Abstract:
A wireless communication method includes receiving a reference signal and a data signal, based on a coverage enhancement level represented by a number of transmission repetitions; processing the reference signal and the data signal received by the receiving; setting a number of resource elements for transmitting the reference signal based at least on a channel type; and setting usage of resource elements indicated by a System Information Block (SIB). The reference signal is a Cell-specific Reference Signal (CRS) or a Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS).
Abstract:
Provided are a resource scheduling method, a resource determining method, an eNB, and a user equipment. The resource scheduling method for wireless communication is performed by the eNB. The wireless communication involves at least a first carrier and a second carrier. The resource scheduling method includes: transmitting a DCI in the first carrier to a UE to schedule downlink resources for a PDSCH of the second carrier, wherein the eNB is able to start transmitting a burst in the second carrier at a flexible time independent of the subframe boundaries of the second carrier after the second carrier is occupied by the eNB, and the DCI for a flexible PDSCH of the burst different from the normal PDSCH of the second carrier contains information on the time period scheduled for the flexible PDSCH. The flexible PDSCH and its corresponding RS can reuse the DwPTS subframe structure for minimal specification impact.

Provided are wireless communication methods and devices. In one embodiment, a wireless communication method performed by a wireless communication device comprises: transmitting a data packet repeatedly in multiple subframes including at least one normal subframe and at least one special subframe to another wireless communication device, wherein the available resources in the special subframe are different from that in the normal subframe, the data packet includes multiple modulated symbols which are divided into multiple modulated-symbol sets, in each subframe, each OFDM symbol is mapped by one of the modulated-symbol sets, and in every subframe, the modulated symbols in the same modulated-symbol set are mapped onto REs in one OFDM symbol in a fixed order. In another embodiment, multiple repetitions of the data packet are transmitted in each subframe, and in each special subframe, different repetitions are mapped onto REs with cyclic shift.
Abstract:
If repetition transmission is applied to a response signal for a downlink data signal and an uplink signal, the uplink signal is repeatedly transmitted using a certain number of consecutive subframes starting with a first subframe, at which the repetition transmission of the uplink signal starts, and the response signal is repeatedly transmitted using at least the certain number of consecutive subframes starting with a second subframe, at which the repetition transmission of the response signal starts. The first subframe is set to be the same as the second subframe.

Abstract:
Repetitions of a control signal across a plurality of first subframes and a data signal allocated to a resource indicated by the control signal are received. Repetition of a response signal for the data signal across a plurality of second subframes is performed, and a transmission signal is generated by multiplying the response signals in the second subframes by, among a plurality of first sequences orthogonal to one another, components of one of the first sequences which is associated with the first subframes, respectively.

Abstract:
Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) is measured accurately even in a case where a discovery signal is transmitted. A receiver receives a plurality of subframes, at least one of which includes a discovery signal, and a measurer measures Reference Signal Reception Power (RSRP) using a first resource in which the discovery signal is mapped, measures RSSI using a second resource different from the first resource for which the discovery signal is mapped, and calculates Reference Signal Reception Quality (RSRQ) using RSRP and RSSI.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes reception circuitry and demodulation circuitry. The reception circuitry, in operation, controls receiving one or more repetitions of control information in a search space region. The search space region includes a first plurality of sub-regions of different lengths for a largest repetition number of the control information. The search space region includes a second plurality of sub-regions of different lengths for a second-largest repetition number of the control information. An interval of subframes to which the first plurality of sub-regions are mapped is greater than an interval of subframes to which the second plurality of sub-regions are mapped. The demodulation circuitry, in operation, controls performing a demodulation process of the one or more repetitions of the control information.
