Abstract:
Some techniques are disclosed for determining downlink control information for use in each cell in carrier aggregation using a FDD cell and a TDD cell together. One aspect of the present invention relates to user equipment, comprising: a transmission and reception unit configured to transmit and receive a radio channel to/from a base station via multiple cells configured for carrier aggregation in accordance with a frequency division duplex (FDD) mode and a time division duplex (TDD) mode; a cell management unit configured to manage the multiple cells; and a communication control unit configured to determine whether a duplex mode applied to a primary cell in the multiple cells is either the FDD mode or the TDD mode and receive and demodulate downlink control information compliant with the determined duplex mode for each carrier aggregation implemented cell.
Abstract:
An uplink transmission is carried out adequately even when CA is executed by employing different duplex modes between multiple cells. A user terminal communicates with an FDD cell and a TDD cell that employ carrier aggregation, receives DL signals transmitted from each cell, detects the DL signals received, makes retransmission control decisions, and allocates and feeds back delivery acknowledgement signals in response to each DL signal in a predetermined UL subframe. When aggregating and allocating delivery acknowledgement signals for the DL signal of each cell in an uplink control channel in a UL subframe of the TDD cell, a feedback mechanism makes it possible to allocate the delivery acknowledgement signals to all DL subframes of the FDD cell, and DL signals are detected assuming the number of DL subframes of the FDD cell to be allocated to a UL subframe of the TDD cell does not exceed predetermined value.
