摘要:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide for the application of extension carriers and carrier segments in the context of heterogeneous networks. As described herein, different parts of the spectrum may be interpreted differently by different type of nodes.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for facilitating an aperiodic transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) are disclosed. Transmission resources are allocated to the aperiodic SRS transmission. A portion of a first downlink control message is modified to produce a second downlink control message, where the first downlink control message does not trigger an aperiodic SRS transmission. The second downlink message is transmitted.
摘要:
Downlink PDCCH is communicated in a manner that mitigates a UE from decoding the PDCCH on multiple aggregation levels. Ambiguous payload sizes are identified and modified through zero padding with one or more bits based on the payload size. Aggregation level scrambling sequences can be generated such that a receiving UE can accurately identify the aggregation level on which to decode the PDCCH. Indicator bits that signal the aggregation level to a UE can also be included in the PDCCH.
摘要:
A wireless communication system implementing Carrier Aggregation (CA) allows activation and deactivation of certain component carriers. Transmit power on an uplink component carrier being reactivated may be controlled by predetermining appropriate power control parameters to be used upon reactivation. The predetermined power control parameters may depend on a last known power control state of the deactivated component carrier or may be reset to apply an initial low power state.

Methods, systems, and devices are described to support multiple timing advance groups for multi-carrier user equipment. Some embodiments provide for utilizing timing advance group synchronization information across multiple timing advance groups. Some embodiments provide support for performing random access procedures in relation to timing advance groups that may not include a primary component carrier. Some embodiments utilize timing advance group indexes to enable cross-carrier random access procedure management. Other embodiments support parallel random access procedures across multiple timing advance groups. Some embodiments provide for a reference downlink component carrier for timing within a timing advance group.
摘要:
A method transmits long term evolution (LTE) measurement reports on an uplink. The method manages invalid reference subframes in a multicarrier configuration. The managing can be implemented by transmitting measurement reports for component carriers with valid reference subframes; and omitting measurement reports for at least one component carrier with an invalid reference subframe.

Aspects disclosed herein relate to channel and interference estimations in a coordinated multi-point (CoMP) environment. In the disclosed aspects, an eNB may be equipped to signal an identifier indicating a plurality of resource patterns, each associated with a resource pattern group, and each including a first resource element pattern for channel estimation and a second resource element pattern for interference estimation. The UE may be equipped to receive the signaling and perform channel estimation based at least in part on the first resource clement pattern, and interference estimation based at least in part on the second resource pattern generate at least one channel state report based on the channel and interference estimations, and transmit at least one channel state report to an eNB. The eNB may determine one or more resources for use by the UE based on the at least one received channel state report.
摘要:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided for separating control transmissions and data transmissions within the coverage area of a plurality of transmission/reception points or points that are geographically displaced, the plurality of points comprising a macro node and a plurality of remote radio heads (RRHs) coupled to the macro node. Separating control transmissions and data transmissions in the macro node/RRH configuration may allow UEs to be associated with one set of transmission points for data transmissions and the same set or a different set of transmission points for common control signaling. Separating control transmissions and data transmissions may also allow for faster reconfiguration of antenna ports used for UE data transmission compared with reconfiguration via a handover process.
摘要:
A method for transmitting an acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement is described. Cell-specific symbol-level cyclic shift hopping is applied to data single-carrier frequency division multiplexing symbols of the acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement. A discrete Fourier transform is applied to the data single-carrier frequency division multiplexing symbols. Cell-specific symbol-level phase hopping is applied to the data single-carrier frequency division multiplexing symbols. The data single-carrier frequency division multiplexing symbols are transmitted in a slot.
摘要:
In accordance with aspects of the disclosure, a method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for wireless communication. The method, apparatus, and computer program product may be configured to provide at least one control channel for downlink grant information, provide at least one other control channel for uplink grant information, and adjust time apportioned for the downlink and uplink grant information in the control channels.
