SEPARATE RESOURCE PARTITIONING MANAGEMENT FOR UPLINK CONTROL AND UPLINK DATA SIGNALS

摘要

Transmission management is provided with separate resource partitioning management for control and data transmissions. An evolved node B (eNB) generates separate resource partition schedules for the transmission stream, in which a first schedule (703) is used for data transmissions while a second schedule (704) is used for control signal transmissions. The two separate schemes may have different periodicities or different subframe type assignments that benefit either data or control transmissions or that allow for coordination of both data and control. The eNBs may broadcast the different schedules in regular system information messages, in which the UEs served by these eNBs will configure data and control signal transmissions according to the appropriate resource partition schedules.
