Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving downlink control information in a mobile communication system supporting an uplink packet data service are provided. To transmit packet data in an HARQ mobile communication system, a second transceiver receives an RG as rate control information from a first transceiver. The second transceiver sets the allowed maximum data rate of an HARQ process to which the RG is applied to the allowed maximum data rate of an HARQ process previous to the HARQ process, if the RG indicates hold. The second transceiver transmits packet data within the set allowed maximum data rate to the first transceiver.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method are provided for transmitting data and control information in a wireless communication system. The method include determining if the control information is to be transmitted via a data channel; and if the control information is to be transmitted in the data channel, determining a number of symbols for coded control information in consideration of the data, generating the coded control information based on the number of symbols for the coded control information, generating coded data based on an MCS for the data, multiplexing the coded data and the coded control information, modulating the multiplexed coded control information and coded data by a modulation scheme, performing FT on the modulated coded control information and coded data, performing IFT on the FTed coded control information and coded data based on sub-carrier mapping, and transmitting the IFTed coded control information and coded data via the data channel.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are described for a User Equipment (UE) to transmit in a control channel ACKnowledgement signals associated with a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest process (HARQ-ACK signals) in response to receiving Transport Blocks (TBs) transmitted from a base station. The UE conveys the HARQ-ACK information by selecting one resource from multiple resources in the control channel and by selecting a constellation point of the modulation scheme for the HARQ-ACK signal. Transmission diversity is supported using different control channel resources that are already available to the UE without configuring additional resources. Design principles are described to optimally map the HARQ-ACK information to control channel resources and modulation constellation points for a Time Division Duplex (TDD) system and for a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) system.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for a User Equipment (UE) configured to have multiple cells in a DownLink (DL) of a Time Division Duplex (TDD) communication system so as to determine a power of an acknowledgement signal that the UE transmits in a control channel and to determine a number of acknowledgement information bits that the UE multiplexes with data information bits in a data channel. A transmission power of the control signal is determined based on DL Assignment Index (DAI) Information Elements (IEs) in DL Scheduling Assignments (SAs) that the UE detects through multiple transmission time intervals and through the multiple configured DL cells. The number of acknowledgement information bits in the data channel is determined based on a DAI IE of an UpLink (UL) SA associated with the transmission of the data channel.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus method are provided for transmitting uplink information in a Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) wireless communication system. The method includes determining whether Acknowledgement/Negative Acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information indicating whether or not downlink data has been received exists to be transmitted, if uplink data exists to be transmitted; multiplexing the uplink data and control information for the uplink data and transmitting multiplexed data including the uplink data and the control information, through a frequency resource allocated for the uplink data, if no ACK/NACK information exists; and multiplexing the uplink data, the control information for the uplink data, and the ACK/NACK information, and transmitting multiplexed data through the frequency resource allocated for the uplink data, if the ACK/NACK information exists. The ACK/NACK information is located adjacent to a pilot for the uplink data.
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.
