摘要:
A method and apparatus allocate acknowledgement channels in a communication network. A linking scheme is established between indices of physical hybrid automatic repeat-request indicator channels (PHICHs), and a combination of indices of control channel elements (CCEs) or indices of physical resource blocks (PRBs) and indices of demodulation reference signals (DMRSs). A scheduling grant is transmitted to a user equipment (UE) by using a plurality of CCEs. In response to receiving a data packet and a DMRS from the UE, an index of a PHICH within the plurality of PHICHs is determined based on at least one index of the CCEs used to transmit the scheduling grant or at least one index of the PRBs used to transmit the data packet, and an index of the DMRS in accordance with the linking scheme established. The BS transmits an acknowledgement signal to the UE using the PHICH indicated by the determined index.

Prior to a change in a configuration, such as a change to the carrier frequency, bandwidth, base station type, and so forth of the base station, the base station can inform a subscriber station to prepare for the reconfiguration by sending a message to the subscriber station. The message informs the subscriber station regarding the change in configuration and a timing regarding the change. The base station can command the subscriber station to handover to the serving base station with the new configuration or the subscriber station can choose to handover to the serving base station with the new configuration. The subscriber station can perform network reentry to the serving base station with the new configuration at the time of or after the new configuration is effective. A communication context between the stations can be maintained and the network reentry can be optimized by omitting one or more operation procedures.

A base station comprises a transmitter configured to transmit a downlink frame. The downlink frame comprising a first configuration message associated with the configuration of Enhanced-Multicast Broadcast Service (E-MBS). The first configuration message comprises a field with an indicator to indicate a next configuration message to be decoded by a subscriber station. The subscriber station, upon decoding the first configuration message, refrains from decoding subsequent configuration messages that precede the next configuration message to be decoded by the subscriber station in accordance with the indicator.

The present invention concerns methods for efficiently supporting Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) on the Forward Packet Data Channel (F-PDCH) in CDMA 2000 1xEV-DV systems. Active speech in VoIP is encoded using, for example enhanced variable rate codec (EVRC), which produces 171, 80 and 16 bits per 20 ms of speech for Rate 1, Rate ½ and Rate ⅛, respectively. However, about 60% of the time a user is inactive during a speech session, so an inordinate amount of system bandwidth is comprised of rate ⅛ VoIP packets. In one embodiment of the present invention the apparatus of the present invention identifies the Rate ⅛ voice frame packets and discards them. In another embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus of the present invention identifies the Rate ⅛ voice frame packets and selects some of them for further transmission. In both embodiments the efficiency of channel utilization is increased since the amount of channel band width used to communicate relatively little information, e.g., gaps of silence, is decreased.

An approach is provided for channel interleaving. A plurality of symbols are received and partitioned into a plurality of subblocks. The subblocks form a plurality of subsequences. A first output sequence is generated from the subsequences. The subsequences of the first output sequence is selected and punctured to generate a second output sequence, and interleaving the second output sequence.

Methods and apparatuses for estimating and reducing interference in wireless communication systems are disclosed. As one example, a method for reducing interference in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes the steps of generating a tile for transmission, the tile including a first portion and a second portion, inserting small message information into the first portion or the second portion, if the small message information is inserted into the first portion, inserting data into the second portion, and if the small message information is inserted into the second portion, inserting the data into the first portion.
摘要:
A method of providing channel state information feedback in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes measuring original channel state information for each of a plurality of channels. An offset vector is applied to the original channel state information to generate modified channel state information. A subset of the channels is identified based on the modified channel state information. The original channel state information or the modified channel state information is reported.

摘要:
Various embodiments are disclosed relating to techniques to transmit data rate control signals for multicarrier wireless systems. According to an example embodiment, a wireless apparatus may be adapted to transmit at least a first data rate control (DRC) value via an in-phase channel and at least a second DRC value via a Quadrature-phase channel. The first DRC value may be associated with a first forward link carrier and the second DRC value may be associated with a second forward link carrier. In this manner, DRC values may be transmitted over both the I and Q channels, for example.
