FALSE DETECTION REDUCTION DURING MULTI-CARRIER OPERATION

摘要

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate reducing false detections of control channels during blind decode when multiple component carriers are configured. A UE can perform blind detection of control channels on a plurality of carriers, wherein each control channel detected can be validated to reduce false detections. In one aspect, a reference carrier can be selected, wherein one or more detected control channels are validated so long as one detected control channel is on the reference carrier. In another aspect, control channel can be bundled such that multiple control channel detections are required for validation. Moreover, dummy control channels can be introduced that provide UE with guidance during blind decoding, as well as provide validation of detections. Further, various combinations of a reference carrier, bundling, and/or a dummy control channel can be utilized.
