Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed for allocating time-frequency resources in a system that uses multiple multicarrier modulation numerologies. According to one aspect, a method in a first wireless node comprises allocating (1310) time-frequency resources for use by a second wireless node, where said allocating comprises selecting, for use in multicarrier modulation in the allocated time-frequency resources, one of two or more subcarrier bandwidths that the second wireless node is adapted to use for modulating or demodulating of data. In some embodiments, the method further comprises sending (1320) resource allocation information to the second wireless node, the resource allocation information identifying the allocated time-frequency resources.
Abstract:
Methods and devices for introducing enhanced signals into a wireless environment. The enhanced signals provide for functionality that is not specified in a communication standard corresponding to a standard of a legacy terminal. The enhanced signals can be utilized by a non- legacy terminal. The legacy terminal is incapable of processing the enhanced signals and is unable to detect the presence of the enhanced signals.
Abstract:
A first transceiver that supports hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (hybrid ARQ) functionality is operated. Initially, it is operated to transmit data blocks having a nominal maximum data block size. M o . In response to detecting that a second transceiver does not have sufficient soft buffer memory space to store data blocks associated with an anticipated number of active hybrid ARQ processes, the transceiver is operated to transmit data blocks having a reduced data block size, M' . The anticipated number of active hybrid ARQ processes can be, for example, higher than a nominal number of active hybrid ARQ processes.

Abstract:
Method and apparatus for conveying feedback reports from a data receiving party (300) for data received from a data sending party (302) in a wireless connection. A plurality of feedback resources (304) assigned to different feedback information codes are allocated to the data receiving party for transmitting feedback reports. After checking whether the data was received correctly or not, the data receiving party selects a feedback resource (FR2) with a feedback information code that corresponds to one or more feedback reports on the received data. The data receiving party then sends feedback information on the selected feedback resource to the data sending party, thereby conveying the corresponding feedback information code. In this way, multiple feedback reports can be conveyed in a single feedback resource to the data sending party while still retaining single carrier properties.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus in a communication unit (400) employing a wireless TDD or half duplex FDD transmission arrangement when communicating with a data sending party, for scheduling feedback reports for data blocks in received RX sub-frames, in TX sub-frames available for transmission. An obtaining unit (402) in the communication unit receives allocation parameters (P) for the connection where the number of required feedback reports is greater than the number of allowed feedback reports. A scheduling unit (404) in the communication unit then schedules feedback reports (FR) in available TX sub-frames according to a predetermined spreading rule also known by the data sending party, dictating that the feedback reports are spread out or distributed evenly over the available TX sub-frames. In this way, the number of feedback reports in a TX sub-frame can be reduced.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for signaling scheduling information in a spatial multiplexing wireless communications system (700), as well as corresponding methods and apparatus for processing such signaling information, are disclosed. An exemplary method for signaling scheduling information comprises scheduling (310, 420) first and second transport blocks (110) for simultaneous transmission during a first transmission interval on first and second data substreams, respectively, and further comprises assigning (320, 430) a single re-transmission process identifier for the first transmission interval and transmιttιng(330, 440) first scheduling information for the first transmission interval. The first scheduling information comprises the re-transmission process identifier and first disambiguation data. The method further comprises scheduling (360, 470) at least one of the first and second transport blocks (110) for re-transmission during a second transmission interval and transmitting (370, 495) second scheduling information for the second transmission interval, the second scheduling information comprising the re-transmission process identifier and second disambiguation data. The first and second disambiguation data indicate whether the re-transmission of the retransmitted transport block (110) is scheduled for the first or second data substream and may be used by a receiver to determine the same
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods and a transmitter and a receiver for a mobile communication system. The basic idea of the present invention is to recursively derive from previous HARQ feedback the number of HARQ transmissions that is required to be able to decode the transmitted data successfully and to only transmit explicit HARQ feedback information if the decoding result differs from the derived result.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in cellular mobile communication systems for transmitting of multiple feedback information elements when using multiple HARQ-processes. Multiple feedback messages, e.g. positive or negative acknowledgements, are transmitted at a single time instant without any resorting for defining multiple structures for the feedback signaling and in such a way that the linkage between a certain feedback message and a certain hybrid ARQ process (and/or MIMO stream) remains unambiguous.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a base station and a method in a mobile telecommunication network for allocating and de-allocating uplink base station processing resources to a mobile terminal. The base station are adapted to communicate to a mobile terminal on an uplink channel supporting macro-diversity, and the base station is adapted to be a non-serving base-station without control of the resource allocation to the mobile-terminal. The base station comprises means for predicting a likelihood of successful decoding of a future transmission, and means for allocating or de-allocating processing resources based on said prediction.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for efficient use of network resources, in particular for continuous connectivity services. The present invention introduces a set of established rules for uplink and/or downlink activity detection such that a Node B and/or a UE is enabled to detect active and inactive transmission periods on links for reception of packet data transmission and can independently arrange for inactivity/activity state transitions without any need of further signalling. Such a set of rules can be communicated to the Node B and the user equipment, e.g., from the radio network controller (RNC) , or can consist of a predefined set of fixed rules that is readily implemented in said units.
