Priority of the present application for U.S. provisional patent application No.61/612188, entitled "wireless communication system and method," filed 3, 16, 2012, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
Technical Field

Disclosure of Invention
Release 8 of the third Generation partnership project (3GPP) Long term evolution (L TE) standard describes piggybacking Uplink Control Information (UCI) on a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH). channel quality indicator/precoding matrix indicator (CQI/PMI) resources are placed at the beginning of the uplink shared channel (U L-SCH) data resources and all Single Carrier frequency division multiple Access (SC-FDMA) symbols mapped sequentially on one subcarrier before continuing on the next subcarrier U L-SCH data is rate matched with the CQI/PMI data.
In accordance with the above, release 8 provides a method of transmitting Downlink Control Information (DCI) format 0/4,Assuming a bundling window size of M, if PUSCH transmission is adjusted based on a detected PDCCH of DCI format 0/4, only PUSCH transmission is adjustedThe number of HARQ-ACK bits, rather than the M bits, need to be fed back to the transmitting device, e.g., an advanced node base station (eNB). The D L subframes corresponding to the E-subframe not scheduled by the eNB are thus reducedAnd a useless HARQ-ACK bit.
L TE standard (Rel-10), Release 10, which introduces carrier aggregation, where more than one Component Carrier (CC) is available for data transmission in Release 10 Time Division Duplex (TDD) systems, in case of piggybacking on PUSCH, HARQ-ACK codebook size is determined by the number of CCs, their configured transmission mode and the number of downlink subframes in the bundling window.1-6 are configured for TDD U L-D L and when PUCCH format 3 is configured for transmission of HARQ-ACK, HARQ-ACK codebook size is determined by the following equation:
where C is the number of configured CCs, C2Is the number of CCs configured with a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission mode enabling reception of two transport blocks;for TDD U L-D L configurations 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6, the UE will assume PUSCH subframe nComprises the following steps:
TABLE 1
The DAI may be communicated in subframes having a predetermined correlation with the subframe n of each serving cell. For example, the DAI may be delivered in subframe n-k ', where k' is defined in the following table:
TABLE 2
Since the TDD U L-D L configurations of the respective serving cells are always the same in Rel-10, andmust not be greater than the bundling window size, soThe determined HARQ-ACK codebook size is always equal to the minimum number of HARQ-ACK bits and is the best compromise between HARQ-ACK overhead and performance.
In release 11 of the 3GPP L TE standard, inter-band CA for TDD with CCs (with different U L-D L configurations for each serving cell) is supported.

As shown in fig. 1, the UE108 may include a feedback controller 112 coupled with a transceiver module 116. The transceiver module 116 may further be coupled with one or more of the plurality of antennas 132 of the UE108 for wireless communication with other components of the network 100 (e.g., the eNB 104).
In some embodiments, the UE108 may utilize Carrier Aggregation (CA), wherein some Component Carriers (CCs) are aggregated to communicate between the eNB 104 and the UE 108. the transceiver module 116 may be configured to communicate with the eNB 104 over multiple serving cells employing a respective plurality of CCs.
Table 3 below illustrates an example U L-D L configuration that may be used in various embodiments of the present invention.
TABLE 3
In table 3, D is a subframe of downlink transmission, U is a subframe of uplink transmission, and S is a special subframe used, for example, in guard time. In some embodiments, a special subframe may include three fields: a downlink pilot time slot (DwPTS), a Guard Period (GP), and an uplink pilot time slot (UpPTS) of the DCI may be included.
At initial connection setup, the UE108 may employ a level one CC (also may be referred to as CC)0) Connected with a primary serving cell (PCell) of the eNB 104. This connection may be used for various functions such as security, mobility, configuration, etc. Subsequently, the UE108 may connect with one or more secondary serving cells (scells) of the eNB 104 using one or more secondary CCs. These connections may be used to provide additional radio resources.
Fig. 2 illustrates an example TDD communication structure 200 with HARQ-ACK timing information according to embodiments in the TDD communication structure 200, three serving cells may be configured for communication between the eNB 104 and the UE 108. for example, PCell with U L-D L configuration 0, SCell 1 with U L-D L configuration 2, and SCell2 with U L-D L configuration 1 in other embodiments, other numbers of serving cells may be configured for communication between the eNB 104 and the UE 108.
In the TDD communication structure 200, the PCell may have a bundling window (bundling window) M including one subframe0The subframe may include a downlink transmission (e.g., a PDSCH transmission or a PDCCH transmission indicating a downlink semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) version) for which corresponding HARQ-ACK information is transmitted as a PUSCH transmission in an associated uplink subframe (e.g., subframe 7 of SCell 1). SCell 1 may have a bundling window M including four subframes1The four subframes may include a downlink transmission for which corresponding HARQ-ACK information is transmitted as a PUSCH transmission in an associated uplink subframe (e.g., subframe 7 of SCell 1). SCell2 may have bundling window M including two subframes2The two subframes may include a downlink transmission for which corresponding HARQ-ACK information is transmitted as a PUSCH transmission in an associated uplink subframe (e.g., subframe 7 of SCell 1. D L sub-frame of the corresponding bundling window to be used to transmit the corresponding HARQ-ACK informationThe correlation between frames and U L subframes may be based on a predetermined HARQ timing reference examples of such HARQ timing references are shown and discussed below with respect to table 4.
In the example shown in fig. 2, it is shown that all subframes capable of carrying a downlink transmission (for which the corresponding HARQ-ACK information is transmitted) have PDSCH transmissions. However, in other embodiments, the eNB may not schedule downlink transmissions on one or more of these subframes.
Fig. 3 illustrates a method 300 of determining a HARQ-ACK codebook size, in accordance with some embodiments. The method 300 may be performed by a feedback controller of a UE, such as the feedback controller 112 of the UE 108. In some embodiments, the UE may include and/or have access to one or more computer-readable media having instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause the UE or feedback controller to perform method 300.
At 304, the feedback controller may determine HARQ-ACK timing and bundling window for each configured serving cell. In some embodiments, the feedback controller may determine, for each configured serving cell, a total number of subframes within a bundling window associated with uplink subframes. In general, the HARQ-ACK bundling window may include both downlink subframes and special subframes, as they are both capable of carrying PDSCH transmissions. However, in some embodiments, certain special subframes may be excluded from the bundling window in order to reduce the HARQ-ACK codebook size. For example, special subframes with configuration 0 and configuration 5 of a standard downlink Cyclic Prefix (CP) or configuration 0 and configuration 4 of an extended downlink CP may be excluded from the bundling window because they typically do not carry PDSCH transmissions. The special subframe configuration may be defined in accordance with table 4.2-1 of 3GPP Technical Specification (TS)36.211V10.5.0 (2012-06).
In some embodiments, the set index K may be determined according to a predetermined downlink correlation set index for TDD: { k } is a function of0,k1,...kM-1Determine HARQ-ACK timing and bundling window McAs shown in the U L-D L configuration of the HARQ timing reference of table 4.
TABLE 4
In various embodiments, each serving cell may have the same or different HARQ timing reference as the U L-D L configuration of the serving cell the U L-D L configuration of the serving cell is conveyed in the System Information Block (SIB)1 of the serving cell and, thus, may also be referred to as the SIB1 configuration of the serving cell the HARQ timing reference of the PCell may be the same as the SIB1 configuration of the PCell, while the HARQ timing reference of the SCell may be selected according to table 5 by considering both the SIB1 configuration of the SCell and the SIB1 configuration of the PCell.
TABLE 5
According to table 5, and referring to fig. 2, PCell will use U L-D L configuration 0 for its HARQ timing reference, SCell 1 will use U L-D L configuration 2 for its HARQ timing reference, and SCell2 will use U L-D L configuration 1 for its HARQ timing reference although this embodiment shows both scells using their SIB1 configuration for HARQ timing reference, in other embodiments scells may use other U L-D L configurations for their HARQ timing reference-for example, if SCell 1 has SIB1 configuration of 3 and PCell has SIB1 configuration of 1, SCell will use U L-D L configuration 4 for its HARQ timing reference.
To further illustrate the use of tables 4 and 5, consider the following since subframe 7 (e.g., n-7) of SCell 1 is specified as an uplink subframe for transmission of HARQ-ACK information, the associated downlink subframe may be determined by n-k, where k ∈ kcIs the base of element set K, and the specific subframe of the bundling window is composed of n-K0,...n-kM-IAnd (4) determining. Therefore, the size M of the bundling window of the PCell0Is 1 (in table 4, subframe n ═ 7, considering that only one element is associated with U L-D L configuration 0), and M0For example, the size M of the bundling window of D L subframe 1. SCell 1 is 7-6 ═ 11Is 4 (consider the four elements of Table 4), and M1The D L sub-frame of (1) is a sub-frame of the previous frame (7-8)Frame 3(7-4), subframe 1(7-6), subframe 0(7-7), and subframe 9. Size M of bundling window of SCell22Is 2 (consider the two elements of Table 4), and M2The D L subframes of (1) are subframe 0(7-7) and subframe 1 (7-6).
At 308, the feedback controller may determine the DAI. The DAI may be communicated in a subframe having a predetermined correlation with an uplink subframe n, e.g., which would carry the HARQ-ACK information for the bundling window in subframe 7 of SCell 1. In some embodiments, the DAI may be communicated in subframe n-k ', where k' is defined in Table 2. In some embodiments, the DAI may be used to determine according to Table 1 A maximum value of a number of scheduled downlink subframes within a bundling window that may correspond to multiple serving cells. With reference to figure 2 of the drawings,since 4 downlink subframes are scheduled in SCell 1.
At 312, the feedback controller may determine a number of HARQ-ACK bits on a PUSCH of an uplink subframe corresponding to the configured serving cell. In some embodiments, the feedback controller may be based onTo determine the number of HARQ-ACK bits for each serving cell,based on the DAI of the uplink resource allocation, and the feedback controller may determine the number of subframes of the bundling window of the corresponding serving cell according to the HARQ timing reference configuration.
In some embodiments, the number of HARQ-ACK bits for the c-th serving cell, O, may be determined using the following equationc。
Wherein U is U among all configured serving cellscMaximum value of (1), UcIs the total number of subframes (e.g., subframe(s) n-K described with respect to table 4, where K ∈ K) having transmissions (e.g., PDSCH and PDCCH indicating downlink SPS release) received in the bundling window of the c-th serving cell,determined by a DAI included in the DCI, which may have format 0 or 4, the DAI allocating uplink transmission resources of the serving cell, wherein the UCI is piggybacked on a PUSCH (e.g., SCell 1) in subframe n-k 'according to table 1, wherein k' is defined in table 2; if the transmission mode configured in the c-th serving cell supports one transport block, it is determined whether the transport block is supported by the c-th serving cellOtherwiseAnd if X ≦ Y, Min (X, Y) ═ X, otherwise Min (X, Y) ═ Y.
In embodiments where none of the plurality of aggregated serving cells includes configuration 5 as the HARQ timing reference configuration,will be at least as large as U, eliminating equation 1An item. Thus, equation 1 reduces to:
thus, in some embodiments, if none of the aggregate serving cell's HARQ timing reference configurations is configuration 5, equation 2 will be used in and associated by U L subframe n withU L grant to regulate HARQ-ACK transmission on PUSCH, whereas if the HARQ timing reference of any of the aggregated serving cells is configured as configuration 5, equation 1 would be used in and associated by U L subframe n withU L of (1) grants HARQ-ACK transmission on the regulated PUSCH.
It may be noted that in some embodiments, neither equation 1 nor equation 2 may be used in the case where the serving cell (e.g., SCell 1 in fig. 2) performing PUSCH scheduling has SIB1 configuration 0. In these embodiments, the eNB may not be able to transmit DAI in DCI format 0/4, and thus, the UE will not be able to determine W.
HARQ-ACK feedback bits for the c-th serving cellIs constructed as follows, wherein c is ≧ 0: HARQ-ACK for PDSCH transmission is associated with a DCI message for PDDCH or PDCCH transmission indicating the downlink SPS release and transmission in subframe n-kIn association with, if the transmission mode configured in the c-th serving cell supports one transport block, or withIs associated with otherwiseAnd (C) associating, wherein DAI (k) is a value of DAI, which is used for resource allocation of a downlink subframe, the value of DAI being in DCI format 1A/1B/1D/1/2/2A/2B/2C detected in subframe n-k, depending on the bundling window in the C-th serving cell. The HARQ-ACK feedback bit without any detected PDSCH transmission or without detected PDCCH indicating downlink SPS release may be set to NACK.
An example is provided below, with reference to fig. 2, and it is assumed that transmission mode 4 with two active transport blocks is configured. The special subframe of each CC is configured to have a configuration 3 of a standard downlink Cyclic Prefix (CP). As stated above, in this example, the eNB may transmit at various occasions within the specified bundling window, e.g., subframe 1 of PCell, subframes 9, 0, 1, and 3 of SCell 1, and subframes 0 and 1 of SCell 2. In addition, the UE may receive an uplink grant for a PUSCH transmission in subframe 3 of SCell 1 at subframe 7 of SCell 1. Since the maximum of the total number of PDSCH scheduling subframes within the bundling window is 4 according to the current assumption, uplink grant of subframe 7Should be set to 4 by the eNB. O of HARQ-ACK bit of PCell according to equation 10The value can be calculated as follows
In the same manner, the HARQ-ACK bits of SCell 1 and SCell2 may be determined to be O, respectively18 and O 24. This is graphically illustrated in the HARQ-ACK bit generation table 400 of fig. 4, according to some embodiments. If the HARQ-ACK bit is determined according to the Rel-10 method, the result will be O0=8、O18 and O2=8。
At 316, the feedback controller may determine a HARQ-ACK codebook size on the PUSCH of the uplink subframe. The HARQ-ACK codebook size may be determined by summing the number of HARQ-ACK bits corresponding to each of the plurality of serving cells according to the following equation,
in the example discussed above, O — 14. In the Rel-10 method, O ═ 24. Thus, the described embodiments reduce the HARQ-ACK overhead by 42%. In this manner, PUSCH performance and system throughput may be improved without affecting HARQ-ACK performance.
