EPDCCH RESOURCE AND QUASI-CO-LOCATION MANAGEMENT IN LTE

摘要

A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. In an aspect, the apparatus may determine whether a starting symbol of an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) is an initial symbol in a subframe based on an EPDCCH configuration. Based on the determination, the apparatus may refrain from decoding a subset of legacy control channels in the subframe when the starting symbol of the EPDCCH is the initial symbol in the subframe. The legacy control channel may comprise at least one of a physical control format indicator channel (PCFICH), a physical hybrid-ARQ indicator channel (PHICH), or a combination thereof.

1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
determining whether a starting symbol of an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH) is an initial symbol in a subframe based on an EPDCCH configuration; and refraining from decoding a subset of legacy control channels in the subframe when the starting symbol of the EPDCCH is the initial symbol in the subframe.
