Abstract:
A reference signal transmission method in a downlink MIMO system is disclosed. The downlink MIMO system supports a first UE supporting N transmission antennas among a total of M transmission antennas (where M>N) and a second UE supporting the M transmission antennas. The method includes transmitting, by a base station (BS), subframe-associated information which designates a first subframe in which data for the first UE and the second UE is transmitted and a second subframe in which data only for the second UE can be transmitted within a radio frame having a plurality of subframes, and transmitting the first subframe and the second subframe. Reference signals corresponding to antenna ports ‘0’ to ‘N−1’ of the N antennas are mapped to the first subframe, and reference signals corresponding to antenna ports ‘0’ to ‘M−1’ of the M antennas are mapped to the second subframe.

A method, a user equipment, and a base station for maintaining uplink synchronization in a wireless communication system supporting carrier aggregation are discussed. The method of maintaining uplink synchronization at a user equipment according to an embodiment includes receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) order. The PDCCH order indicates an initiation of a random access procedure and includes a carrier indicator field and a predefined set of values of a 1-bit flag indicating a localized/distributed resource block assignment, and a resource block assignment field. The method further includes transmitting a random access preamble through an uplink component carrier corresponding to a value of the carrier indicator field among a plurality of uplink component carriers.
Abstract:
A method for channel-coding information bits using a code generation matrix including 32 rows and A columns corresponding to length of the information bits includes, channel-coding the information bits having “A” length using basis sequences having 32-bit length corresponding to columns of the code generation matrix, and outputting the channel-coded result as an output sequence. If “A” is higher than 10, the code generation matrix is generated when (A-10) additional basis sequences were added as column-directional sequences to a first or second matrix. The first matrix is a TFCI code generation matrix composed of 32 rows and 10 columns used for TFCI coding. The second matrix is made when at least one of an inter-row location or an inter-column location of the first matrix was changed. The additional basis sequences satisfy a value 10 of a minimum Hamming distance.

A method and communication apparatus for controlling transmission powers in a wireless communication system supporting a plurality of component carriers are described. When a sounding reference symbol (SRS) transmission overlaps with a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission and a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission in a time domain, a check is made as to whether a total of a PUSCH transmission power for the PUSCH transmission on a first component carrier, a PUCCH transmission power for the PUCCH transmission on the first component carrier and a SRS transmission power for the SRS transmission on a second component carrier exceeds a maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus. The SRS is dropped if the total of the PUSCH transmission power, the PUCCH transmission power and the SRS transmission power exceeds the maximum transmission power configured for the communication apparatus.
