Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting and receiving references signals. A method includes transmitting a first parameter and a second parameter, which are cell specific parameters; transmitting a third parameter, which is a UE specific parameter; transmitting a CSI; and receiving at least one of a first reference signal, which is generated based on the CSI, for a PUSCH and a second reference signal for a PUCCH. The first reference signal is generated by not applying sequence hopping and group sequence hopping, regardless of values of the first parameter and the second parameter, if the third parameter indicates that the sequence hopping and the group sequence hopping are disabled. The second reference signal is generated by applying the group sequence hopping, if the first parameter indicates that the group sequence hopping is enabled and the third parameter indicates that the sequence hopping and the group sequence hopping are disabled.

Methods and apparatuses are provided for wireless communication. First offset information and second offset information are received. A scheduling assignment for transmitting uplink data is received. The uplink data is transmitted with at least one of acknowledgement/non-acknowledgment (ACK/NAK) information and channel quality information (CQI) on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). A number of symbols for the ACK/NACK information is determined based on the first offset information. A number of symbols for the CQI information is determined based on the second offset information.

Methods and apparatuses are provided for sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission. A plurality of parameter sets for aperiodic SRS transmission are received. First downlink control information, including an SRS request field with a first value indicating one of the plurality of parameter sets, is received. Second downlink control information, including an SRS request field with a second value indicating one of the plurality of parameter sets, is received. An aperiodic SRS is transmitted using the indicated parameter set if the first value is identical to the second value.

An apparatus and method are provided for transmitting a PUSCH and a DM RS associated with transmission of the PUSCH. The method includes receiving, by a UE, a DCI format including IEs over PDCCHs based on a UE ID, where the IEs include RA and RSC information indicating a combination of a CS and an OCC for the DM RS; identifying the CS and the OCC for the DM RS using the RSC information; acquiring a DM RS sequence based on the identified CS, the identified OCC, and a CAZAC-based sequence; mapping the DM RS sequence to sub-carriers, based on the RA; performing an IFT operation based on the DM RS sequence and the sub-carriers; generating a signal for transmitting on the PUSCH by adding a CP to a result of the IFT operation; and transmitting the signal on the PUSCH.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for a User Equipment (UE) configured to have multiple cells in a DownLink (DL) of a Time Division Duplex (TDD) communication system so as to determine a power of an acknowledgement signal that the UE transmits in a control channel and to determine a number of acknowledgement information bits that the UE multiplexes with data information bits in a data channel. A transmission power of the control signal is determined based on DL Assignment Index (DAI) Information Elements (IEs) in DL Scheduling Assignments (SAs) that the UE detects through multiple transmission time intervals and through the multiple configured DL cells. The number of acknowledgement information bits in the data channel is determined based on a DAI IE of an UpLink (UL) SA associated with the transmission of the data channel.

Methods and apparatus for a User Equipment (UE) to determine a number of coded modulation symbols per spatial layer for an Uplink Control Information (UCI) type it multiplexes in a Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH) is provided. The UE communicates with different sets of Reception Points (RPs) in different Transmission Time Intervals (TTIs) wherein two RPs in a same set of RPs have a communication latency that is smaller than or equal to a predetermined value and two RPs in two different respective sets of RPs have a communication latency that is larger than a predetermined value.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for transmitting Channel State Information (CSI) having a reporting mode and being transmitted from a User Equipment (UE) over a PUSCH transmission in an Uplink (UL) cell associated with a Downlink (DL) cell in response to the UE receiving a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format that includes a CSI request field indicating CSI transmission corresponding to one of CSI process sets associated with measurements of respective reference signals are provided. The method includes obtaining, from the CSI request field, an indication of a CSI process set for a CSI transmission; and transmitting the CSI for the CSI process set indicated by the CSI request field, wherein the CSI request field includes 2 bits of a first CSI process set having a first set of interpretations.

Methods and apparatuses for transmitting and receiving signaling, by a User Equipment (UE) with reduced processing capabilities, to conserve power are provided. A method for transmitting from a network a Physical Downlink Shared CHannel (PDSCH) to a first User Equipment (UE) from a first class of UEs or to a second UE from a second class of UEs, includes transmitting a PDSCH to the first UE using a first bandwidth unit; and transmitting a PDSCH to the second UE using a second bandwidth unit, wherein the second bandwidth unit is smaller than the first bandwidth unit.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method are provided for transmitting control information and data in a DFT based communication system. The method includes placing a reference signal onto a first symbol among a plurality of symbols in one slot; placing a HARQ-ACK onto a second symbol first placed after the first symbol in the one slot; placing the data onto other symbols except for the first symbol; and transmitting a signal including the reference signal, the HARQ-ACK and the data. A part of CQI information is further placed onto at least one symbol, except for the first symbol, in case that the CQI information is present for transmission in the one slot.
