摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided to enable aperiodic sounding reference signaling including frequency hopping through the use of additional RRC configuration. The methods can require little or no additional L1 overhead to support narrowband frequency hopping for aperiodic sounding transmissions. In some embodiments, an approach is provided for extending an LTE periodic sounding reference signal methodology to include aperiodic sounding. One benefit of the proposed technique is that it enables each UE to perform aperiodic channel sounding in sounding subframes, using a frequency-hopping pattern, in which the sounding bandwidth of the UE can be narrowed appropriately to match its link capability. Additional benefits of the new approach include better resource utilization, lower signaling overhead, faster channel information update rates, and lower blocking probabilities.

A system and method for implementing call handover (HO) is disclosed. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to communicate with a wireless communication network. The UE is configured to transmit a measurement report to at least one of a serving cell and at least one cell of a coordinated multi-point (CoMP) cell set. The UE is configured to listen for an HO command from a serving cell. The HO command identifies a target cell. The UE is configured to detect a radio link failure between the UE and the serving cell, listen for an HO command from a first cell in the CoMP cell set for a first time duration, and, when an HO command is received from the first cell in the CoMP cell set within the first time duration, perform handover to the target cell identified in the HO command.

The UE is configured to transmit a measurement report to at least one of a serving cell and at least one cell of a coordinated multi-point (CoMP) cell set. The UE is also configured to listen for control channel transmissions from at least one of the serving cell and a first cell in the CoMP cell set, receive a resource allocation from at least one of the serving cell and the first cell in the CoMP cell set, and receive an HO command jointly from the serving cell and the first cell in the CoMP cell set. The HO command identifies a target cell. The UE is also configured to perform handover to the target cell identified in the HO command.

A relay node in a wireless telecommunications system is provided. The relay node includes a processor configured to send a negative-acknowledgement message (NACK) to a user agent (UA) when the UA transmits a data packet to the relay node in the same subframe in which the relay node is transmitting to an access node.

A user agent comprising a processor enabled to configure the user agent to adjust a discontinuous reception (DRX) start offset when a downlink assignment is one of configured and reconfigured. The DRX start offset is adjusted to satisfy the equation 10 * SFNstart time + subframestart time modulo Long DRX Cycle = DRX start offset .
摘要:
A method for preventing a relay node from missing a transmission from an access node. The method includes, when a ten millisecond periodicity is used for Multicast/Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) subframes, setting a time between an uplink grant from the access node to the relay node and an acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement message (ACK/NACK) from the access node to the relay node equal to ten milliseconds. The method further includes, when a forty millisecond periodicity is used for MBSFN subframes, the access node sending the relay node an asynchronous grant for an uplink retransmission when a data packet is missed, and when the relay node receives the grant for the uplink retransmission, the relay node retransmitting the missed data packet.

A relay node in a wireless telecommunications system is provided. The relay node includes a processor configured to aggregate a plurality of acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement messages (ACK/NACKs) when an access node sends multiple transmissions of data to the relay node before the next opportunity for the relay node to transmit corresponding ACK/NACKs for the data transmissions to the access node, the processor further configured to send the aggregated ACK/NACKs to the access node in a single subframe.

A method for receiving repetitions of acknowledgement or negative acknowledgement from a user equipment, the method comprising responsive to transmission of a message to the user equipment receiving a first ACK/NACK response in a first subframe utilizing a first ACK/NACK resource, and receiving a plurality of additional ACK/NACK responses, each of the plurality of additional ACK/NACK responses being received in a respective subframe utilizing a second ACK/NACK resource, the method being characterized in that the second ACK/NACK resource is different from the first ACK/NACK resource.
摘要:
A system is provided for transmitting a low code rate spatially multiplexed channel on multiple antennas. The system includes a transmitter and a processor. The processor is configured such that the processor encodes a block of information bits to form channel coded bits, wherein the ratio of the number of channel coded bits to the number of information bits is greater than one; and the processor maps the channel coded bits to modulation symbols, and each channel coded bit is mapped once to a modulation symbol. The transmitter is configured to transmit a first portion of the modulation symbols using a spreading sequence on a first antenna of the multiple antennas and to transmit a second portion of the modulation symbols using the spreading sequence on a second antenna of the multiple antennas.
