Abstract:
A data sending method provided in embodiments of the present invention includes: receiving, by a MAC entity of a sending device, a MAC SDU sent by a PDCP entity of the sending device by using a logical channel; multiplexing, by the MAC entity of the sending device, the MAC SDU to generate a first MAC data packet; segmenting or concatenating, by the MAC entity of the sending device, the first MAC data packet to generate a second MAC data packet; adding, by the MAC entity of the sending device, a MAC header to the second MAC data packet to generate a MAC PDU; and sending, by the MAC entity of the sending device, the MAC PDU to a MAC entity of a receiving device by using a physical entity of the sending device and a physical entity of the receiving device.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a control information sending method, a control information detection method, a base station, and user equipment. The control information sending method includes: determining, by a base station, target control information and characteristic information corresponding to the target control information, where the target control information is information for scheduling target user equipment by the base station; determining, according to a preset rule and the characteristic information from a resource block set corresponding to a target coverage level, a target resource block subset corresponding to the target control information, and selecting, from the target resource block subset, an available resource block as a target resource block; and sending the target control information using the target resource block.
Abstract:
A pilot signal transmission method, a channel estimation method, and an apparatus are provided, and the method for a pilot signal transmission includes: transmitting a pilot signal 1 CPICH1 over a first antenna, and transmitting a pilot signal 2 CPICH2 over a second antenna; transmitting a pilot signal CPICHk1 over a k1th antenna; and when it is determined that a terminal of a first category in the MIMO system is scheduled, transmitting a pilot signal CPICHk2 over the k1th antenna. Interference caused by a pilot signal to a traditional terminal is better reduced, performance of the traditional terminal is ensured while the terminal of the first category properly works in the MIMO system, and power consumption for transmitting a pilot signal is effectively reduced.
