パーシステントスケジューリングによってチャネル送信を制御するための方法

摘要

A method is provided for multiplexing control information with persistently scheduled data in a spectrally efficient operation. In particular, the invention operates to determine and send a power offset parameter in a message carrying a persistent data allocation from a base station to a corresponding mobile station. The power offsets are related to the control information being sent, and specify the amount by which the mobile should increase its transmit power level when multiplexing particular control information together with the persistent data. The increased transmit power then operates to maintain the required QoS on the data channel.
