Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for inserting a downlink common pilot in a TDD system and more particularly to a method for inserting a downlink common pilot in a TDD system based on OFDMA technology and the method includes two steps. A: data to be transmitted are divided into several segments to be transmitted in several continuous time periods, wherein each time period includes several slots with at least one downlink slot; B: a common pilot is inserted in one downlink slot in the time period. Therefore, the scheduling based on the frequency domain can be achieved by measuring the common pilot channel.
