Abstract

Le mode de réalisation de la présente invention concerne un procédé d'émission et de réception d'informations de commande et un appareil associé. Ledit procédé d'émission comprend les étapes suivantes : pour tout équipement d'utilisateur dans l'ensemble d'équipements d'utilisateur, une station de base détermine, sur la base d'un ensemble 2 de ressources physiques assigné à l'équipement d'utilisateur, un sous-ensemble de ressources physiques correspondant à un ou plusieurs canaux de contrôle de liaison descendante candidats ayant une classe d'agrégation L de l'équipement d'utilisateur parmi de multiples sous-ensembles de ressources physiques compris dans un ensemble 1 de ressources physiques ; la ressource physique comprise dans chaque sous-ensemble de ressources physiques peut contenir un canal de contrôle de liaison descendante candidat ayant une classe d'agrégation L, l'ensemble 2 de ressources physiques étant un sous-ensemble de l'ensemble 1 de ressources physiques ; dans un sous-ensemble de ressources physiques déterminé, des informations de commande contenues dans le canal de commande de liaison descendante ayant la classe d'agrégation L sont envoyées à l'équipement d'utilisateur. Le mode de réalisation de la présente invention diminue la probabilité de conflits de localisation de ressources dans les mappages de canaux de contrôle de liaison descendante candidats de différents équipements d'utilisateur.
