Method and apparatus for a coordinated scheduling method to avoid multiplexing of control and data for power limited users in the LTE reverse link

摘要

A system and method for coordinated scheduling of a telecom device to avoid multiplexing of control signaling and data signaling is disclosed. The method includes defining a round trip time for signaling transmissions. The method further includes allocating the signal transmissions and signal retransmissions for uplink transmissions which are directed by a first scheduling mode and downlink transmissions which are directed by a second scheduling mode to take place in a subframe time position where control signaling transmissions are not being transmitted in subframes where data transmissions and retransmissions are being transmitted. This system and method are particularly useful for telecommunication devices in power limited situations.

1. A method of coordinated scheduling for a telecommunication device comprising:
scheduling uplink data transmissions, uplink data retransmissions and uplink control transmissions for subframe time positions by a first scheduling mode; and scheduling downlink data transmissions for subframe time positions by a second scheduling mode; where the uplink data transmissions, the uplink data retransmissions, and the uplink control transmissions are offset to take place in different subframe time positions; wherein said first scheduling mode is dynamic and said second scheduling mode is persistent.
