Cross reference to related applications
This application claims in the priority of the 61/635th, No. 464 U.S. Provisional Application that 19 mesh is submitted April in 2012, Disclosure is fully incorporated in this by reference.
Technical field
Each embodiment of the invention generally relates to fields of communication technology, and more particularly, to one kind for solving The method and apparatus of code physical downlink control channel (PDCCH).
Background technology
Long term evolution (LTE) is widely used as next-generation mobile broadband technology.LTE system transmits downlink on PDCCH Link control message, therefore PDCCH is extremely important for user equipment (UE).Each UE has the search of their own empty Between, which may include one group of PDCCH candidate.PDCCH candidate can carry PDCCH, can not also carry PDCCH, but UE is just known which candidate carries after being only decoded all PDCCH candidates PDCCH.In other words, UE must detect PDCCH in a manner of blind.Accordingly, it is determined that the efficiency of PDCCH distribution decodes PDCCH Performance has very big influence.Therefore, efficient PDCCH candidate search plan is very important.
In general, PDCCH is transmitted on resource unit, which can also be referred to as control channel element (CCE).Tool Body, each CCE has 9 resource element groups (REG), wherein each REG includes 4 resource elements (RE).The search of UE is empty Between by the number of CCE, cohesive scale (aggregation level) (it determines by base station, for example, can be 1,2,4 or 8), wait The person's of choosing number and variable YkIt determines.Wherein, YkIt is 0 for universal search space, but it depends on the search specific to UE empty Between time-gap number and radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) value.Particular content can be referred to below with reference to document: 3GPPTS36.211 " Evolved UniversalIerrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA);Physical Channels and modulation " and 3GPP TS36.213, " Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access(E-UTRA);Physical layer procedures ", content are fully incorporated in this by reference.
A kind of direct mode of search PDCCH is all CCE of traversal.Specifically, UE receivers demodulate first and equilibrium is used Whether all REG of PDCCH, belong to universal search space and spy but regardless of the REG in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol Due to the CCE of the search space of UE.Then, whether receiver checks the CCE in search space.If the CCE is empty in search Between in, then receiver determines whether it is the starting CCE of PDCCH candidate.If it is starting CCE, PDCCH can be found All CCE of candidate.Finally, PDCCH candidate is sent to decoder to be decoded.
