Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of indicating special transmitting contents in radio communication systems. SOLUTION: A radio communication infrastructure entity assigns a plurality of schedulable radio communication entities to a group wherein each entity is assigned a location within the group. The infrastructure entity indicates which of the plurality of schedulable radio communication entities assigned to the group have been assigned a radio resource, for example using a terminal assignments field 910 and indicates special transmission information using a special transmissions field 905. The special transmissions field 905 is used to indicate which of the schedulable radio communication entities are receiving a special transmission. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for sharing a unique identifier among a plurality of receivers. SOLUTION: A network controller (140) can establish at least one unique identifier and at least one corresponding time slot for which the unique identifier is valid for each assigned carrier of a wireless receiver (120). The network controller does this by determining at least one unique identifier and at least one corresponding time slot for which the unique identifier is valid for each assigned carrier of the wireless receiver and then sending an indication of the unique identifier(s), time slot(s), and carrier(s) to the wireless receiver. The wireless receiver receives the indication and then monitors at least one channel using the at least one unique identifier during the at least one corresponding time slot indicated.

Abstract:
A base station (103) assigns a set of mobile stations (101) to a group wherein the group will share a set of radio resources (770). A shared control channel information element (501) is sent to the group of mobile stations (101) and provides a bitmap having fields for group ordering (511), resource allocations (530), continuation resources (540) for HARQ, and an ordering pattern (513). If a mobile station requires retransmission it will access the resources indicated by the continuation resources field (540) in order to receive data. The HARQ blocks may be assigned to a mobile station based upon an index (601) which may correspond to the mobile station vocoder rate. Further, HARQ subgroups may be defined to associate subgroups of mobile stations with specific HARQ transmission opportunities on the super-frame and allocated by a rotating bitmap.

Abstract:
A base station (103) assigns a set of mobile stations (101) to a group wherein the group will share a set of radio resources (710). A shared control channel information element (501) is sent to the group of mobile stations (101) and provides a bitmap having fields for group ordering (511), resource allocations (530), failure handling resources (540), and an ordering pattern (513). If a mobile station fails to decode the shared control channel information element (501) it will access the failure handling resources in order to receive data. The failure handling channel may be persistent in some embodiments, or may be released after the mobile station is once again able to decode the shared control channel information element (501) and thereby share in the shared resource pool allocated to its mobile station group.

A base station (103) assigns a set of mobile stations (101) to a group wherein the group will share a set of radio resources. A shared control channel information element (501) is sent to the group of mobile stations (101) and provides a bitmap having fields for a control header (502), utilized resources (510), and first HARQ transmission assignments (530). HARQ subgroups may be defined to associate subgroups of mobile stations with specific HARQ transmission opportunities on the super-frame. The mobile stations (101) are assigned resources in a persistent manner in each long frame of a super-frame for which a first HARQ transmission opportunity is defined.
Abstract:
Methods (440, 500, 600) and corresponding systems (20, 24, 190) for scheduling uplink resources for communication with a base station (22) include receiving an uplink resource request (82, 204) for an uplink channel resource for a subscriber station (24). In response to the uplink resource request (82), generating an uplink resource grant message (206) for scheduling a selected uplink channel resource for the subscriber station (24); and inserting the uplink resource grant message into a shared traffic packet (158, 208) for transmission from the base station (22) on a shared traffic channel (56).
