Abstract

A method of transmitting a synchronization signal in a multi-node system having a plurality of nodes and a base station for controlling the plurality of node is provided. The method includes: generating a synchronization signal sequence; and mapping the generated synchronization signal sequence to a resource element, and thereafter transmitting the mapped synchronization signal sequence to a user equipment via at least one node among the plurality of nodes, wherein the synchronization signal sequence is generated based on an identifier (ID) of a transmission node for transmitting the synchronization signal sequence.
