Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting a signal using a sequence in a wireless communication system. A first sequence used to transmit a first signal in a first channel is determined by performing group-hopping using a pseudo-random pattern over a first group of sequences. A second sequence used to transmit a second signal in a second channel is determined by performing the group-hopping using the pseudo-random pattern over a second group of sequences.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus are provided 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 a plurality of CSI processes associated with measurements of respective reference signals. 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.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting and receiving references signals. A method includes receiving a first cell specific parameter; receiving a second UE specific parameter; receiving a CSI; acquiring a first reference signal for a PUSCH, based on the second parameter and the CSI; acquiring a second reference signal for a PUCCH, based on the first parameter; and transmitting at least one of the first reference signal and the second reference signal. Group sequence hopping is not applied to acquire the first reference signal, if the first parameter indicates that the group sequence hopping is enabled and the second parameter indicates that the group sequence hopping is disabled. The group sequence hopping is applied to acquire the second reference signal, if the first parameter indicates that the group sequence hopping is enabled and the second parameter indicates that the group sequence hopping is disabled.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmission of at least two HARQ-ACK bits. Information for at least two configured cells and information for a transmission mode for each of the at least two configured cells are received. At least one transport block is received on the at least two configured cells. The at least two HARQ-ACK bits are generated based on a number of the at least two configured cells and the transmission mode for each of the at least two configured cells. Transmission power for the at least two HARQ-ACK bits is adjusted based on a number of the received at least one transport block. The at least two HARQ-ACK bits are transmitted on a PUCCH. A transmission mode supports one transport block or up to two transport blocks.
Abstract:
An apparatus is provided for receiving a signal in a wireless communication system. The apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a signal including a reference signal, data information and acknowledgement information. The apparatus also includes a controller configured to control de-mapping the acknowledgement information that is mapped in first symbols in a slot of a subframe, the reference signal not being mapped to the first symbols and the first symbols being directly adjacent to a middle symbol in the slot, and de-mapping the data information that is mapped to remaining symbols in the slot.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are described for transmitting and receiving HARQ-ACK information in a Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH). A method of receiving includes configuring a plurality of cells for a user equipment (UE), where each of the plurality of cells is associated with one transmission mode; receiving, from the UE, via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), encoded concatenated HARQ-ACK bits for the plurality of cells; and decoding encoded concatenated HARQ-ACK bits. HARQ-ACK bits for the plurality of cells are concatenated based on an order of a cell index for each of the plurality of cells, and the concatenated HARQ-ACK bits include 2 HARQ-ACK bits for a cell associated with a transmission mode supporting up to 2 transport blocks and 1 HARQ-ACK bit for a cell associated with a transmission mode supporting up to 1 transport block
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for receiving a Scheduling Assignment (SA) by a User Equipment (UE) in a communication system in which a base station transmits the SA including at least one Information Element (IE). The method includes receiving the SA; identifying if a first IE included in the received SA is set with a first predetermined value and at least one bit in a second IE included in the received SA is set with a second predetermined value; and performing an action corresponding to a semi-persistent scheduling, if the first IE included in the received SA is set with the first predetermined value and the at least one bit in the second IE included in the received SA is set with the second predetermined value
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are described for a User Equipment (UE) to determine a set of resources available for transmitting an acknowledgement signal in an UpLink (UL) Component Carrier (CC) in response to reception of multiple DownLink (DL) Scheduling Assignments (SAs) transmitted from a base station with each DL SA being associated with a respective DL CC. The UL CC and a first DL CC establish a communication link when the UE is configured for communication over a single UL CC and a single DL CC.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are described for a base station to transmit and for a User Equipment (UE) to detect a Physical Downlink Control CHannel (PDCCH) conveying a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format scheduling data reception or data transmission by the UE. The base station transmits a PDCCH and the UE decodes candidate PDCCHs using a number of Control Channel Elements (CCEs) from a first set of CCEs for a first DCI format and using a number of CCEs from a second set of CCEs for a second DCI format depending on a maximum code rate for the DCI format transmission or on a scheduling bandwidth.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for a User Equipment (UE) configured with multiple cells in a DownLink (DL) of a Time Division Duplex (TDD) communication system to determine the coding method for acknowledgement information bits as a function of their number, to apply bundling to the acknowledgement information bits when their number exceeds a first predetermined value, and to partition the acknowledgement information bits, possibly together with other control information bits, into two separate codewords when their total number exceeds a second predetermined value.
