Abstract:
A method for performing code block segmentation for wireless transmission using concatenated forward error correction encoding includes receiving a transport block of data for transmission having a transport block size, along with one or more parameters that define a target code rate. A number N of inner code blocks needed to transmit the transport block is determined. A number M—outer code blocks may be calculated based on the number of inner code blocks and on encoding parameters for the outer code blocks. The transport block may then be segmented and encoded according to the calculated encoding parameters.
Abstract:
User equipment (UE)-initiated accesses within a cellular network are optimized to account for cell size and to reduce signaling overhead. A fixed set of preamble parameter configurations for use across a complete range of cell sizes within the cellular network is established and stored within each UE. A UE located in a given cell receives a configuration number transmitted from a nodeB serving the cell, the configuration number being indicative of a size of the cell. The UE selects a preamble parameter configuration from the fixed set of preamble parameter configurations in response to the received configuration number and then transmits a preamble from the UE to the nodeB using the preamble parameter configuration indicated by the configuration number.

Abstract:
A method of operating a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes configuring a user equipment (UE) for carrier aggregation with N serving cells, where N is a positive integer. The UE is scheduled to receive downlink data from M of the N serving cells at a first time, where M is a positive integer less than or equal to N. The UE provides uplink control information (UCI) for only the M serving cells.
Abstract:
Transmitting a acknowledge/not acknowledge (ACK/NACK) response in a wireless cellular network by mapping the data value into a cyclic shifted version of a reference signal. A subframe is formed with a plurality of symbols with certain symbols designated as reference signal (RS) symbols. The receiver and transmitter both know when an ACK/NACK response is expected. If an ACK/NACK response is not expected, then an RS is inserted in the duration of symbols designated as RS symbols. If an ACK/NACK response is expected, then the ACK/NACK response is embedded in one or more of the symbols designated as RS symbols. The subframe is transmitted to a receiver, and the receiver can determine the ACK/NACK value in the RS symbol, if present, and also use the RS symbol for coherent demodulation of a CQI (channel quality indicator) or data.

Abstract:
A transmission of information from a secondary to a primary node occurs in a plurality of transmission instances which are logical time durations. A secondary node receives an allocation of periodic transmission instances for a scheduling request indicator (SRI) and an allocation if periodic transmission instances for a sounding reference signal (SRS). In a particular transmission instance allocated for the transmission of both SRS and SRI, the secondary node transmits the SRI without transmitting the SRS if the SRI indicates a pending scheduling request; otherwise, the secondary node transmits the SRS without transmitting the SRI.

Abstract:
A method for communicating over a wireless backhaul channel comprising generating a radio frame comprising a plurality of time slots, wherein each time slot comprises a plurality of symbols in time and a plurality of sub-carriers in a system bandwidth, broadcasting a broadcast channel signal comprising a transmission schedule to a plurality of remote units in a number of consecutive sub-carriers centered about a direct current (DC) sub-carrier in at least one of the time slots in the radio frame regardless of the system bandwidth, and transmitting a downlink (DL) control channel signal and a DL data channel signal to a first of the remote units, wherein the DL data channel signal is transmitted by employing a single carrier block transmission scheme comprising a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) spreading for frequency diversity.
