    摘要: The present invention is related to methods, apparatuses, systems and computer software for determining an amount of physical resources for downlink transmission, and allocating uplink physical resources for transmission of data-non-associated control signaling based at least on the amount of physical resources for downlink transmission. The amount of physical resources for downlink transmission comprises an amount of downlink control signaling. The present invention further relates to a framework for mapping the dedicated uplink control channels directly to single physical resource blocks. The framework is able to efficiently shift physical resources to and from the uplink control channel for ACK/NACK reports, in a data-non-associated control signaling scheme and on a per subframe basis. The present invention is also concerned with scheduler, for example an eNodeB scheduler, which uses its scheduling history and knowledge of user equipment capabilities to increase utilization of uplink resources.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method, apparatus and computer program product for allocating resource units to a plurality of users in a multiplex transmission system. A transmission quality of available resource units to be allocated is determined for each user, and the resource unit with the highest transmission quality is allocated to the respective strongest user for which the highest transmission quality has been determined. An allocation range of the strongest user is expanded by allocating adjacent resource units to the strongest user as long as the determined transmission quality of the adjacent resource units is still the highest. Resource units with highest transmission quality among the remaining resource units are allocated to the respective remaining users and their allocation ranges are expanded as long as transmission quality of the adjacent resource units is still the highest among the remaining resource units.

    摘要: An allocation of M network allocations (e.g., physical resource blocks) among N users is by a signaling word having a maximum number of bits given by ceil(M*log 2(N+1)). The signaling word is sent to users, who determine the resources allocated to them from the signaling word. In an embodiment, the signaling word is a series of binary index numbers, each index number assigned to one user, and the network allocations are stored in a known order in a list. The position of the index number in the signaling word, in view of the list, gives the network allocation to that user index number. For example, a user assigned the index number at the kth position in the signaling word is allocated the network allocation at a corresponding kth position of the stored list. This uses fewer signaling bits than the known prior art disclosed herein.
