- OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing
- OFDM is a transmission technique for transmitting data using multiple carriers.
- OFDM is a multicarrier data transmission technique that parallelizes the serial input stream into parallel data streams and modulates the data streams onto the orthogonal multiple carriers, i.e., sub-carrier channels.
- OFDM technology is applied in various digital communications fields such as Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB), Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB), Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), and Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode (WATM).
- DAB Digital Audio Broadcasting
- DVD Digital Video Broadcasting
- WLAN Wireless Local Area Network
- WATM Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode
- FFT Fast Fourier Transform
- IFFT Inverse Fast Fourier Transform
- OFDM Frequency Division Multiplexing
- OFDM is advantageous in that it is able to control Inter-symbol Interference (ISI) using the guard interval and reduce the complexity of equalizer in view of hardware as well as spectral efficiency and robustness to the frequency selective fading and multipath fading. OFDM also maintains a robustness against impulse noise so as to be employed in various communication systems.
- ISI Inter-symbol Interference
- modulation signals are located in the two-dimensional time-frequency resources.
- Resources on the time domain are divided into different OFDM symbols, and are orthogonal with each other.
- Resources on the frequency domain are divided into different tones, and are also orthogonal with each other.
- the OFDM scheme defines one minimum unit resource by designating a particular OFDM symbol on the time domain and a particular tone on the frequency domain.
- the unit resource is referred to as a Resource Element (RE). Since different REs are orthogonal with each other, signals transmitted on different REs can be received without causing interference to each other.
- RE Resource Element
- a physical channel is a channel defined on the physical layer for transmitting modulation symbols obtained by modulating one or more coded bit sequences.
- OFDMA Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access
- a plurality of physical channels can be transmitted depending on the usage of the information sequence or the receiver.
- the transmitter and the receiver determine REs on which a physical channel is transmitted, which is a process referred to as mapping.
- the LTE and LTE-A systems are the representative systems, which adopt OFDM in downlink and Single Carrier-Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) in uplink.
- SC-FDMA Single Carrier-Frequency Division Multiple Access
- FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a control channel structure of a subframe for use in the LTE system, and to which the present invention is applied.
- the subframe is configured to support backward compatibility in the LTE system.
- an entire downlink bandwidth 101 is divided into a plurality of Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) 102 and, as a basic unit of resource allocation, each PRB 102 consists of 12 tones in frequency domain and 14 or 12 OFDM symbols in time domain.
- Each subframe 103 spans 1ms and consists of a first slot 104 and a second slot 105.
- a Reference signal is a signal transmitted by the eNB for the UE’s channel estimation, and is categorized into one of a CRS and a DRS.
- a CRS 107 is transmitted through antenna ports 0 and 1 of the eNB having two transmit antennas and antenna ports 0, 1, 2, and 3 of the eNB having four transmit antennas. If the number of antenna ports is more than 1, this means that multi-antenna scheme is adopted.
- the absolute position of the PRB is configured differently depending on the cell while maintaining a relative distance between PRBs. Specifically, the RS is transmitted at an interval of 6 PRBs per antenna port. The absolute position of the PRB is configured differently for the cells to avoid RS collision among cells. The number of RSs differs according to the antenna port.
- a total of 8 RSs exist in a single PRB or subframe, while for the antenna ports 2 and 3, a total of 4 RSs exist in a single PRB or subframe.
- the CRS is configured in order for all UEs to receive the CRS and thus the same pattern is applied to all of the PRBs across entire downlink bandwidth 101.
- the DRS is transmitted through multiple ports like the CRS. However, although it depends on the configuration scheme, the LTE system uses two ports and two scrambling codes. In LTE-A system, it is possible to use four ports and two scrambling codes.
- the DRS is transmitted in data regions 108 and 109 of a specific PRB to a specific UE, but not across the entire downlink bandwidth 101.
- control channel signal of LTE is arranged at the beginning of a subframe in time domain.
- control region 110 is the region in which the control channel signal is transmitted.
- the control channel signal may be transmitted on L consecutive OFDM symbols at the beginning of the subframe.
- L can be set to 1, 2, or 3.
- L can be used as the basic information for allocated control channel resource demapping in a control channel reception operation such that, if L is received, it is impossible to recover the control channel.
- the control channel signal is located at the beginning of the subframe so that the UE may determine whether to perform a data channel reception operation depending on the presence of the data channel signal addressed to the current UE. If there is no data channel signal addressed to the UE, it is not necessary for the UE to attempt data channel decoding, thereby saving power consumption required for data channel reception. Also, by receiving the control channel at the beginning of the subframe prior to the data channel, it is possible to reduce scheduling delay.
- a Physical Downlink Control CHannel is a physical channel for transmitting a common control channel and a dedicated control channel including, for example, data channel allocation information, allocation information for system information transmission or power control information.
- the PDCCH can be configured with different channel coding rates, depending on the channel state of the UE. Since the Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is fixedly used for PDCCH transmission, it is necessary to change the resource amount in order to change the channel coding rate.
- QPSK Quadrature Phase Shift Keying
- a UE operating in a good channel condition uses a high channel coding rate to reduce the resource amount.
- a UE operating in a bad channel condition uses a low channel coding rate although it requires a greater resource amount.
- the resource amount for each PDCCH is determined depending on the unit of a Control Channel Element (CCE).
- CCE consists of a plurality of Resource Element Groups (REGs) 111.
- the REG 105 of the PDCCH is interleaved to guarantee diversity and distribute inter-cell interference.
- the REG 105 is allocated in the control channel region of the PRBs 102 across the entire bandwidth as denoted by reference numbers 105 and 106 in FIG. 1.
- Interleaving is performed to all of the REGs of the subframe that are determined by L.
- the output of the control channel interleaving is designed to space the REGs of the control channel, allocated across one or more symbols, far enough to acquire diversity gain while avoiding inter-cell interference caused by the use of the same interleaver for the cells. Also, it guarantees uniform distribution of the REGs constituting the same channel across the per-channel symbols.
- eNBs which are different in size
- This deployment increases interference per unit square such that the PDCCH designed for preventing inter-cell interface fail to mitigate interference and is influenced by more interference from neighbor cells, resulting in a reduction of UE coverage.
- an eNB adopting the MU-MIMO technique for scheduling more UEs and maximizing the system throughout lacks the control channel amount while having an adequate data channel amount, resulting in a scheduling failure.
- a control channel is transmitted using a dedicated reference signal on the legacy data channel.
- control channel capacity When transmitting a control channel on the data channel, it is possible to avoid inter-cell interference and utilize the dedicated reference signal. As a consequence, multiple antennas can be used to transmit the control channel for multiple UEs on the same resource, resulting in maximization of control channel capacity.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of control channels for use in the LTE system, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the LTE control channel is divided into a common control channel region 201 and a dedicated control channel region 207.
- the common control region 201 is the region in which control channel demodulation is always attempted.
- the dedicated control channel region 207 is divided into UE-specific parts in which control channel demodulation is attempted by respective UEs.
- a CCE 202 is a unit for transmitting the control channel.
- the common control channel region 201 is composed of 16 CCEs, while the remaining CCEs are used for the dedicated control channel region 207.
- the control channel is not fixed in code rate, and its information amount to the resource is determined using a unit referred to as an aggregation level.
- the available aggregation levels are 4 and 8 for the common reference signal and 1, 2, 4, and 8 for the dedicated reference signal.
- the unit of aggregation is the CCE 202.
- a blind demodulation zone 203 in provided in the common control channel region 201 according to the aggregation level.
- 4 blind demodulation zones 203 can be transmitted.
- 2 blind demodulation zones 204 can be transmitted.
- the eNB can transmit the common control channel using 6 blind demodulation zones.
- the number of decoding iterations differs according to the aggregation level.
- 6 blind demodulation zones are possible, as denoted by reference numbers 208 and 209, respectively.
- Blind demodulation can be performed to the same or different CCEs, according to the aggregation level, as shown in Table 1 below.
- the CCEs to be used are determined according to Equation (1), in which L denotes an aggregation level and N CC,K denotes the total number of CCEs of k th subframe.
- a CCE index for blind demodulation is derived from Equation (1).
- Y k denotes a random variable for distributing user-specific control channels across the entire control channel region to avoid collision among the control channels, and changes at every subframe by Equation (2). However, for common control channel, Y k is set to 0 in order for all of the UEs to receive the signals in the same regions.
- the start of the Y k is a UE ID, A is 39827, and D is 65537.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a control channel structure of a subframe designed to carry the dedicated reference signal, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- a downlink bandwidth is shown in FIG. 3, having a first PRB 301, a second PRB 302, and a third PRB 303.
- a first subframe 306 is divided into a first slot 307 and a second slot 308.
- a control region 304 includes the first three REs of the first slot 307 in the first PRB 301.
- a dedicated reference signal 309 is transmitted in the data channel region, as shown in FIG. 3, where only the first slot 307 is depicted with the dedicated signal.
- the dedicated control channel can be transmitted as some symbols in the time domain, or some slots or entire PRBs.
- the dedicated reference signal should be transmitted at specific PRBs in the frequency domain.
- FIG. 3 is depicted under the assumption that the dedicated control channel is transmitted at the first slot 307 of the first PRB 301. Since, in the legacy LTE system, the control channel reception is configured only in the PDCCH region, it is impossible to receive the control channel using the dedicated reference signal as shown in FIG. 3. Accordingly, there is a need to configure a control channel region for supporting control channel receipt using the dedicated reference signal.
- FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating the control channel region with a dedicated control channel carrying a dedicated reference signal for used in the system, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the control channel includes a common control channel region 401, a dedicated control channel region 402 with a CRS, and a dedicated control channel region with a DRS 403.
- the dedicated control channel with the CRS is referred to as the first control channel
- the dedicated control channel with DRS is referred to as the second control channel.
- the terms ‘control channel region’ and ‘control channel resource’ are used interchangeably
- the legacy UE uses the resources denoted by reference numbers 404 and 405 as the control channel region with the CRS, which relates to the use of the common control channel and the dedicated control channel with the CRS.
- the UE that is capable of using the dedicated control channel with the DRS uses the control channel region including the resources denoted by reference numbers 404, 406, and 407, which relates to the use of the common control channel, the dedicated control channel with the CRS, and dedicated control channel with the DRS.
- the control channel region that is actually to be used is determined by L*M (L) .
- the regions 404 and 405 use the conventional value.
- the configuration of the control channel region 404 in embodiments of the present invention is the same as the conventional one, the dedicated control channel region with the CRS is reduced as much as L(M (L )-N (L) ) because the dedicated control channel region with DRS increases as much as L*N (L) .
- the system is capable of adjusting the dedicated control channel region using the control channel region N (L) with the DRS.
- Embodiments of the present invention incorporate a method for determining N (L) and a method for indicating N (L ).
- the method for determining and indicating N (L) determines N (L) based on information such as control channelPRB resource region for DRS transmission, a maximum number of DRS ports, a Scrambling Code IDentifier (SCID) used by the DRS, and an available control channel size (number of bits). Specifically, the size of the dedicated control channel region with the DRS is determined according to the number of PRBs used for the dedicated control channel for the DRS, the number of DRS ports, and the number of bits of the control channel available in blind demodulation.
- the eNB may transmit, to the UE, the control information as described above, through higher layer signaling, such as Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling.
- RRC Radio Resource Control
- the eNB when the eNB provides the UE with the information on all of the control channel PRB resource region for DRS transmission, the maximum number of available DRS ports, the CSID used for DRS, and the number of bits of the control channel; it is possible to match the decrease of the control channel region with the CRS to the increase of the control channel region with the DRS.
- the control channel region with the CRS and the control channel region with the DRS increase/decrease at different ratios.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a control channel structure, according to an embodiment of the present invention. A description is made of the control channel structure according to an embodiment of the present invention in view of the physical resource.
- Reference number 501 denotes a logical region on which the common control channel is transmitted in the logical transmission region of the control channel transmitted with CRS.
- Reference number 502 denotes division of control channel region in unit of CCE.
- the common control channel is composed of total 16 CCEs, and the rest CCEs are used as dedicated control channel region.
- the control channel has no specific code rate, and the rate of information amount to resource is determined in unit of aggregation level (hereinafter, the same is applied).
- the common reference signal is available with the aggregation levels 4 and 8 while the dedicated control channel is available with the aggregation levels 1, 2, 4, and 8.
- the unit of aggregation is CCE.
- Reference number 503 denotes a blind demodulation region according to the aggregation level in the common dedicated control channel region.
- total 4 regions can be used as denoted by reference number 503 (505), while total 2 regions can be used for the available 8 as denoted by reference number 504 (506). Accordingly, the eNB can transmit the common control channel across total 6 regions.
- Reference number 507 denotes the logical region carrying the UE-specific control channel in the logical transmission region of the control channel transmitted with CRS.
- the control channel maintains the same size as the conventional control channel region, while configuring the control channel region with the DRS in a new time/frequency resource region 512.
- the resource region 512 is a dedicated control region with the dedicated channel reference signal. All of the UEs receive signals on the common control channel region as in the conventional system, however regions 508, 509, 510, and 511 are reduced as much as the increased control channel region, as denoted by reference number 514.
- the control channel region with the CRS has two control channel bits available without use of the DRS port and the SCID, and since this differs from the control channel region with the DRS, the increase in the number of CCEs in one control channel region with the DRS does not mean a decrease in the number of CCEs in one control channel region with the CRS. Accordingly, there is a need to adjust the control channel region according to a given system configuration.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a method for configuring a control channel, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for matching the decrease of the control channel region with the CRS to the increase of the control channel region with the DRS.
- the eNB sends the UE a PRB index and an SCID for the control channel region with the DRS through higher layer signaling (e.g., RRC signaling). If the SCID is not transmitted, the UE has to perform blind demodulation to acquire the SCID. If the SCID is transmitted to the UE through higher layer signaling, it is possible to avoid an increase in the number of blind demodulations.
- the maximum number of common reference signals for the DRS is limited to 2.
- the maximum number of reference signals available for the UE is notified through higher layer signaling. The system limits the blind demodulation of the UE to the size of one control channel.
- Table 2 shows the control channel region with the CRS when the control channel for the DRS is configured. The entire region decreases from L*M (L) to L*(M (L) -N (L) ).
- the dedicated control channel for the DRS can be expressed as shown in Table 3 below.
- Equation (1) which expresses the search space
- Equation (4) shown below.
- N CCe,k can be expressed as , and refers to the basic unit of control channel demodulation.
- Y k is set to 0. Since the control channel for the DRS is provided to the UE through higher layer signaling, there is no need to protect collisions between UEs.
- this embodiment of the present invention provides a method for maintaining the total number of demodulation operations to be equal to the case of the control channel for the CRS. Specifically, this embodiment of the present invention configures the control channel for the DRS so as to limit the number of DRS ports to 2 and the number of bits of the control channel to 1. This results in a reduction in the number of demodulation operations, along with a further reduction by transmitting SCID through higher layer signaling. Thus, it is possible to match the control channel to the physical resource one by one, so as to maintain the total size of the control channel resource region to be equal to that of the conventional control channel resource region per UE.
- the UE when 5 PRBs 607 of the control channel for the DRS are allocated at aggregation level 1 601, the UE performs demodulation on the 5 control channel resources at the resource region for the DRS with the exception of the conventional control channel for the CRS, which is reduced to 1 as denoted by reference number 605, while the resource region for the DRS is set to 5 as denoted by reference number 606.
- the convention resource region for the CRS is reduced to 4 as denoted by reference number 608, while the resource region for the DRS is set to 2 as denoted by reference number 609.
- the conventional region is reduced to 3 as denoted by reference number 611, while the control region for the DRS is set to 1 as denoted by reference number 612.
- the control channel of size of 8 cannot be transmitted such that there is no reduction of the conventional resource region with the CRS. Accordingly, it is possible to use both the control channel region for the CRS and the control channel region for the DRS without increasing of the number of demodulation operations at the legacy UE.
- Reference number 610 denotes the logical resource of the control channel transmitted with DMRS at aggregation level 2
- reference number 613 is the logical resource of the control channel transmitted with DMRS at aggregation level 4.
- Reference number 614 denotes the value obtained by deducing the available control channel candidates from the total control channel candidates using DMRS (accordingly, 2 is the number of control channel candidates transmittable with CRS).
- Reference number 615 denotes that the number of DMRS control channel candidates using aggregation level 8 is 0 in the exemplary case of FIG. 6.
- FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a method for configuring the control channel for the CRS and the control channel for the DRS at an asymmetric ratio by applying a weight to the control channel for the DRS depending on the UE characteristics, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- control channel for the DRS can multiplex 8 users with up to 4 DRS ports and 2 SCIDs, and have two or more control channel format sizes. Accordingly, the number of blind demodulations is determined by Equation (5) below.
- Number of blind demodulations (maximum number of DRS ports) x (number of DRS control channel formats) ...(5)
- the number of blind demodulation for the CRS is determined by Equation (6) below.
- Number of blind demodulations (number of CRS control channel formats)
- N (L) can be defined as shown in Equation (8) below.
- FIG. 7 shows an embodiment in which the maximum number of DRS ports is 2, the number of SCIDs is 2, and the number of control channel formats is 1.
- ⁇ becomes 2 such that the control channel region for the CRS is changed to the control region for the DRS as denoted by reference number 706, at aggregation level 1 701.
- reference number 705 denotes the value obtained by deducing the available control channel candidates from the entire control channel candidates using DMRS (accordingly, 0 is the number of control channel candidates transmittable with CRS).
- the size of the control channel for the DRS becomes 4 as denoted by reference number 710, resulting in two physical resources. However the total number of available blind demodulations becomes 4, and thus, a conventional CRS control channel region 707 decreases to 2.
- the control channel for the DRS is configured as denoted by reference numbers 711 and 712, such that the control channel regions for the CRS are reduced as denoted by reference numbers 708 and 709.
- this embodiment of the present invention provides a method for adjusting the relative ratio between the control channel for the CRS and the control channel for the DRS, according to the system environment of the UE using the DRS.
