<p>Downlink control information (DCI) extensions to support 3GPP Rel-10 functionalities comprise minimal extensions of DCI format 2B. In some embodiments, only two extra bits (20) are introduced to signal rank up to eight, by reusing the Scrambling Identity bit (16) while at the same time supporting different MU-MIMO dimensioning for the important cases of rank-1 and rank-2. This new DCI format can potentially support not only single cell downlink transmission but also some other Rel-10 functionalities, e.g. CoMP or relaying/HetNet.</p> |
