FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to communication. Disclosed is a frame structure for supporting large delay spread deployment scenarios (e.g., cellular system operation in large cell sizes or low frequency bands). In this regard a method is presented, which involves partitioning a radio frame into a plurality of equal-sized (or non-equal-sized) sub-frames to simplify system implementation.
EFFECT: using a longer cyclic prefix with a long delay of propagation of radio signals to mitigate interference effects.
