摘要:
The invention is a method and apparatus for signaling uplink control information in a mobile communication network using carrier aggregation. The signaling mechanism allows the transmission, on a single uplink component carrier, of control information associated with a downlink transmission on multiple aggregated downlink component carriers. Semi-statically reserved resources for the transmission of control information on the uplink component carrier may be dynamically shared by user terminals that are assigned multiple downlink component carriers for downlink transmissions. Implicit or explicit resource indication can be used in combination with dynamic resource indication.

Embodiments herein include a method in a user equipment (UE) for transmitting uplink control information in time slots of a subframe over a radio channel to a radio base station. The uplink control information is comprised in a block of bits.The UE maps the block of bits to a sequence of complex valued modulation symbols. The UE block spreads the sequence across Discrete Fourier Transform Spread-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFTS-OFDM) symbols. This is performed by applying a spreading sequence to the sequence of complex valued modulation symbols, to achieve a block spread sequence of complex valued modulation symbols. The UE further transforms the block-spread sequence, per DFTS-OFDM symbol. This is performed by applying a matrix that depends on a DFTS-OFDM symbol index and/or slot index to the block-spread sequence. The UE also transmits the block spread sequence, as transformed, over the radio channel to the radio base station.

Methods and apparatus for distributing available transmit power in a user equipment (UE) to avoid violation of UE power limitations on a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) and a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) are described. Available power for transmission on at least the PUCCH is determined and at least one power headroom report indicating available power for transmission on at least the PUCCH is transmitted to a base station.

Methods and arrangements for resource allocation in a telecommunication system in which aggregation of component carriers is applied. The size of the resource allocation field is determined based on the transmission bandwidth of a selection of component carriers. The selection of component carriers comprises the component carrier on which the resource allocation message is monitored and the component carriers which are cross-scheduled from said component carrier. The resource allocation message comprising the resource allocation field with the determined size is transmitted to the user equipment over a particular component carrier of the selection of component carriers. Furthermore, with only one size of the resource allocation field a smaller number of code word sizes needs to be monitored by the UE. This leads to a smaller number of blind decodings performed in the UE. The present invention enables a more tailored approach when determining the size of the resource allocation field to avoid too high overhead but also a too coarse resource allocation.

The disclosure relates to a user equipment for a wireless communications system, and to a related method for identifying a resource to use for a transmission of control information on a physical uplink control channel, PUCCH, format 3. The method comprises receiving (610) a resource index from a serving radio base station, and identifying (620) the resource to use for the transmission of the control information in a subframe based on the received resource index, wherein the identified resource is within a same confined set of physical resource blocks regardless of if a normal or a shortened PUCCH format 3 is used in the subframe.

Methods and arrangements in a network node and mobile terminal, respectively, in a wireless communication system supporting aggregation of component carriers. The method in a network node involves, when resources on at least two downlink component carriers are being assigned to a mobile terminal at the same time, allocating (908) control information bits not related to power control in a bit field, which is normally used for power control in a message on a physical downlink control channel associated with one of said at least two downlink component carriers. The method in a mobile terminal involves, using control information bits not related to power control obtained from a bit field, which is normally used for power control in a message on a physical downlink control channel associated with one of said at least two downlink component carriers, for locating information related to downlink or uplink transmissions.
摘要:
A method and an arrangement in a radio network node for reconfiguring mappings from Carrier Indicator Field-values to component carriers are provided. Each CIF-value is mapped to a respective component carrier comprising a respective shared data channel. Each respective shared data channel corresponds to at least one downlink control channel carrying said each CIF-value. The radio network node reconfigures mappings from CIF-values to component carriers, while at least one mapping of CIF-value to component carrier is maintained. The component carrier of said at least one mapping from CIF-value to component carrier comprises said at least one downlink control channel and a shared data channel corresponding to said at least one downlink control channel. The radio network node sends at least one of the reconfigured mappings from CIF-values to component carriers to the user equipment.
