Abstract:
1. A method for transmitting data at a relay station (RS) in a wireless communication system using a Time Division Duplex (TDD) frame structure, the TDD frame structure comprising a plurality of TDD frames, each of the plurality of TDD frames comprising a downlink (DL) period and an uplink (UL) period, the method comprising: receiving, by the RS, a subscriber station basic capability response (SBC-RSP) message including mode information of the RS from a base station (BS) during an initial access procedure, the mode information of the RS indicating that a mode of the RS is a transparent mode; receiving, by the RS, mode change indication information from the BS, the mode change indication information indicates a changed mode and a change timing point, wherein the changed mode is a non-transparent mode and the change timing point is represented as a frame number of the non-transparent mode; receiving, by the RS, information related to a starting point of each zone for a RS TDD frame structure of the non-transparent mode; transceiving, by the RS, signals during a RS TDD frame corresponding to the frame number of the non-transparent mode according to the RS TDD frame structure of the non transparent mode; based on the information related to the starting point of each zone for the RS TDD frame structure of the non-transparent mode and the frame number of the non-transparent mode,
