    Abstract: A method to allocate physical radio resources for both distributed and localized transmission schemes of ePDCCH and configure common and UE-specific search space for UE is provided. In one embodiment, a UE receives a first high-layer information to determine a first set of PRBs. The UE determines a first set of candidate ePDCCHs within the first set of PRBs, wherein one or more candidate ePDCCHs potentially carries DCI intended for the UE. The UE then decodes the first set of candidate ePDCCHs to obtain the DCI intended for the UE. Similar steps are performed for a second set of candidate ePDCCHs potentially carrying DCI intended for the UE. The allocated radio resources of the candidate ePDCCHs may be distributed or localized and constitute either common or UE-specific search space. Blind decoding complexity is reduced.

    Abstract: A method of DRX operation enhancement in adaptive TDD systems is proposed. A UE configures and enters DRX operation in an LTE/LTE-A mobile communication network. The UE obtains adaptive TDD configuration information from a base station. The adaptive TDD configuration information comprises an actual TDD configuration and a reference TDD configuration. The UE performs DRX timer counting and HARQ timer counting based on the reference TDD configuration. The UE also synchronizes DRX status with the base station. With the reference TDD configuration, it can avoid the potential misunderstanding between eNB and UE regarding DRX and HARQ RTT timing when TDD configuration changes.

    Abstract: A method of DRX and HARQ operation enhancement in adaptive TDD systems is proposed. A UE establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with a base station in a mobile communication network. The UE obtains adaptive time division duplex (TDD) configuration information from the base station, wherein the adaptive TDD configuration information comprises an actual TDD configuration and/or a reference TDD configuration. The UE performs a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) round trip time (RTT) timer counting for each downlink (DL) HARQ process based on the adaptive TDD configuration information. The UE can avoid the potential misunderstanding between eNB and UE regarding HARQ RTT timing when TDD configuration changes.

    Abstract: A method of UE transmit power adjustment based on TPC command in adaptive TDD systems is proposed. A UE obtains TDD configuration information from a base station in an adaptive TDD system. The UE also obtains an HARQ reference configuration from the base station. The UE then receives a transmit power control (TPC) command in one or more previous subframes. The UE performs power adjustment in a subsequent subframe based on the TPC command. The location of the previous subframes is determined based on the HARQ reference configuration. In one embodiment, an UL HARQ reference configuration is applied for PUSCH power control. In another embodiment, a DL HARQ reference configuration is applied for PUCCH power control.

Methods of TDD grouping, RACH (random access channel) resource allocation, and DL/UL data transmission and HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) process to serve legacy UEs without interfering the operation of new released UEs are proposed. With the methods proposed in this invention, both the legacy UEs and the new released UEs can be served in the adaptive TDD systems and the data transmission from the legacy UEs would not interfere the data reception of the new released UEs.

    Abstract: A two-level physical structure is defined for better diversity for both distributed and localized transmission in enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH). First level is a physical unit of enhanced resource element groups (eREGs), where the group of REs is predefined for each eREG. Second level is a logical unit of enhanced control channel elements (eCCEs), where the group of eREGs is predefined or configurable by higher layer for each eCCE. For distributed transmission of ePDCCH, eCCE consists of several eREGs that are distributed in multiple non-contiguous PRBs spreading over the whole channel frequency. Downlink control information (DCI) is transmitted on a number of aggregated eCCEs according to the modulation and coding level required. The utilization reference signals of antenna ports for ePDCCH demodulation is based on the logical order of eCCEs and the aggregation level for DCI transmission.
