Abstract:
A two-stage signaling concept for a datastream to be transmitted from a transmitter to a receiver is proposed. At the transmitter side, a plurality of frame headers are generated, each frame header including data transmission parameters for payload data. A super-frame header for a super-frame is generated. The super-frame includes a plurality of frames, each frame including one of the frame headers and payload data. The super-frame header indicates a set of super-frame-constant frame header transmission parameters for the frame headers of the plurality of frames of the super-frame. A receiver evaluates the super-frame header of to obtain the super-frame-constant frame header transmission parameters, which are then used to evaluate the plurality of frame headers PLH to retrieve the data transmission parameters. The proposed concept provides added flexibility, less signaling overhead, and/or an option of improved receiver performance at low SNR levels.
Abstract:
An adaptive downlink control channel structure is provided to enable a transmitter to switch between forward error correction codes that use either Chase combining or incremental redundancy hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) techniques. Chase combining HARQ can be more efficient for forward error correction codes that use higher code rates, while incremental redundancy can be more effective for forward error correction codes that use lower code rates. The transmitter will also selectively comprise the redundancy version indicator bits depending on the HARQ method selected, which can reduce the sizes of the transport blocks when not using incremental redundancy. A receiver device can also decode transport blocks and determine whether a redundancy version indicator is present based on the forward error correction code selected.

Abstract:
Methods, for use in a communications system, for transmitting information that applies a method for channel coding the CQI/PMI information, wherein a turbo coding method is applied when the size of the CQI/PMI information is above a first threshold value. The methods further include setting, based on the method applied for the channel coding, an offset value indicative of the difference in code rate between the code rate of the CQI/PMI information and the assigned code rate of the UL-SCH data information on the PUSCH. The methods also include determining, based on the offset value, the number of coded bits to be used for transmission of the CQI/PMI information, and transmitting the CQI/PMI information to a radio access network node on resources assigned based on the determined number of coded bits.

Abstract:
Preamble and header bit allocation for power savings within multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications. Within a multi-user packet, information (e.g., partial address information) related to a recipient group of wireless communication devices (e.g., as few as one wireless communication device or any subset of a number of wireless communication devices, sometimes including all of the wireless communication devices) is emplaced within a PHY (e.g., physical layer) header of such a multi-user packet to be communicated within a multi-user (MU) environment. Such recipient indicating information can be encoded with relatively higher robustness (e.g., lower coding rates, lower ordered modulation, cyclic redundancy check (CRC), etc.) that remaining portions of the multi-user packet. Various portions of the remainder of the multi-user packet may respectively correspond to different wireless communication devices (e.g., a first field for a first wireless communication device, a second field for a second wireless communication device, etc.).
