Abstract:
Methods (700, 900) and nodes (110, 120) for transmission of broadcast information, over at least one antenna port, in a subframe, which transmission is received by a receiver (110) in a wireless communication system (100). The broadcast information is transmitted over a set of antenna ports comprising at least one antenna port, in at least one subframe (300) comprising a set of time-frequency resources, wherein a cell-specific reference signal, CRS, is not transmitted in each subframe (300). The method (700) comprises defining (701) a set of antenna ports for the set of time-frequency resources. Also, the method (700) comprises transmitting (702) the broadcast information on the defined (701) set of antenna ports, thereby using said set of time-frequency resources exclusively, such that they are unused for any other antenna port.

To facilitate transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) on an uplink carrier of a telecommunication system, a shifted SRS is created, wherein a predefined frequency domain position of a SRS is shifted for creation of the shifted SRS, thereby creating an extended SRS region including at least one additional RB being separate from the predefined frequency domain position of the SRS.
Abstract:
A client device for wireless communication has a transceiver, and a processor. The transceiver receives frequency resource information to indicate a set of frequency resources for a PRACH preamble transmission. The frequency resource information indicates each frequency resource having: interlace information of B-IFDM allocation, resource element allocation information indicating a subset of resource elements within each block of the B-IFDM interlace, and resource element spacing information, such that a resource element within a block of the B-IFDM interlace is allocated for the transmission of one PRACH preamble according to a T-IFDM allocation. The resource element allocation is repeated in each block of the B-IFDM interlace. The processor is configured to select a frequency resource based on the received frequency resource information, and generate a PRACH preamble to be transmitted on the selected frequency resource. The transceiver transmits the generated PRACH preamble on the selected frequency resource.
