Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for changing a mode of a device by a server. The server receives, from a master device, at least one of a user preference document including information related to whether mode synchronization is activated between devices, a device context profile (DCP) document including a rule applied per mode, and a DCP directory document including information related to a profile activated in the DCP document. The at least one of the user preference document, the DCP document, and the DCP directory document is registered. When information related to changing a mode of the master device is received, the at least one of the user preference document, the DCP document, and the DCP directory document is changed based on the changed mode of the master device. The at least one of the changed user preference document, the changed DCP document, and the changed DCP directory document is transmitted to at least one slave device.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for controlling retransmission by a User Equipment (UE) in a communication system. A negative acknowledgement (NACK) is received, from a Node B, for at least one transport block among a plurality of transport blocks transmitted by the UE. A precoding matrix and a number of layers for retransmission are determined. The at least one transport block is retransmitted using the determined precoding matrix and the determined number of layers. The precoding matrix is predefined and the number of layers is equal to a number of layers corresponding to the at least one transport block, if the UE does not receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) intended for the UE and a number of the at least one transport block is not equal to a number of the plurality of transport blocks.
