, and transmits second data restoration information for restoring the second data in the second zone. The first data comprises the same data as data transmitted simultaneously by at least one repeater and the second data comprises data that is different from data transmitted by the at least one repeater.

Claims

1. A method for transmitting data restoration information in a Base Station (BS), the method comprising:

transmitting first data in a first zone of a frame;

transmitting second data in a second zone of the frame;

transmitting first data restoration information for restoring the first data in the first zone; and

transmitting second data restoration information for restoring the second data in the second zone,

wherein the first data comprises the same data as data transmitted simultaneously by at least one repeater and the second data comprises data that is different from data transmitted by the at least one repeater.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein each of the first data restoration information and the second data restoration information comprises a MAP.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising transmitting at least one piece of information required for detecting the second data restoration information in the first zone.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the at least one piece of information indicates a start of the second zone.

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising transmitting information required for detecting the second data restoration information in a Frame Control Header (FCH) of the frame.

6. A method for receiving data restoration information in a Mobile Station (MS), the method comprising:

detecting first data restoration information for restoring first data in a first zone of a frame when frame signal is received;

detecting second data restoration information for restoring second data in a second zone of the frame;

restoring the first data based on the first data restoration information; and

restoring the second data based on the second data restoration information,

wherein the first data comprises the same data as data transmitted simultaneously by at least one repeater and the second data comprises data that is different from data transmitted by the at least one repeater.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein each of the first data restoration information and the second data restoration information comprises a MAP.

8. The method of claim 6, further comprising receiving at least one piece of information required for detecting the second data restoration information in the first zone.

9. The method of claim 8, wherein the at least one piece of information indicates a start of the second zone.

10. The method of claim 6, further comprising receiving information required for detecting the second data restoration information in a Frame Control Header (FCH) of the frame.

11. An apparatus for transmitting data restoration information in a communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a Base Station (BS) for transmitting first data in a first zone of a frame, for transmitting second data in a second zone of the frame, for transmitting first data restoration information for restoring the first data in the first zone, and for transmitting second data restoration information for restoring the second data in the second zone,

wherein the first data comprises the same data as data transmitted simultaneously by at least one repeater and the second data comprises data that is different from data transmitted by the at least one repeater.

12. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein each of the first data restoration information and the second data restoration information comprises a MAP.

13. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the BS transmits at least one piece of information required for detecting the second data restoration information in the first zone.

14. The apparatus of claim 13, wherein the at least one piece of information indicates a start of the second zone.

15. The apparatus of claim 13, wherein the BS transmits information required for detecting the second data restoration information in a Frame Control Header (FCH) of the frame.

16. An apparatus for receiving data restoration information in a communication system, the apparatus comprising:

a Mobile Station (MS) for detecting first data restoration information for restoring first data in a first zone of a frame when frame signal is received, for detecting second data restoration information for restoring second data in a second zone of the frame, for restoring the first data based on the first data restoration information, and for restoring the second data based on the second data restoration information,

wherein the first data comprises the same data as data transmitted simultaneously by at least one repeater and the second data comprises data that is different from data transmitted by the at least one repeater.

17. The apparatus of claim 16, wherein each of the first data restoration information and the second data restoration information comprises a MAP.

18. The apparatus of claim 16, wherein the MS receives at least one piece of information required for detecting the second data restoration information in the first zone.

19. The apparatus of claim 18, wherein the at least one piece of information indicates a start of the second zone.

20. The apparatus of claim 16, wherein the MS receives information required for detecting the second data restoration information in a Frame Control Header (FCH) of the frame.
