| 20090196190 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CHANNEL QUALITY INDICATOR REPORT - A method for a UE reporting a CQI comprising steps of: obtaining a total number M of CQI report sub-bands in a system and a number N of CQI report sub-bands needed to be reported; measuring channel qualities of all sub-bands and according to the measurement result, determining N CQI report sub-bands needed to be reported and corresponding CQI values; sending a L-bit long sequence to a base station for indicating the sub-bands that need to be reported; sending CQI values corresponding to the sub-bands need to be reported to the base station. The present invention uses comparatively shorter bit sequence to indicate CQI report sub-bands needed to be reported and reduces the number of information bits necessary for CQI report sub-bands and also reduces the number of information bits corresponding to the CQI values in the CQI report sub-bands. | 08-06-2009 |

The method also includes adjusting, when a mode transition occurs, a size of a monitoring window for a transitioned operation mode; reporting a radio channel condition acquired by monitoring and averaging the channel condition within the monitoring window; and repeating adjustment of the monitoring window size and report of the radio channel condition while moving the monitoring window as time progress. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20110235682 | Method and apparatus for determining reference signals in mobile communication system - Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for determining reference signals. A User Equipment (UE) obtains group hopping information and/or sequence hopping information of a UE-specific reference signal from cell-specific system information broadcasted by an eNB. The UE receives UE-specific control information transmitted by the eNB to the UE. The UE generates a UE-specific reference signal of a first slot according to the group hopping information and/or sequence hopping information of the broadcasted cell-specific reference signal. If the UE-specific control information indicates that group hopping and/or sequence hopping of UE-specific reference signals is disabled, the UE generates a UE-specific reference signal of a second slot in a same frame with the first slot according to the UE-specific reference signal of the first slot. The UE is able to determine the reference signals when multiple UEs share physical resource blocks. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20110268059 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FEEDING BACK DATA RECEIVING STATUS - An apparatus and a method for feeding back data receiving status, applied to a system, are provided. The method includes sequencing, by a User Equipment (UE), downlink subframes for transmitting data with respect to each Component Carrier (CC), generating receiving status feedback information for the first X downlink subframes with respect to each CC according to the result of the sequencing, where X≦M, wherein M is the number of downlink subframes on each CC, and transmitting the receiving status feedback information generated with respect to each CC to a base station. Accordingly, the UE will not misinterpret the receiving status for the downlink subframes due to inconsistencies with the base station between transmitting and receiving feedback. This affects the Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) transmission, saves the uplink overheads occupied by the receiving status feedback information, and increases the uplink coverage area. | 11-03-2011 |
