摘要:
A method in a wireless communication terminal includes receiving a radio resource allocation having a plurality of sub-carriers that are a subset of available sub-carriers. The available sub-carriers include a DC sub-carrier wherein the DC sub-carrier and all but one edge-most sub-carrier of the plurality of sub-carriers are designated for transmission if the DC sub-carrier is between any two sub-carriers of the allocation, and all of the sub-carriers except the DC sub-carrier are designated for transmission if the DC sub-carrier is not between any two sub-carriers of the allocation.

A wireless communication device including a controller communicably coupled to a transceiver. In one embodiment, the controller generates a QPSK sequence having multiple elements wherein each element includes real and imaginary parts. In another embodiment, the sequence is selected from a groups of sequences stored on a user terminal. Thereafter, the controller generates a reference signal based on the information representative of the selected QPSK sequence.

Receiving units will switch between performing a DC bias suppression and not removing the DC distortion at the receiver depending on the amount of DC interference level observed/measured/estimated. Since the overall DC interference is from all uplink transmitters, potentially at different power levels, the amount of DC distortion can be measured based on the difference between the received power level and the expected power level on the DC sub-carrier. Additionally it can be estimated based on the number of active transmitters, their allocation bandwidth, power control target and/or a rough estimate of the DC distortion introduced by each active transmitter and also the distortion introduced by the receiver. Once this distortion level is estimated, a decision is then made whether or not to remove the DC distortion.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for performing resource allocation with lower required overhead is provided herein. Resource allocations for data transmissions are chosen in such a way as to provide channel quality information for various parts of the channel bandwidth (frequency selective channel quality information), such as allocating two different resource blocks (on different sets of subcarriers) to a mobile unit for two different transmissions. These data transmissions are used to estimate frequency selective channel quality information, thereby eliminating or greatly reducing the need for channel sounding with a broadband pilot. As a result, the overhead on the uplink of the communication system may be significantly reduced.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for generating a single statically defined downlink reference MCS table consisting of transport block sizes (TBSs) computed for 29 MCSs for each of j PRBs where j=1, . . . , NRBDL. Three entries of the MCS table are reserved for implicit modulation order signaling (e.g. in the downlink) or implicit redundancy version signaling (e.g. in the uplink). Each MCS entry in the table is populated by a TBS and the table entries are accessed based on a 5-bit MCS index and resource allocation information, indicating the number of PRBs is signaled via a scheduling message which may be a grant or assignment message. A grant or assignment message may further include a 5-bit MCS field for each transport block which, along with the resource allocation information, enables the UE to determine the scheduled TBS.

A method and apparatus is provided for transmitting an orthogonal frequency domain multiple access (OFDMA) signal including a synchronization channel signal transmitted within a localized portion of a bandwidth of the OFDMA signal, the synchronization channel signal having predetermined time domain symmetry within the localized portion of the bandwidth and including information for providing at least partial cell identification information. The synchronization channel signal enables an initial acquisition and cell search method with low computational load which provides OFDMA symbol timing detection and frequency error detection and frame boundary detection and cell specific information detection in an OFDMA system supporting multiple system bandwidths, both synchronized and un-synchronized systems, a large cell index and an OFDMA symbol structure with both short and long cyclic prefix length.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for pilot signal transmission is disclosed herein. In particular, a pilot transmission scheme is utilized where pilot sub-carrier bandwidth differs from data sub-carrier bandwidth. Because some user's data sub-carriers will no longer have the user's pilot sub-carriers adjacent to them, the set, or pattern of sub-carriers used by the pilot blocks changes at least once in a burst. Changing the pilot block pattern (the set of occupied pilot block sub-carriers) at least once in the burst serves to increase the frequency proximity of occupied data sub-carriers to occupied pilot sub-carriers in the burst.

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.
