ENHANCED PHICH TRANSMISSION FOR LTE-ADVANCED

摘要

A method is provided for communication in a wireless telecommunication system. The method comprises generating a sequence of signals of an enhanced physical HARQ (hybrid automatic repeat request) indicator channel (E-PHICH). The method further comprises mapping the sequence of signals of the E-PHICH to a first set of resource elements, wherein the first set of resource elements is multiplexed with a second set of resource elements over a set of virtual resource blocks, and wherein the second set of resource elements carries at least one of an enhanced physical downlink control channel (E-PDCCH) and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
