Abstract:
A method for performing a data session via a Wi-Fi access of a user equipment (UE) in a cellular network is provided. The method includes maintaining a look-up table including at least an entry, the entry including a Wi-Fi identifier of a Wi-Fi access point (AP) and location information of the Wi-Fi AP, determining whether a user preference for a Wi-Fi connection is set to ON or OFF, checking whether at least one matched entry of the look-up table is found based on current location information of the UE, scanning to discover the Wi-Fi AP, connecting to a Wi-Fi AP corresponding to the matched entry based on a result of the determining, and performing a data session via a Wi-Fi access to the connected Wi-Fi AP.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for determining acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) resources at a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Control information is received on a downlink control channel for data transmission and the control information is decoded. It is determined whether a scheduling type of a data channel for the data transmission is persistent or non-persistent based on the decoded downlink control information. A resource for transmission of an ACK/NACK is determined based on the determined scheduling type of the data channel.
Abstract:
A method apparatus and system for efficiently transmitting and receiving channels are provided in a wireless communication system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). A multiplexing scheme differs according to a channel when a transmitter transmits a packet data channel, a common control channel and a control channel designated for a particular user. Uncoded 1-bit information is broadly dispersed in frequency and time domains using multiplexing technology for maximizing diversity gain in a channel for transmitting information of at least one bit to a particular user like an acknowledgement (ACK) channel. The transmitter converts a sequence obtained by multiplexing multiple bits to be transmitted to a plurality of users to parallel signals, and broadly disperses the parallel signals in the time and frequency domains. When the uncoded 1-bit information is transmitted, reception reliability is improved because channel coding and transmission are efficiently performed using a small amount of resources.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). A method of decoding a reception signal having an interference signal included therein by User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving the reception signal having the interference signal included therein, identifying at least one of transmission parameters for the interference signal, identifying a modulation scheme of the interference signal and reception strength of the interference signal using the identified transmission parameter, removing the interference signal from the reception signal based on the identified modulation scheme and the identified reception strength of the interference signal, and decoding the reception signal from which the interference signal is removed.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for communication between a user equipment (UE) and a node B in a communication system. The UE generates a media access control protocol data unit (MAC PDU) including at least one field related to an amount of data, if the data becomes available for transmission. The MAC-PDU including the at least one field related to the amount of data is transmitted to the node B. Grant information is received from the node B. The data is transmitted to the Node B based on the grant information. Each of the at least one field related to the amount of data corresponds to a respective identifier.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for using a plurality of cells by an evolved NodeB (eNB) in a communication system are provided. A first eNB, which manages a first cell and is providing a communication service to a User Equipment (UE) located in the first cell, determines to provide the communication service to the UE together with a second cell of a second eNB, which neighbors the UE. A cell addition request message, making a request for aggregation of the first cell and the second cell, is transmitted to the second eNB to provide the communication service. When a cell addition response message, accepting the request for aggregation of the first cell and the second cell, is received from the second eNB, a cell activation request message, making a request for activation of the second cell, is transmitted to the second eNB.
Abstract:
A method and a device for measuring interference in a communication system are provided. The method includes measuring interference in a base station of a communication system, in which one or more antenna groups are arranged at different positions in a single cell, includes the steps of determining a reception antenna group which is one of the one or more antenna groups that transmits a signal other than an interference signal to a terminal, determining a reference signal in order to measure the strength of the signal transmitted by the reception antenna group, a step of determining a wireless resource so as to measure the interference in each of the one or more antenna groups, and notifying the terminal with the strength of the signal transmitted by the reception antenna group and information for measuring the interference in each of the one or more antenna groups.

An apparatus and a method for transmitting/receiving downlink data channel signal transmission information in a cellular radio communication system using a Cooperative Multi-Point (COMP) scheme are provided. In the downlink data channel signal transmission information transmission method, a Base Station (BS) transmits downlink data channel signal transmission information including information related to Resource Elements (REs) scheduled for a downlink data channel signal transmission to a User Equipment (UE), and transmits downlink data channel signal non-transmission information including information related to REs through which a downlink data channel signal is not transmitted among the REs scheduled for the downlink data channel signal transmission to the UE.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting data in a subframe including two slots in a communication system. Resource allocation information is received at a UE. The UE determines a resource for data transmission based on the resource allocation information, whether hopping is enabled, whether mirroring is enabled, and whether hopping is intra-subframe and inter-subframe hopping or inter-subframe hopping. Data is transmitted via the determined resource from the UE to a Node B.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for wireless communication. Control symbols are mapped to a plurality of resource element groups (REGs) which is not assigned to a physical channel format indication channel (PCFICH) or a physical hybrid automatic repeat request indicator channel (PHICH). The REGs are allocated based on a time first manner. The mapped control symbols are transmitted on a packet dedicated control channel (PDCCH). A number of the REGs in a physical resource block (PRB) on an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol depends on an index of the OFDM symbol and a number of configured reference signals.
