A transmitting method includes: configuring a frame using a plurality of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols, by allocating time resources and frequency resources to a plurality of transmission data; and transmitting the frame, wherein the frame includes a first period in which a preamble which includes information on a frame configuration of the frame is transmitted, and a second period in which the plurality of transmission data are transmitted by at least one of time division and frequency division, and among the plurality of OFDM symbols, OFDM symbols included in the second period include pilot symbols arranged along a time axis with a predetermined spacing therebetween, and a predetermined number of data symbols.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Synchronization signals may be transmitted using a set of phase offsets over different component carriers or using a single component carrier for each antenna port. For example, a base station may identify a set of synchronization signals (e.g., a set of primary synchronization signals (PSSs)) to be transmitted over one or multiple component carriers. In some cases, each PSS may be associated with a different component carrier, and the base station may apply a different phase offset to each PSS when transmitting the set of PSSs on the component carriers. In some examples, the base station may transmit the PSSs on the component carriers using a different antenna port for each component carrier.

The present invention is designed so that it is possible to reduce the measurement-induced increase of load and power consumption in user terminals even when the number of component carriers that can be configured per user terminal is expanded. A user terminal communicates with a radio base station that configures groups (TAGs) comprised of one or more cells, and has a receiving section that receives information related to component carriers (CCs) included in the groups, and a measurement section that makes measurements on a per group basis based on the information related to the component carriers.

Transmission of user equipment (UE) specific control information within a resource allocation including resource blocks allocated for downlink transmissions to the UE is disclosed. Common control information may be provided in a first transmission time interval (TTI)-level control region, and UE-specific control information, specific to a particular UE, may be provided along with data in allocated downlink resources to the UE. A base station may identify a resource block (RB) for transmission of data to a UE along with UE-specific control information to be included in the RB. The control information may include, for example, parameters for use by the receiver in demodulating the RB. The base station may multiplex the control information with the data within the RB and transmit the RB and control information.
