Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for configuring a starting position of a control channel in a wireless communication system, and a terminal using the same. The method includes receiving duration information about a physical downlink control channel from the first orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol of a downlink subframe; and configuring a first OFDM symbol after OFDM symbols indicated by the duration information, as a starting point of an enhanced-physical downlink control channel. The downlink subframe includes a plurality of subcarriers in a frequency domain and 12 or 14 OFDM symbols in a time domain. The PDCCH includes the first N (N is a natural number of from 1 to 4) number of OFDM symbols of the downlink subframe. The duration information indicates the N number of OFDM symbols. The E-PDCCH comprises the starting point to the last OFDM symbol of the downlink subframe.
Abstract:
A method is provided for uplink transmission in a wireless communication system. A user equipment (UE) configures multiple timing advance groups (TAGs), determines a power for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) toward a first serving cell in a first TAG, determines a power for transmitting an uplink channel toward a second serving cell in a second TAG, determines whether a portion of a last symbol of an ith subframe for transmitting the SRS toward the first serving cell in the first TAG is overlapped with an (i+1)th subframe for transmitting the uplink channel toward the second serving cell in the second TAG, and drops the SRS transmission on the last symbol in the ith subframe if a total power of the SRS and the uplink channel exceeds a maximum value on the overlapped portion of the last symbol.

Provided are a method and an apparatus for transmitting a reception confirmation in a wireless system. A terminal determines at least one downlink sub-frame for ACK/NACK feedback from each of a plurality of serving cells and determines the number of ACK/NACK bits for the plurality of serving cells. The terminal generates bundled ACK/NACK bits by arraying the ACK/NACK bits in the ascending order of the cell index of the plurality of serving cells, and transmits the bundled ACK/NACK bits.

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.
Abstract:
A method and low-cost/low-capability (LC) device are provided for performing a random access procedure in a wireless communication system. The LC device receives configuration information for a random access procedure from a base station. The configuration information includes resource information for transmitting a random access preamble, and the resource information is specific to the LC device. The LC device transmits, to a base station, a random access preamble on a random access resource determined based on the resource information. The LC device receives a random access response in response to the random access preamble. The random access resource is configured for each region of a coverage of the base station.

A method for encoding a transport block in a wireless communication system, and a wireless apparatus therefore are discussed. The method according to one embodiment includes determining a size of the transport block; attaching a first cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code to the transport block having the determined size to produce a first CRC-attached transport block; segmenting the first CRC-attached transport block into a plurality of code blocks when a size of the first CRC-attached transport block is larger than a maximum code block size; attaching a second CRC code to each of the plurality of code blocks to produce a plurality of second CRC-attached code blocks; and encoding the second CRC-attached code blocks by a turbo-encoder. The size of the transport block is determined from among a plurality of first predetermined transport block sizes and a plurality of second predetermined transport block sizes.
Abstract:
A method for receiving uplink control information in a wireless communication system supporting carrier aggregation (CA), and a base station therefore are discussed. The method according to one embodiment includes transmitting downlink data through a first downlink component carrier (DL CC) or a second DL CC; receiving an acknowledgement/not-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK); and receiving periodic channel state information (CSI). If the ACK/NACK collides with the periodic CSI and the ACK/NACK corresponds to downlink data transmitted through only the first DL CC, both the ACK/NACK and the periodic CSI are received in the same subframe of a first uplink component carrier (UL CC). If the ACK/NACK collides with the periodic CSI and the ACK/NACK corresponds to downlink data transmitted through both the first DL CC and the second DL CC, the periodic CSI is not received and only the ACK/NACK is received in the same subframe of the first UL CC.
Abstract:
A method, performed by a user equipment, is described for adjusting a transmit power for sounding reference signals (SRS) in a wireless communication system supporting a plurality of cells. A determination is made for each transmit power for a plurality of SRS to be transmitted on a subframe for a serving cell. If a total transmit power for the plurality of SRS to be transmitted on the subframe exceeds a maximum transmit power, the total transmit power is scaled for the plurality of SRS. The total transmit power for the plurality of SRS is scaled with a scaling factor parameter for the serving cell. Values of the scaling factor parameter are the same across serving cells.
