摘要:
This application discusses, among other things, methods and apparatus for providing more efficient ways to enable D2D discovery and D2D communication simultaneously. In an example, a method can include assembling device-to device (D2D) discovery data at a wireless device, assembling D2D communication data at the wireless device, assembling a D2D preamble including the discovery data and the communication data, and transmitting the D2D preamble using a wireless transmitter of the wireless device.

An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for operating using a reduced data transmission bandwidth are generally described. The UE may receive downlink control information (DCI) that provides a resource allocation (RA) of a reduced physical resource block (PRBmin) of less than 1 PRB for communications in a PRB of a subframe. Whether the RA is localized or distributed may be predefined, configured via system information block or Radio Resource Control signaling, or indicated in the DCI format. The DCI format may specify the resources within the PRB allocated to the UE through a subcarrier block index and total number of subcarrier blocks or a bitmap corresponding to a unique block of subcarriers or block index. An order in a list of cell Radio Network Temporary Identifiers (RNTIs) may be used with a common RNTI to derive the reduced RA from a 1 PRB RA.

Technology to support mapping for Hybrid Automatic Retransmission re-Quest (HARQ) for Carrier Aggregation (CA) is disclosed. One method can include a user equipment (UE) identifying, within a radio frame, a type 2 DownLink (DL) sub-frame within a virtual bundling window associated with a Secondary Component Carrier (SCC). The type 2 DL sub-frame can be virtually moved from a Primary Component Carrier (PCC) for HARQ-ACKnowledge (HARQ-ACK) multiplexing of the virtual bundling window. The UE can extract a Component Carrier Element (CCE) number for a first CCE used by a Physical Downlink Control CHannel (PDCCH) transmission corresponding to the type 2 DL sub-frame. The UE can determine a Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH) resource for carrying a HARQ-ACK multiplexing message based on the CCE number when a PCC window size of the PCC is greater than an SCC window size of the SCC.

An eNodeB (eNB), Machine Type Communications (MTC) user equipment (UE) and method using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in a non-legacy PUCCH region are generally described. The UE may be in an enhanced coverage (EC) mode. The UE may receive higher layer signaling indicating physical resource blocks in the PUCCH region and offsets in a cell- or UE-specific manner on a per-slot basis or, when in EC mode, per-set of N subframes basis. The UE may receive a resource allocation for a PUCCH in a PUCCH region separate from a legacy PUCCH region and reserved for non-legacy UEs. The UE may transmit a frequency hopping PUCCH in the PUCCH region and use shortened PUCCH format to accommodate an extended retuning time by puncturing a first and/or last symbol of at least one slot. If retuning, the UE may drop a sounding reference signal transmission in the next subframe.
摘要:
An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for operating in enhanced coverage (EC) modes are generally described. The UE may receive one or more physical broadcast channel (PBCH) signals, dependent on whether the UE is in a normal coverage mode or in one of the EC modes. The PBCH signal may be combined to form a combined PBCH signal, when the UE is in an EC mode, and decoded to determine one of a plurality of sets of resource regions associated different EC modes for communication with the eNB. The signal may be scrambled using a Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) dependent on at least one of a signal type of the control signal and the EC mode. Paging and the system information block (SIB) signals in a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) may be decoded without decoding a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal associated with the PDSCH.

Technology to determine a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest-ACKnowledge (HARQ-ACK) codebook size for inter-band time division duplex (TDD) carrier aggregation (CA) is disclosed. In an example, a user equipment (UE) operable to determine a HARQ-ACK codebook size for inter-band TDD CA can include computer circuitry configured to: Determine a HARQ bundling window for inter-band TDD CA including a number of downlink (DL) subframes using HARQ-ACK feedback; divide the HARQ bundling window into a first part and a second part; and calculate the HARQ-ACK codebook size based on the first part and the second part. The first part can include DL subframes of configured serving cells that occur no later than the DL subframe where a downlink control information (DCI) transmission for uplink scheduling on a serving cell is conveyed, and the second part can include physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) subframes occurring after the DCI transmission of the serving cells.

Sub-band allocation techniques for reduced-bandwidth machine-type communication (MTC) devices are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment (UE) may comprise logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to identify a machine-type communication (MTC) sub-band allocation based on received MTC sub-band allocation information, the MTC sub-band allocation to comprise an allocation of a plurality of subcarriers to an MTC sub-band of a system bandwidth of a serving cell of the UE, the MTC sub-band allocation to define at least one MTC direct current (DC) subcarrier among the plurality of subcarriers, and a radio interface to receive a transmission via the MTC sub-band according to the MTC sub-band allocation. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
An eNodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method for operating in enhanced coverage (EC) modes are generally described. The UE may determine whether or not a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) signal and an uplink signal allocated to different resources in a particular subframe overlap. The uplink signal may comprise another PUCCH signal or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) signal. The PUCCH signals may comprise a scheduling request or acknowledgement response/retransmission request. The UE may select one of the overlapping signals and transmit the selected signal on a resource allocated to the other signal instead of on a resource allocated to the one of the overlapping signals. The other signal may or may not be transmitted dependent on whether it is a PUCCH or PUSCH signal.
