In a method for efficient retransmission of data, symbol accumulation is used to retransmit a packet received in error at a lower energy-per-bit level concurrently in the same frame with a new packet. The destination device receives the data transmission and retransmission, demodulates the signal, and separates the received data into the new and retransmitted packet. The destination device then accumulates the energy of the retransmitted packet with the energy already accumulated for the packet received in error and decodes the accumulated packet. The accumulation of the additional energy provided by the subsequent retransmissions improves the probability of a correct decoding. The throughput rate can be improved since the packet received in error is retransmitted concurrently with the transmission of the new data packet. The capacity is maximized since the retransmission of the packet received in error is at a lower energy level than that of the new packet. The method includes puncturing the code symbols of a data packet for transmission in accordance with a first puncturing pattern. If decoding of the punctured transmitted packet of data is unsuccessful, a negative acknowledgement is received at the source device and the code symbols of the data packet are then punctured in accordance with a second pattern for transmission in response to the receipt of the negative acknowledgement.

Techniques to support independent power control of multiple channels in CDMA systems (e.g., a W-CDMA system) that define a single power control feedback steam on the uplink, which is to be used for downlink power control. In one aspect, the single feedback stream is 'time shared' among multiple channels requiring individual power control. Various time-sharing schemes may be used to implement multiple (substantially parallel) feedback substreams based on the single feedback stream, and different combination of feedback rates may also be achieved for the substreams. Each feedback substream may be assigned to, and used for power control of, a respective channel. In another aspect, multiple feedback substreams are implemented based on multiple fields in newly defined slot formats.

Techniques for determining valid (i.e., supported) TFCs from among all configured TFCs for normal and compressed modes. These techniques maintain sufficient historical information such that 'TFC qualification' may be accurately performed. In a first scheme, Tx_power_requirement states are maintained for different combinations of each TFC. One combination is applicable for each TFC at each TFC interval, and valid TFCs are determined from applicable combinations in the proper state(s). In a second scheme, two Tx_power_requirement states are maintained for each TFC for the normal and compressed modes. In a third scheme, a single Tx_power_requirement state is maintained for each TFC for both modes based on a particular relative power requirement. In a fourth scheme, Tx_power_requirement states are maintained for a set of relative 'bins' that cover the total range of required transmit power for all TFCs. And in a fifth scheme, a set of relative power requirement thresholds are maintained.

Method and apparatus for determining a transmission configuration for a dedicated channel in a wireless communication system. In one embodiment, an optimum configuration is determined based on minimizing Peak-to-Average Ratio (PAR) of the channel. The configuration is defined as a transmission pair of transmission branch and spreading code. The transmission branch may be the In-Phase (I) branch or the Quadrature (Q) branch. PAR analysis may be performed off-line to determine the optimum configuration. In operation, if the spreading code of the optimum configuration is used by another channel, the next best optimum code is used.

System (s) and method (s) are provided for transmitting data code Symbols and control code symbols spanning disparate transmission time intervals in the uplink. Data and control symbols that overlap in time-domain within a transmission time interval are- multiplexed and transmitted employing resources scheduled for data transmission (1030), whereas data and control code symbols that are not multiplexed are transmitted in respective allocated resources (1040). Multiplexing in conjunction with localized and distributed resource scheduling preserves the single-carrier characteristics of a single-carrier frequency division multiple access system.
