Abstract

The present invention proposes a method, apparatus and device for relay user selection and downlink resource allocation in a base station of a relay communication system. Specifically the base station performs relay user selection and downlink resource allocation according to a pattern of a cell-specific reference signal thereof and/or a reception demodulation scheme of a mobile terminal. With the method, apparatus or device according to the invention, it is possible to alleviate and even eliminate influence of overlapping cell-specific reference signals upon the performance of reception demodulation at a user terminal.
