Abstract:
Technology for determining a common search space (CSS) from a physical resource block (PRB) indication for a stand-alone carrier type is disclosed. In an example, a user equipment (UE) configured for determining a common search space (CSS) from a physical resource block (PRB) indication for a stand-alone carrier type can include a processing module to: Determine a PRB set in the CSS from an enhanced physical hybrid automatic repeat request (ARQ) indicator channel (ePHICH) configuration information in a master information block (MIB); and decode an enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH) or the ePHICH from PRB region candidates in the PRB set.
Abstract:
Technology for periodic channel state information (CSI) reporting is disclosed. One method can include a user equipment (UE) identifying a configured CSI reporting instance for a secondary cell to report the periodic CSI to a node based on a CSI reporting configuration of the secondary cell. The UE can determine that the configured CSI reporting instance of the secondary cell used to report the periodic CSI does not correspond with an uplink (UL) subframe of a primary cell. The UE can transmit the periodic CSI report for the secondary cell, to the node, using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) on the secondary cell when the periodic CSI reporting instance for the secondary cell does not correspond with the UL subframe of the primary cell and an UL-SCH (Uplink Shared Channel) is available in a subframe that corresponds to the periodic CSI reporting instance of the secondary cell.
Abstract:
Disclosed in some examples is a method for providing a HARQ response in an LTE network for a PUCCH format 1b. The method includes receiving one or more downlink assignments of a bundling window over a wireless downlink control channel; setting a reception status for each sub-frame of a downlink data channel in the bundling window based on whether the sub-frame on the downlink data channel was associated with a particular one of the received downlink assignments and based upon whether the sub-frame was successfully received; setting a reception status of sub-frames of the downlink data channel in the bundling window that did not have a corresponding downlink assignment to a predetermined value; and transmitting a response, the response based upon the reception statuses set by the response module.
Abstract:
Technology to support mapping for Hybrid Automatic Retransmission re-Quest (HARQ) for Carrier Aggregation (CA) is disclosed. One method can include a user equipment (UE) identifying, within a radio frame, a type 2 DownLink (DL) sub-frame within a virtual bundling window associated with a Secondary Component Carrier (SCC). The type 2 DL sub-frame can be virtually moved from a Primary Component Carrier (PCC) for HARQ-ACKnowledge (HARQ-ACK) multiplexing of the virtual bundling window. The UE can extract a Component Carrier Element (CCE) number for a first CCE used by a Physical Downlink Control CHannel (PDCCH) transmission corresponding to the type 2 DL sub-frame. The UE can determine a Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) resource for carrying a HARQ-ACK multiplexing message based on the CCE number when a PCC window size of the PCC is greater than an SCC window size of the SCC.
Abstract:
A system and method utilizes a selected PRB configuration for a new carrier type for a 3GPP-type wireless network. A downlink signal is received that comprises a demodulation reference signal pattern in at least one predetermined subframe of the downlink signal. The subframe comprises a first predetermined number of the plurality of orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) symbols comprising synchronization signals for a legacy version of the downlink signal and the demodulation reference signal pattern comprising a second predetermined number of OFDM symbols that are different from the first predetermined number of the plurality of OFDM symbols. After receiving the downlink signal, the demodulation reference signal pattern in the downlink signal is demodulated.

Abstract:
Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), Evolved Node-B (eNB) and methods for communication in accordance with a packet convergence and link control (PCLC) layer are generally described herein. The UE may receive, from a Fifth Generation (5G) eNB, a first group of medium access control (MAC) protocol data units (PDUs) that include PCLC PDUs. In accordance with PCLC sequence numbers (SNs), the UE may reorder the PCLC PDUs and may decipher the PCLC PDUs. The UE may receive, from a legacy eNB, a second group of MAC PDUs that include packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) PDUs encapsulated in radio link control (RLC) PDUs. The UE may reorder the RLC PDUs based on RLC SNs and may decipher the RLC PDUs based on PDCP SNs that are exclusive to the RLC SNs.
Abstract:
Systems and methods provide solutions for PCell interruption for SCell activation and deactivation. A user equipment (UE) may select the delay of PCell interruption based on the transmission time interval (TTI) and the processing time (e.g., the hybrid automatic repeat request (HARD) processing time). A UE may be configured to process a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) comprising an activation command or a deactivation command in a first subframe for an SCell. In response to the activation or deactivation command, based on a TTI length corresponding to the PDSCH, the UE determines the delay for PCell interruption. The delay corresponds to a selected second subframe after the first subframe, wherein a first delay for a first TTI length is longer than a second delay for a second TTI length, and wherein the second TTI length is a shortened TTI (sTTI) compared to the first TTI length.
Abstract:
Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable for interrupted transmission indication is disclosed. The UE can be configured to decode, at the UE, control information carried by a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a first active bandwidth part (BWP). The UE can be configured to identify, at the UE, an interrupted transmission (INT) indicator from the control information in the first active BWP. The UE can be configured to determine, at the UE, a location of an INT indicator for a second active BWP from the INT indicator for the first active BWP.
