The present invention is designed to provide a user terminal, a radio base station and a radio communication method of novel structures that can achieve a good communication environment. A radio base station non-orthogonal-multiplexes downlink signals for a plurality of user terminals over a given radio resource, a user terminal having received the downlink signals for the plurality of user terminals decodes downlink signal for another user terminal, judges whether or not the downlink signal for the other user terminal has been successfully received, based on the decoding result of the downlink signal, reports a judgement result as to whether or not the downlink signal for the other user terminal has been successfully received and a judgement result as to whether or not a downlink signal for the user terminal has been successfully received, to the radio base station, and then the radio base station executes retransmission control of downlink signals based on reports from the user terminal.

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more particularly, discloses a method and apparatus for reducing inter-cell interference in a wireless communication system. The method for reducing inter-cell interference in a wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a step in which a first terminal receives, from a first cell, scheduling information for the transmission of a first signal to a second cell; and a step in which the first terminal transmits the first signal to the second cell on the basis of the scheduling information. The scheduling information is provided by the first cell in the event an uplink or downlink transmission of the first cell is interfered with by an uplink or downlink transmission of the second cell. The first signal indicates a request for reducing the transmitting power of the second cell or of the second terminal served by the second cell.

A first user equipment (UE) and a second UE communicate with a network element (e.g., an eNB) over a carrier (e.g., an uplink or downlink cellular carrier). The first and second UEs also engage in D2D communication using resources of the carrier that have been allocated to them by the network entity. Using the allocated resources, the first and second UEs communicate using a subframe that has a first set of symbols in during which the first UE transmits, a second set of symbols during which the second UE transmits, and a guard interval between the first and second UEs.

A method and apparatus for handover in a wireless communication system. A connection can be established with a mobile station (110). A measurement report can be received at a source base station (120) from the mobile station. The source base station can determine that the mobile station should perform a handover from the source base station to the target base station (130). Timing advance information can be received at the source base station from the target base station. The timing advance information can be forwarded from the source base station to the mobile station. A connection of the mobile station can be switched from the source base station to the target base station.
