Abstract
The present invention relates a method and apparatus for transmitting/receiving data using multiple codewords in a communication system using SC-FDMA (single carrier frequency division multiple access). A transmitter generates the multiple codewords for user data and transmits the generated multiple codewords. A receiver receives the multiple codewords and sequentially performs decoding and SIC (successive interference cancellation) on the received multiple codewords. Therefore, this structure can minimize a PAPR (peak to average power ratio) and considerably reduces interference between symbols in a frequency selective fading environment.
