摘要:
A system and method to instruct a User Equipment (UE) how Uplink Control Information (UCI) on a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) should be transmitted with carrier aggregation. A semi-static signaling of a UCI mapping bit (via a Radio Resource Control (RRC) parameter) is used by a base station such as an eNodeB to require the UE to transmit UCI using one of two pre-determined UCI transmission modes. The bit can be decided by the base station, considering, for example, the available bandwidth or quality of different Uplink Component Carriers (UL CCs) associated with the UE. This network-based solution allows the network to either configure a general rule of UCI transmission by the UE or to enforce the UCI transmission on the Uplink Primary cell (UL Pcell). Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used to construe the claims.

摘要:
Example embodiments presented herein are directed towards an eNodeB, and method therein, for generating downlink communications in a multiple antenna system. The method comprises transmitting, to a number of user equipments, a plurality of reference signals, where each signal is beamformed in a distinct direction within at least one correlated domain (e.g., elevation and/or azimuth). The eNodeB receives at least one CSI report from a specific user equipment and determines a primary reference signal based on, for example, the at least one CSI report. The eNodeB may thereafter generate downlink communication signals for antenna element(s) and/or subelements of the multiple antenna system. The downlink communication signals are beamformed into a transmitting direction that aligns most closely with a beamforming direction of the at least one primary reference signal, as compared to any other beamforming direction of the reference signals.

The invention relates to methods and arrangements in a transmitting node for enabling a receiving node to perform measurements on interference caused by transmissions from at least one transmission point controlled by the transmitting node on receptions at the receiving node. The transmitting and receiving nodes are comprised in a wireless communications system. The transmitting node determines an interference measurement resource, IMR, for the receiving node. The receiving node is expected to measure interference on the IMR. The transmitting node then transmits at least one interfering signal on the IMR. The at least one interfering signal is not expected to be decoded or coherently measured upon by any node served by the transmitting node.

It is presented a user equipment comprising: a processor; and an instruction memory. The instruction memory stores instructions that, when executed, causes the user equipment to: receive at least one command from a network node; obtain at least a first measurement of channel state information and a second measurement of channel state information as a response to the at least one command; determine whether an interference corresponding to the second measurement of channel state information occurs during a data reception phase; and decode received signals, when an interference corresponding to the second measurement of channel state information occurs, based on the second measurement of channel state information.
摘要:
In a heterogeneous cell deployment a mobile terminal may need to receive control data transmissions from a macro node at the same time as a pico node is transmitting user data for the mobile terminal, using the same frequency or set of frequencies. This can result in a problematic interference situation. According to several embodiments of the present invention, at least one of two general approaches is used to mitigate the interference situation described above. In a first approach, the pico node's transmission power is reduced in some time intervals, thereby reducing the interference to a level where reception from the macro node is possible. In a second approach, which may be combined with the first approach in some cases, the data transmitted from the macro node is provided by the pico node, either alone or in combination with the macro node.

摘要:
Frequency-selective phase shifts are applied to signals transmitted from multiple transmission points involved in a coordinated (joint) transmission to a given UE. An eNodeB or other network node controlling the joint transmission artificially induces frequency selectivity between signals received by the UE in joint transmission from different transmission points, so as to ensure an even balance between constructive and destructive combination over frequency. By applying frequency-selective phase shifts (e.g., pseudo-random phase shifts) to the different transmission points that perform joint transmission, the signals from the different transmission points are forced to combine at the UE in a non-coherent manner. As a result, uncertainty in how the signals combine is drastically reduced, since it can be expected that the signals will always combine incoherently. The reduced uncertainty translates to reduced back-off offset in the link adaptation, and thus in an increased throughput.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for enabling accurate link quality estimation of a wireless link between a sending node and a receiving node. When the sending node receives link state reports from the receiving node, it estimates the current state of the wireless link. The sending node also determines a measurement adjusting parameter if the link state reports are deemed inaccurate in relation to the estimated link state, based on a deviation between the received link state reports and the estimated actual link state. The sending node then sends the determined measurement adjusting parameter to the receiving node, and the receiving node provides a link state report based on signal measurements adjusted by the measurement adjusting parameter. The adjusted link state report can then be used for link adaptation of the wireless link and/or for packet scheduling decisions.
摘要:
A method for wirelessly transmitting data using a plurality of transmission layers includes estimating a number of data vector symbols to be allocated to one or more user data codewords during the subframe and determining a number of bits in the one or more user data codewords. The method also includes calculating a nominal number of control vector symbols to allocate to control information based, at least in part, on the estimated number of data vector symbols and the determined number of bits in the one or more user data codewords. Additionally, the method includes determining an offset value based, at least in part, on a number of layers over which the wireless terminal will be transmitting during the subframe and calculating a final number of control vector symbols by multiplying the nominal number of control vector symbols and the offset value. The method also includes mapping one or more control codewords to the final number of control vector symbols and transmitting vector symbols carrying the one or more user data codewords and the one or more control codewords over the plurality of transmission layers during the subframe.
