摘要： In a mobile telecommunication system (10), a number of user equipments (40–45) may receive multimedia broadcast multicast services. The method for power allocation and user assignment for MBMS services determines any number (K) of user equipments which may be served without complete cell area coverage (78). For more than K user equipments (40–45) requesting MBMS services, dedicated channels are assigned (84). For user equipments requesting MBMS service during a broadcast, such user equipment is assigned to the channel (broadcast or dedicated) with the lower power requirement, if power is available. If the user is assigned to the broadcast channel, and power is available, power of the broadcast channel is adjusted (108). Otherwise, the power of the broadcast channel is increased and no further power is indicated as being available (112).

摘要： A communication system is provided that dynamically allocates power to a Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (an MBMS service). In response to determining to establish a Point-to-Multipoint (PTM) communication channel to multiple user equipment (UEs), the communication service assigns the PTM communication channel to the MBMS service, determines a power requirement associated with each user equipment (UE) of the multiple UEs based on a handover quality measurement associated with the UE to produce multiple power requirements, and allocates a power level to the PTM communication channel based on the multiple power requirements. The communication system further dynamically adjusts the allocated power based on a handover quality measurement associated with a UE of the multiple UEs that is received during provision of the MBMS service.

摘要： A communication is provided that schedules both Distributed Virtual Resource Blocks (DVRB) and Localized Virtual Resource Blocks (LVRB) in a same frequency channel, thereby obtaining the benefits of frequency selective scheduling while minimizing the uplink feedback overhead. In one embodiment of the invention, the communication system assigns one or more downlink Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) of multiple downlink Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) to each user equipment (UE) given an LVRB to produce at least one reserved PRB and multiple non-reserved PRBs and assigns a part of each PRB of the multiple non-reserved PRBs to a UE given a DVRB. In another embodiment of the invention, the communication system assigns PRBs pre-reserved for localized transmission to UEs scheduled for LVRBs and assigns parts of multiple PRBs pre-reserved for distributed transmission to each UE given a DVRB.

摘要： Various embodiments are described which can serve to mitigate interference between the control channel signaling of adjacent sectors/cells. Potentially, these techniques may have the benefit of reducing the system resource drain caused by control channels, particularly control channels in high frequency-reuse, OFDMA systems. A transmitting device (101) transmits primary control channel information to a plurality of user devices (102). The primary control channel information includes an indication that a first OFDMA resource region (e.g., 320 or 330) is assigned to at least one user device of the plurality of user devices. The transmitting device correspondingly transmits secondary control channel information to the at least one user device using the first OFDMA resource region.

摘要： A base station (101) of a cellular communication system (100) comprises a receiver (105) and a channel quality processor (111) which receive channel quality indications from a communication unit (103). The base station (101) further comprises a transmitter (107) for transmitting signals to the communication unit (103). A first power control processor (115) controls the transmit power in response to a first power control mode of operation and a second power control processor (117) controls the transmit power in response to the second power control mode of operation. A rate processor (113) determines a rate of change indication for the channel quality indications and a selector (119) selects between the first power control mode and the second power control mode in response to the rate of change indication. The power control mode of operation may be modified to suit the current channel variations of the communication channel. The invention may be applicable to an HSDPA service in a UMTS cellular communication system.

摘要： A cellular communication system (100) comprises a first base station (103) which schedules resource for a user equipment (101). When receiving a resource allocation message, the user equipment (101) transmits a first message comprising a transmit indication to a plurality of base stations (103-109) wherein the transmit indication is indicative of a subsequent transmission of a second message. The user equipment (101) then proceeds to determine a transmit format for the second message; and to transmit the second message to the plurality of base stations (103-109) using the transmit format. When receiving the transmit indication, the plurality of base stations (103-109) proceed to configure their receivers to receive the second message. The first message may be transmitted in a control channel and the second message may be transmitted in a user data channel. The invention is particularly applicable to a High Speed Uplink Packet Access HSUPA service in a UMTS cellular communication system and may facilitate soft handover.

摘要： A user equipment (UE) operating in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing communication system transmits Layer 1 and Layer 2 user data non-associated and user data associated control signaling on an uplink by puncturing user data information with the user data non-associated and user data associated control signaling to produce a data stream wherein the control signaling and user data information are multiplexed. The UE then conveys the punctured data stream to a radio access network via an air interface. The communication system further provides for a selection of a coding and modulation for the control signaling based on a modulation and coding scheme of the user data and a transmission scheme that is applied for transmission of the user data information over the air-interface.
