| 20090219870 | RESOURCE BLOCK CANDIDATE SELECTION TECHNIQUE EMPLOYING PACKET SCHEDULING IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS - A method of transmitting data packets over a plurality of dynamically allocated resource blocks in at least one or a combination of a time, code or frequency domain on a shared channel of a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of selecting a number of resource block candidates for potential transmission of data packets destined for a receiver and transmitting the data packet to the receiver using at least one allocated resource block from the selected resource block candidates. The invention also relates to a corresponding method of decoding data packets, a transmitter, receiver and communication system. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20100098006 | AVOIDANCE OF FEEDBACK COLLISION IN MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS - The invention relates to feedback transmission for data packets in a mobile communication system. In particular the invention provides a communication system wherein feedback information of a retransmission protocol for transmitted data packets is transmitted. Further, the invention relates to a method for determining radio resources for the transmission of feedback information of a retransmission protocol for transmitted data packets as well as to a base station and a mobile station performing the method. In order to prevent potential collisions of feedback information while omitting a destination identifier for identifying the receiver of the feedback, the feedback resources for sending the feedback are determined at least based on a current transmission counter for a packet. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100135229 | Communication of Scheduling Related Information in a Mobile Communication System - The invention relates to method for communicating scheduling related information from a mobile terminal to a base station in the radio access network of a mobile communication system. Further, the invention also relates to a mobile terminal and a base station utilizing this method and a communication system. To avoid the allocation of resources that a mobile terminal may not utilize in view of restriction of uplink rate control by a scheduler, the invention suggests informing the scheduler on the status of a rate enforcement functionality of the uplink rate control function within a mobile terminal, so as t allow an adequate scheduling of uplink resources. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20110047430 | IMPROVED HARQ PROCESS MANAGEMENT - The invention relates to a method for receiving data units when using one HARQ process of an HARQ protocol. The memory associated to the HARQ process is divided into several sub-areas, which are addressable by an identifier. Then, when data is received, same is stored in one of the sub-areas. By providing more than one sub-area for one HARQ process, it is possible to actually use one HARQ process for two (or more) different received data units, being from the same data flow or from a different data flow. The actual sub-area of the HARQ process for storing data units can be either freely selected at the receiving end or is indicated by an identifier associated with the data. Furthermore, persistent scheduled data is transmitted in units, scheduled at fixed time intervals. Thus, a control signaling field, usually used for indicating new units, can be used to store the identifier. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110103335 | CONTROL CHANNEL SIGNALLING FOR TRIGGERING THE INDEPENDENT TRANSMISSION OF A CHANNEL QUALITY INDICATOR - The invention suggests a method for providing control signalling in a communication system of generating a control channel signal comprising a transport format and a channel quality indicator trigger signal for triggering a transmission of a channel quality indicator by at least one terminal to the base station, and transmitting the generated control channel signal to at least one terminal, wherein said transport format is a predetermined format for user data transmission by the at least one terminal to the base station and said control channel signal indicates a predetermined mode for reporting the channel quality indicator to the base station, wherein the channel quality indicator transmission is to be triggered by the at least one terminal based on the channel quality indicator trigger signal. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110107169 | ACTIVATION OF SEMI-PERSISTENT RESOURCE ALLOCATIONS IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK - The invention relates to a method for allocating radio resources to a mobile terminal for data transmission in a mobile communication system as performed by a mobile terminal and a base station, respectively. Moreover, the invention relates to a mobile terminal and a base station to perform such method, as well as an implementation of the method in software. The invention further provides a mobile communication system in which radio resources are allocated to a mobile terminal for uplink transmission. In order to avoid false activation of a semi-persistent resource allocation the invention defines new conditions under which a mobile terminal activates a semi-persistent resource allocation. Unlike for example in prior-art systems, a mobile terminal only activates a semi-persistent resource allocation, if it can confirm the activation command received from the access network. Preferably, the activation command and its confirmation are resource assignments. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110211504 | Signalling and Mapping of Measurement Reports - The present invention describes a method for configuring a measurement report type to be used by a receiver to report a measurement to a transmitter, wherein the measurement is reported to the transmitter in a report signal over a control channel, said method comprising selecting a first measurement report type and at least one second measurement report type to be used by the receiver to report the measurement, generating a measurement reporting pattern defining an occurrence of the first measurement report type and the at least one second measurement report type in the report signal transmitted by the receiver to the transmitter over control channel, and notifying the first measurement report type, the at least one second measurement report type, and the generated measurement reporting pattern to the receiver. | 09-01-2011 |
| 20110223924 | SEMI-PERSISTENT SCHEDULED RESOURCE RELEASE PROCEDURE IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK - The invention relates to a method for deactivating a semi-persistent resource allocation of a user equipment in an LTE-based mobile communication system. Furthermore, the invention also related to a user equipment and a eNode B implementing this method. To provide a mechanism for deactivating a semi-persistent resource allocation in a LTE system which is not requiring any changes to the Physical layer-to-MAC layer interface and/or preferably no changes to the PDCCH formats agreed by the 3GPP a combination of NDI value and MCS index is defined that is commanding the release of SPS resources. Alternatively, another solution proposed to define a special transport block size that when signaled in a PDCCH is commanding the release of SPS resources. | 09-15-2011 |
