SUBFRAME DEPENDENT PHYSICAL UPLINK CONTROL CHANNEL (PUCCH) REGION DESIGN

摘要

According to certain aspects, resources allocated to a user equipment (UE) for physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmissions may be determined in a subframe-type dependent manner. As a result, PUCCH regions for different subframes may vary based on the subframe types.

1. A method for allocating uplink resources in a wireless communications network, comprising:
determining an allocation of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources of a subframe for a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), wherein at least one of a location and a size of a region of PUCCH resources allocated for the subframe is dependent on a level of possibility of interference, wherein the level of possibility of interference comprises at least a first level in which transmissions in a first cell are protected by restricting transmissions in a second cell; and signaling the resource allocation to a user equipment (UE).
