Method and apparatus for multiplexing control and data channel

摘要

An approach is provided for performing control signaling. Data and control information are received. The control information is orthogonalized using block-level spreading. The data and the orthogonalized control information are multiplexed at a symbol-level.

1. A method for transmitting control information from a transmitter, the method comprising:
receiving control information, wherein the control information comprises data-non-associated Layer 1/Layer 2 (L1/L2) control signaling; spreading, at a block level, the control information with an orthogonal sequence to provide a plurality of orthogonalized control channels; generating a pilot signal used for demodulation; and time-domain multiplexing, at the symbol level, the pilot and the plurality of orthogonalized control channels.
