Abstract:
Disclosed is a base station apparatus which allows an idle mode UE, in a small cell using S-NCT, to recognize the small cell and to receive a DCI. The base station apparatus is configured to use a carrier configuration which has no region for mapping a PDCCH and in which an EPDCCH is mapped in a data region. The base station apparatus includes: master information generating section 101 configured to generate allocation information indicating a resource which forms a search space in the EPDCCH and being scrambled with a cell ID of the base station apparatus; and transmitting section 107 configured to transmit the allocation information. a detection signal indicating the cell ID, and a control signal assigned in the search space.
Abstract:
A wireless communication terminal capable of increasing the utilization efficiency of ACK/NACK resources and suppressing unnecessary PUSCH band reduction while avoiding ACK/NACK collision. The wireless communication terminal has a configuration provided with: a reception unit for receiving a control signal including ARI via an E-PDCCH set from among one or a plurality of E-PDCCH sets; a control unit for determining an offset value indicated by the ARI on the basis of whether or not a resource region that may be taken by a dynamic ACK/NACK resource corresponding to the E-PDCCH set that has received the control signal and a resource region that may be taken by a dynamic ACK/NACK resource corresponding to another E-PDCCH set overlap, and imparting an offset to the ACK/NACK resource according to the value of the ARI; and a transmission unit for transmitting the ACK/NACK signal using the determined ACK/NACK resource.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a CCE+ number allocation method which reduces the ACK/NACK (Acknowledgment/Negative Acknowledgment) collision probability in a mixed system containing an LTE (Long Term Evolution) system and an LTE+ (Long Term Evolution Advanced) system. A CCE(Control Channel Element)+ number is defined by selecting a number from CCE numbers of the CCE to contain PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) allocated in a resource element region constituting CCE+ where PDCCH + is arranged. This can prevent overlapped selection of the CCE number and the CCE + number even when the PDCCH and the PDCCH+ are simultaneously transmitted. Thus, it is possible to reduce the collision probability of ACK/NACK correlated to the CCE number and the CCE+ number.
Abstract:
In a transmitting device, each of the plurality of mapping candidates that make up the search space is configured from the same number of control channel elements as an aggregation level value, the control channel elements are obtained by dividing each physical resource block into a predetermined number, and the quantity of resource elements contained in each of the predetermined number of control channel elements in each physical resource block adopts at least two types of values. A search space setting unit (102) sets a search space of which the aggregation level value is 2 or more so that, between a plurality of mapping candidates, variation in the total quantity of resource elements contained in the control channel elements that make up the mapping candidates is as small as possible.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a base station apparatus in which a configuration section (102) configures, within a data assignable region for a terminal apparatus (200), a first search space and a second search space each being a candidate to which control information is assigned, each of the first search space and the second search space including a plurality of control channel elements, and a signal assignment section (105) assigns control information to each of the first search space and the second search space. In addition, the configuration section (102) allocates numbers to a plurality of first control channel elements included in the first search space in an ascending order, and allocates numbers larger than or identical with the numbers allocated to the first control channel elements to a plurality of second control channel elements included in the second search space.
Abstract:
In the present invention, even if different UL-DL configurations are set for a plurality of unit bands, notification timing of error detection results for SCell is not dispersed complicatedly, and the processing relating to the error detection results can be simplified. At the reference notification timing of a response signal with respect to downlink data of a second unit band, if a sub-frame of the second unit band is an uplink communication sub-frame and a sub-frame of a first unit band is a downlink communication sub-frame, a control unit (208) transmits the response signal with respect to the downlink data in a specific uplink communication sub-frame (for example, #2 or #7) set in the first unit band.
