A first exemplary embodiment provides a method performed by a wireless device (10) for handling communication of the wireless device in a wireless communication network, wherein the wireless communication network comprises a first radio network node (12) and a second radio network node (13), which first radio network node (12) serves the wireless device (10). The wireless device receives an indication indicating a mapping between one or more channel state information reference signals, CSI-RS, and one or more random access channel, RACH, configurations. The wireless device receives one or more CSI-RSs from the second radio network node (13), and selects a CSI-RS out of the one or more received CSI-RSs. The wireless device further initiates a random access procedure towards the second radio network node (13) using at least part of the RACH configuration mapped to the selected CSI-RS.

The present invention provides methods for configuring and transmitting a positioning reference signal (PRS) used for estimating the location of a machine type communication (MTC) terminal in a wireless access system supporting machine type communication (MTC), and an apparatus for supporting the same. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for transmitting, by a base station, a positioning reference signal (PRS) used for estimating the location of a machine type communication (MTC) terminal in a wireless access system supporting MTC, comprises the steps of: repeating transmission of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) including the same downlink data N times; and transmitting the PRS in a PRS subframe (SF), wherein when the PRS SF consists of a normal subframe (SF) and a multimedia broadcast multicast service single frequency network (MBSFN) SF, a normal cyclic prefix (CP) is used as a CP to be applied to the PRS, and when the PRS SF consists of only the MBSFN SF, a CP applied to the PRS may be an extended CP.

A system and method identifying at least one aggressor cell. The method comprises transmitting at least one subframe from at least one base station of a first set of base stations to a second set of base stations, wherein the at least one subframe further comprises of at least one downlink subframe, at least uplink subframe and at least one special subframe. The second set of base stations decodes the at least one received subframe, and maps each of the at least one received downlink subframe, at least one received uplink subframe and at least one received special subframe of the at least one received subframe to at least one expected subframe. Lastly, at least one aggressor cell is determined based on a mismatch of the at least one received subframe and the at least one expected subframe.

Provided are a method whereby user equipment (UE) receives downlink control information in a wireless communication system and UE using the method. The method comprises: receiving configuration information (MUCC-DCI configuration information) on multi-carrier downlink control information (MUCC-DCI) that may include pieces of scheduling information related to multiple serving cells; and performing blind decoding (BD) on the MUCC-DCI in a shared search space (shared SS) determined on the basis of the MUCC-DCI configuration information.
