Abstract:
A method for transmitting control information to a wireless node in a communications system includes mapping, by a communications controller, the control information onto resources associated with a wireless node specific search space, the wireless node specific search space being located in a first data region of a first subframe, the first subframe including a first common search space in addition to the wireless node specific search space. The method also includes generating, by the communications controller, a location indicator identifying a location of the wireless node specific search space. The method further includes transmitting, by the communications controller, the first subframe to the wireless node, and transmitting, by the communications controller, the location indicator to the wireless node.
Abstract:
Signaling resource partition of a component carrier in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The number of primary resource blocks and the number of extension resource blocks of the component carrier is encoded and signaled to a UE, so the UE can obtain the resource partition of the component carrier.
Abstract:
A communications system and a method for performing communications are provided. User Equipments (UEs) are provided with UE-specific configuration information, such as CSI-RS (Channel Status Indication-Reference Signal) patterns, antenna port groupings, reference signal configurations, subframe configurations, and/or scrambling codes. The UEs process the received reference signals in accordance with the received configuration information and feedback measurement information for, e.g., PMI/CQI/RI (Precoding Matrix Indicator/Channel Quality Indicator/Rank Indicator of the precoding matrix) and/or the RLM/RRM (Radio Link Monitor/Radio Resource Management).

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for generating a single statically defined downlink reference MCS table consisting of transport block sizes (TBSs) computed for 29 MCSs for each of j PRBs where j=1, . . . , NRBDL. Three entries of the MCS table are reserved for implicit modulation order signaling (e.g. in the downlink) or implicit redundancy version signaling (e.g. in the uplink). Each MCS entry in the table is populated by a TBS and the table entries are accessed based on a 5-bit MCS index and resource allocation information, indicating the number of PRBs is signaled via a scheduling message which may be a grant or assignment message. A grant or assignment message may further include a 5-bit MCS field for each transport block which, along with the resource allocation information, enables the UE to determine the scheduled TBS.
Abstract:
A communication system and a method of communicating data. A first backhaul site can be dynamically selected from a plurality of backhaul sites that are each configured to wirelessly communicate with an access point. A controller can dynamically configure a transmission parameter used to communicate a first backhaul data stream between the access point and the first backhaul site. The first backhaul data stream can be derived from a source data stream and can be wirelessly communicated between the access point and the first backhaul site. A second backhaul site also can be selected. A second backhaul data stream also can be derived from the source data stream and wirelessly communicated between the access point and the second backhaul site. The first and second backhaul data streams can be combined.
Abstract:
A method and system for link adaptation between a wireless multi-carrier access point (102) and a wireless multi-carrier communication device (104) is described. The wireless multi-carrier access point obtains a set of available LEP methods from the wireless multi-carrier communication device. The wireless multi-carrier access point selects an LEP method from the set of available LEP methods, based on at least one link parameter. The wireless multi-carrier access point then communicates the LEP method selected, to the wireless multi-carrier communication device. The selected LEP method is used during the transmission of information between the wireless multi-carrier access point and the wireless multi-carrier communication device.

This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract. A method and structure of processing soft information in a block code decoder, includes a soft-input soft-output decoder (910) receiving a length n soft input vector, creating a binary vector Y corresponding to the length n soft input vector, hard decoding each linear function Xi of Y and a test pattern Zi of one or more test patterns, wherein if the hard decoding is successful a codeword produced by the hard decoding of the linear function Xi is added to a set S, removing redundant codewords in S to form a reduced set S′ (520), and an extrinsic value estimator (1140) generating n soft outputs based on c estimated soft output values and (n−c) non-estimated soft output values (530) wherein the c estimated soft output values are computed from one or more positions of the length n soft input vector and one or more codewords in the set S′.
