摘要:
The present invention is directed to methods in a wireless communication network for allocating resource elements of a transmission resource to a control channel. The invention also relates to different nodes of a wireless communication network. The transmission resource comprises a first number of resource blocks each comprising one or a plurality of subsets of resource elements. One method in a control node comprises the steps: obtaining a bitmap for configuration of the transmission resource, wherein the bitmap is adapted to identify at least one subset of resource elements within the transmission resource (S1); allocating the at least one identified subset of resource elements to the control channel (S2); and transmitting control data on the at least one subset of resource elements allocated to the control channel to a receiving node (S3).

A method in a network node for transmitting an enhanced Control CHannel, eCCH, to a user equipment in a telecommunications system. The eCCH comprises control information to the user equipment in at least one Control Channel Element, CCE. The at least one CCE maps to a number of resource elements comprised in at least one enhanced resource element group. The at least one enhanced resource element group is comprised in at least one resource block in a time-frequency Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing, OFDM, grid. The network node decides to use a CCE aggregation level that is smaller than the smallest CCE aggregation level of a physical downlink control channel, PDCCH, for a first eCCH. The network node then modulates the first eCCH by using a higher order modulation than Quadrature Phase Shift Keying, QPSK, modulation, when the smaller CCE aggregation level is used for the first eCCH. Then, the network node maps the modulated first eCCH to the at least one enhanced resource element group of resource elements in the at least one resource block, and transmits the mapped first eCCH to the user equipment. A network node, a method in user equipment and a user equipment are also provided.
摘要:
A method for operating a control node for a wireless communication system. The control node creates a data frame having at least one resource block. The data elements of the resource block are subdivided into at least a first subset and a second subset The first subset comprises first control data for controlling a receiving node The second subset comprises data elements of said resource block not used for control data for controlling said receiving node. The method further comprises checking whether second control data for a second receiving node are to be put into the second subset, scheduling payload data for the receiving node into the second subset if second control data are not to be put into the second subset of data elements, and transmitting the data frame to the receiving node.

According to an embodiment of the invention, a method of operating a control node for communication with at least one receiving node is provided. The communication is structured in frames comprising several subframes (1) which may be divided into subbands in the frequency domain. The method comprises transmitting a control channel in a search area (8) of one of the subframes (1). The search area (8) comprises a configurable time span and may span one or more of the subbands.

The present invention is directed to methods for adjusting a guard period in a cellular wireless communication system, to a base station adapted to adjust a guard period, and to a network management entity for adjusting a guard period. One method comprises the steps: obtaining (S1) an indication of at least one downlink frame for an interference measurement; transmitting (S2) during the at least one indicated downlink frame an interference signal; measuring (S3) interference at least during a part of the guard period succeeding the indicated downlink frame; and setting (S4) at least one of an end time of at least one subsequence.

The present invention generally relates to radio communication systems, relay nodes, controller nodes, user equipment (user terminals), software and methods for said systems and nodes. In one embodiment, a method for operating a control node for a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises the steps: creating a data frame comprising an early part and a later part, wherein the early part comprises first control data for controlling a receiving node; checking whether second control data are to be put into the later part; scheduling payload data for the receiving node into the later part if second control data are not to be put into the later part; and transmitting the date frame to the receiving node.
摘要:
A method implemented in an anchor base station configured performing a proxy operation at an anchor base station in which the anchor base station acts as a proxy between a second S-GW or an MME node and a self-backhauled base station. The method includes receiving a data packet destined for the user equipment and mapping the received data packet from an incoming General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) Tunneling Protocol (GTP) tunnel to an outgoing GTP tunnel. The method also includes receiving a control message and modifying elements of the control message while copying other elements in the control message and forwarding the control message between the self-backhauled base station and the second S-GW or MME node.

A radio base station, a relay node and a respective method therein are provided for communicating data to a user equipment, the relay node being associated with the base station, wherein a downlink transmission to the user equipment is scheduled on subframe(s) available for the base station. The method in the radio base station comprises detecting that at least a part of the available subframes are not needed for downlink transmission to the relay node; and un-reserving at least one of the not needed subframes. The method further comprises transmitting, to the relay node, a release notification message notifying the relay node of the unreserved subframes for enabling the relay node to use the unreserved subframes for downlink transmission.
摘要:
A radio access network comprises a donor base station node (29) and a relay base station node (20). The relay base station node (29) participates in communications across a first radio interface with a wireless terminal (30) and also participates in communications over a backhaul link across a second radio interface, the second radio interface reusing at least some functionality of the first interface. The donor base station node (28) configures a subframe configuration pattern. The subframe configuration pattern is arranged to specify which subframe(s) of a frame structure may be utilized for the backhaul link. As a result of subframe configuration, a HARQ process state in a HARQ process at one of the base station nodes is known by the other base station node by any of several operational modes.
