摘要:
Systems and methods of signaling uplink control information in a mobile communication network using carrier aggregation are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a method may include scheduling downlink transmissions to a first user terminal on a single downlink component carrier (CC) associated with a primary cell and scheduling downlink transmissions to a second user terminal on multiple downlink CCs or on a downlink CC associated with a non-primary cell. Further, the method may include receiving, on a first set of radio resources, control information associated with the downlink transmissions to the first user terminal. In addition, the method may include receiving, on a second set of radio resources, control information associated with the downlink transmissions to the second user terminal.

Physical downlink channels PPHY1, PHY2 are summed in a summation unit 10. The output of summation unit 10 is forwarded to another summation unit 12, where it is combined with the primary and secondary synchronization channels P-SCH, S-SCH. The secondary synchronization channel S-SCH is formed as in WCDMA. The primary synchronization channel P-SCH is formed by connecting a switch SW either to a code generator 14 generating the conventional code PSCWCDMA or a code generator 18 generating the code PSCNEW. The selection is controlled by a PSC controller 18. This controller can be adapted to produce a P-SCH in accordance with one of several formats. PSCNEW has the properties that it is a hierarchical Golay sequence constructed by a plurality of constituent sequences with at least one of the constituent sequences being the Golay sequence, and that it is orthogonal to the primary and secondary synchronization codes used in non-MBSFN capable WCDMA.

The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in a RBS and a UE for reference signal (RS) measurements in an OFDM system, that enable having a configurable RS transmission bandwidth which is smaller than the system bandwidth. This allows for better interference coordination of RS, which in turn improves the UE RS measurements used for different services such as positioning. The RBS retrieves (710) the RS transmission bandwidth, determines (720) a RS measurement bandwidth based on this RS transmission bandwidth, and transmits (730) the determined bandwidth to the UE. The UE receives (810) the RS measurement bandwidth and measures (820) the RS in a bandwidth determined based on the received measurement bandwidth and the UE capability.

Power headroom reporting and report handling are discussed in the context of a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), on which a user equipment (UE) has no valid uplink grant, and a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) on which a UE has no transmission. Under these circumstances, it is not possible to directly calculate one or more parameters which are used to calculate power headroom. Accordingly, exemplary embodiments provide for predetermined, known values to be used by the UE to calculate the power headroom, and by the eNodeB to understand the meaning of a received power headroom report.
摘要:
A method of operating a wireless communication terminal includes receiving one or more downlink control messages that each contain scheduling information scheduling the wireless termina! to receive a downlink transmission on either a primary carrier or a secondary carrier. The method also includes determining, for each of the downlink control messages, whether that message includes scheduling information for the primary carrier or for a secondary carrier. Additionally, the method includes selecting a format for an uplink control message based on whether any of the downlink control messages includes scheduling information for a secondary carrier, generating an uplink control message based on the selected, format, and transmitting the uplink control message to the base station.
