COMMUNICATION DEVICE, METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING AN UPLINK TRANSMISSION CONTROL MESSAGE, METHOD FOR RECEIVING AN UPLINK TRANSMISSION CONTROL MESSAGE

摘要

In an embodiment, a communication device is provided. The communication device may include a scheduling message generating circuit configured to generate a scheduling message such that the scheduling message includes a receiving scheduling information specifying when to receive an uplink transmission control message, the receiving scheduling information being defined depending on a configuration of an uplink transmission channel, an uplink transmission control message generating circuit configured to generate an uplink transmission control message to control an uplink transmission from another communication device via the uplink transmission channel, and a transmitter circuit configured to transmit the uplink transmission control message in accordance with the receiving scheduling information such that the uplink transmission control message is transmitted via an uplink transmission control downlink channel.
