20090093257 | VARIABLE BANDWIDTH IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method, device, and system that use narrowband channels to provide higher re-use without multiplying the operator spectrum requirement. If a communication system supports variable carrier bandwidth channels, the narrow channel capacity can be divided among adjacent cells to provide higher re-use. | 04-09-2009 |
20090103562 | Signaling limitation of multiple payload sizes for resource assignments - Introducing a set of limitations on where different payload sizes are allowed in a control channel element aggregation ‘tree’ is shown. Following these limitations, the network element (e.g. Node B) will have a large flexibility for scheduling users, while the terminal (e.g. User Equipment) will have an option for still keeping the number of blind decoding attempts at a quite low number. | 04-23-2009 |
20090175233 | Method, Apparatus And Computer Program To Map A Downlink Resource To A Related Uplink Transmission - In an exemplary embodiment a method includes using a predetermined parameter to determine a rate of uplink radio resources to downlink radio resources; mapping an uplink radio resource to a unique one of the downlink radio resources dependent at least in part on the rate; and receiving on the mapped unique one of the downlink radio resources a reply to the uplink radio resource. Apparatus and computer programs are also described, for both a user equipment and a network node. | 07-09-2009 |
20090276675 | SIGNALING OF REDUNDANCY VERSION AND NEW DATA INDICATION - Example methods and apparatus for communicating encoded data blocks in wireless communication systems are disclosed. In one example embodiment, a method for receiving an encoded data block includes receiving a data transmission including a subset of a plurality of bits of the encoded data block. The example method also includes receiving a first control signal indicating whether the received subset is a first received subset associated with the encoded data block or whether one or more subsets were previously received for the encoded data block. The example method also further includes receiving a second control signal, the second control signal having a first state and a second state. In the example method, the first state of the second control signal indicates that the received subset includes a first predefined subset of the plurality of bits of the encoded data block and the second state of the second control signal indicates that the received subset includes one of a plurality of other predefined subsets of the plurality of bits of the encoded data block. In this example embodiment, determining which of the other predefined subsets is included in the received subset is based on one or more system parameters of the wireless communication system. Further in this example, the state of the second control signal is selectable between its first state and its second state on a data transmission by data transmission basis, regardless of whether or not one or more subsets of the encoded data block were previously received. | 11-05-2009 |
20090303951 | Channel quality signaling for persistent/semi-persistent radio resource allocations - A persistent or a semi-persistent uplink resource allocation also includes an indication for a user equipment UE to send channel quality reports. The format for the channel quality report is determined (based on a transmission mode for which the UE receives a downlink shared channel). In at least first transmissions of user data for instances of the persistently allocated uplink resource the UE sends user data and a channel quality report according to the determined format. For the case that a NACK is received in reply to one of those sent user data with channel quality reports, four options are detailed: re-send the NACK'd user data on a next instance of the persistently allocated UL resource with or without a channel quality report, and re-send the NACK'd user data on a dynamically allocated uplink resource with or without a channel quality report. | 12-10-2009 |
20100182939 | CONFIGURATION OF MULTI-PERIODICITY SEMI-PERSISTENT SCHEDULING FOR TIME DIVISION DUPLEX OPERATION IN A PACKET-BASED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Systems and methods for determining the periodicity for a multiple periodicity SPS allocation using implicit rules for a TDD communications system are disclosed. A communication terminal such as a UE is provided that may determine the periodicity for a multiple periodicity SPS allocation using implicit rules to calculate a delta value to form a long time period and a shorter time period, forming a periodic pattern where the rules depend on the TDD configuration being used. In another embodiment a communication terminal such as a UE is provided that may determine the periodicity for a multiple periodicity SPS allocation using implicit rules to calculate a delta value to form a long time period and a shorter time period forming a periodic pattern, where the rules depend on the TDD configuration being used and the HARQ process being used. | 07-22-2010 |
20100182968 | METHODS, SYSTEMS, APPARATUSES AND RELATED COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ALLOCATION OF COMMUNICATION RESOURCES - It is disclosed a method comprising generating position-related indication information indicating a positional relation between communication resource update information and communication resource information, including the generated position-related indication information into communication resource allocation information, and transmitting the communication resource information, the communication resource allocation information being a portion of the communication resource information. There is further disclosed a method comprising receiving transmitted communication resource information comprising both communication resource allocation information and position-related indication information indicating a positional relation between communication resource update information and communication resource information, retrieving the communication resource allocation information from the communication resource information based on the position-related indication information, transceiving signals based on the communication resource allocation information using an allocated communication resource, and updating the communication resource based on the communication resource update information. | 07-22-2010 |
20120184282 | Apparatus and Method for Providing Access to a Local Area Network - An apparatus, system and method for providing access to a local area network for user equipment operable in a wide area network such as a long term evolution cellular network.

20120207121 | Idle Mode Camping Priority - In accordance with the exemplary embodiments of the invention, as described herein, there is at least a method, apparatus, and a computer program code to receive signaling from an access node of a wireless network that uses component carrier aggregation, the signaling including an identification of a plurality of component carriers and a priority associated with individual ones of the component carriers, and select one of the component carriers to camp on when in an idle mode. Further, in accordance with the exemplary embodiments of the invention, there is transmitting signaling from an access node of a wireless network that uses component carrier aggregation, the signaling including an identification of a plurality of component carriers and a priority associated with individual ones of the component carriers, and receiving a random access channel corresponding to a component carrier selected by a user equipment in accordance with the transmitted signaling. | 08-16-2012 |
20120327910 | Activating Component Carriers in a Carrier Aggregation - In an exemplary embodiment there is sent to a user equipment UE downlink control information DCI comprising an indication of an access codeword and an indication that at least one component carrier CC is activated for the UE, and there is received from the UE the access codeword which is an acknowledgement that the UE has activated the at least one CC. The access codeword is received on an uplink channel which a) lies in the at least one activated CC if there is an activated uplink channel in the activated CC, or b) is previously activated if there is no activated uplink channel in the activated CC. In another embodiment DCI comprising the above two indications is received from a network, the received indications are used to select and access the at least one CC; and activating the CC is acknowledged by sending the access codeword. | 12-27-2012 |
