Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for uplink packet scheduling, comprising the following steps: a base station determines types of terminals, and groups the terminals based on types thereof; the base station transmits pre-scheduling indication information and uplink scheduling commands to the terminals in a group with a same type; the base station receives Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmitted by the terminals on a corresponding uplink sub-frame. The present invention further provides a base station and a terminal. In the above solution provided by this invention, eNB sorts accessed MTC terminals into different types of groups based on types thereof via a high-layer signaling, part of the MTC terminals in a type group are sorted into a scheduling group via a pre-scheduling instruction carried by PDSCH, all the MTC terminals in that group are scheduled via an uplink scheduling command. The solution provided by this invention can obviously reduce the number of times that the base station transmits uplink scheduling commands, and alleviate the burden on the base station of scheduling PUSCH transmission of MTC terminals.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a sounding reference signal transmission method which is efficient in an uplink wireless telecommunications system using a multiple antenna technique and sounding reference signal hopping. A terminal is equipped with a plurality of antennas, and a base station receives the sounding reference signal transmitted from these antennas and estimates the uplink channel state of each antenna. The sounding reference signal performs frequency hopping so that the base station determines the channel condition for the entire bandwidth to which data is transmitted in the uplink system. In this environment, the sounding reference signal is transmitted through an antenna pattern through the entire data transmission bandwidth of the uplink system for each antenna of the terminal without additional overhead.

A method and an apparatus for sending Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback information are provided. The User Equipment (UE) receives a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) and a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) sent by a base station, determines a number of downlink subframes corresponding to the HARQ-ACK feedback information sent in the PUSCH of each CC in the current uplink subframe, the Uplink (UL) Downlink Assignment Index (UL DAI) obtained from the UL Grant of the PDCCH, a sum of the number of PDSCH subframes received from a HARQ-ACK bundling window and a number of PDCCHs indicating the downlink SPS releasing, and a size of the HARQ-ACK bundling window, and sends HARQ-ACK feedback information of each CC via the PUSCH in the current uplink subframe. A number of bits of the HARQ-ACK feedback information of each CC is determined according to the number of the downlink subframes.

By adopting the technical solution provided by embodiments of the present invention, in a system which supports to dynamically adjust the TDD UL-DL configurations, a UE may be enabled to explicitly learn number of OFDM symbols used for the PDSCH transmission within subframe 6. Meanwhile, the UE and an evolved Node B (eNB) may be enabled not to confuse the number of OFDM symbols used for the PDSCH transmission.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for transmitting an ACK/NACK in a TDD system. A component carrier (CC) configuration for a user equipment (UE) and a transmission mode of each CC are received. An ACK/NACK feedback mode is selected based on an overhead status for feedback in an uplink. An ACK/NACK is processed according to the selected feedback mode. And the ACK/NACK is transmitted in the uplink. The method provided by the present invention can avoid excessive overhead for feedback in uplink in various extreme circumstances while ensuring satisfying performances of downlinks under many configurations.
