Method for performing machine type communication for the purpose of coverage improvement, apparatuses and systems for performing the same
First Claim
1. A terminal for receiving a downlink communication from a base station to the terminal, the terminal comprising:
- a transceiver that transmits and receives a radio signal; and
a processor operatively coupled with the transceiver and configured to;
receive system information, control information and/or data from the base station using a system bandwidth;
wherein the system information includes at least one of Master Information Block (MIB) and System Information Block (SIB),wherein the system information, the control information and/or the data is received from the base station repetitively,wherein the reception of the Master Information Block (MIB) relates to a reception of same signal repetitively and/or a reception of same data with different types of signal repetitively, andwherein the different types of signal is a signal encoded differently.

Abstract
A method of performing a downlink machine type communication from a base station to a MTC (machine type communication) terminal includes, at the base station, transmitting at least one of a system information—the system information excluding a Master Information Block (MIB)—, a control information and data to the MTC terminal using a system bandwidth having a predetermined size. The base station performs frequency hopping using a frequency hopping pattern in a unit of narrow band on the at least one of the system information—the system information excluding a Master Information Block (MIB)—, the control information and the data to transmit to the MTC terminal, and the narrow band is less than the system bandwidth.
