Abstract:
A User Equipment (UE) receives a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) at subframe k and decodes at the subframe k a set of PDCCH candidates including L control channel elements (CCEs). The L CCEs are contiguously located from a position given by using a variable of Yk and a modulo (N/L) operation, where N represents a total number of CCEs in the subframe k, Yk is defined by Yk=(A*Yk−1)mod D, and A and D are predetermined constant values. When k=0, Y−1 is determined based on a UE identifier having 16-bits.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) receives downlink data using resource blocks in a wireless mobile communication system. The UE includes data processing circuitry coupled to a receiver that receives downlink control information including resource allocation information for the downlink data from a base station and to receive the downlink data mapped to physical resource blocks (PRBs) based on the downlink control information. The resource allocation information indicates virtual resource block (VRB) allocations for the user equipment. Each resource block corresponds to one time slot. A resource block pair includes a first resource block associated with a first time slot and a second resource block associated with a second time slot adjacent to the first time slot. The first and second resource blocks are allocated to the same frequency indices. A mapping relationship between VRB pairs and PRB pairs exists such that frequency consecutive VRB pairs are mapped to non-frequency consecutive PRB pairs and that each resource block pair is split so there is a frequency gap between the first and second parts of the resource block pair. The resource allocation information indicates the frequency gap size is one of a first value and a second different value.
Abstract:
A user equipment receives configuration information from a base station in a wireless communication system. Radio signals carrying configuration control information are received by a user equipment (UE) that includes an ACK/NACK feedback mode indicator. The UE also receives downlink subframes. The ACK/NACK feedback mode indicator is processed to determine if the ACK/NACK feedback mode indicator indicates the user equipment should (a) send an ACK/NACK signal in a one-to-one mapping between a downlink subframe and a corresponding uplink ACK/NACK signal or (b) send an ACK/NACK signal in an N-to-one mapping between N downlink subframes, where N is an integer greater than one, and a corresponding single uplink ACK/NACK signal. One or more ACK/NACK signals is transmitted in accordance with the determination of the processor.
Abstract:
In a wireless mobile communication system, user equipment receives downlink data and downlink control information including resource allocation information for the downlink data from a base station. Downlink data is mapped to physical resource blocks (PRBs) based on the downlink control information. The resource allocation information indicates virtual resource block (VRB) allocations for the user equipment. Indexes of PRBs to which the downlink data are mapped are determined based on mapping relationship between VRBs and the PRBs. The mapping relationship is defined such that indexes of the VRBs are mapped to indexes of the PRBs for a first part and a second part of a subframe. The received downlink control information includes control information that determines whether the indexes of the PRBs for the second part are separated with respect to the indexes of the PRBs for the first part based on a predetermined gap in a distributed mode where distributed VRBs are used or whether the indexes of the PRBs for the second part are not separated with respect to the indexes of the PRBs for the first part in a non-distributed mode where localized VRBs are used.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting downlink data using resource blocks at a base station in a wireless mobile communication system includes transmitting downlink data mapped to physical resource blocks (PRBs) to a user equipment, wherein indexes of virtual resource blocks (VRBs) are mapped to indexes of the PRBs for a first slot and a second slot of a subframe, and the indexes of the PRBs for the second slot are shifted with respect to the indexes of the PRBs for the first slot based on a predetermined gap, and wherein a predetermined offset is applied to an index of a PRB when the index of the PRB is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for performing HARQ performed by a user equipment (UE) are provided. A bundling indicator is received which indicates the number of bundled downlink subframes, and a determination is made whether at least one bundled downlink subframe is missed by comparing the bundling indicator with the number of detected bundled downlink subframes. A representative ACK/NACK signal is generated when no bundled downlink subframe is missed, and the representative ACK/NACK signal is transmitted on an uplink channel. Recovery capability is maximized and packet loss is reduced so that fewer ACK/NACK signals are fed back than downlink packets.
