METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING UPLINK ACKNOWLEDGEMENT INFORMATION IN AN OFDMA COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
摘要
<p>A method and apparatus for transmitting uplink acknowledge information (ACK) in a communication system using an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) scheme. The method includes receiving a data bit for the uplink ACK; outputting codewords corresponding to the data bit; performing quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation on symbols for ACK vector indexes corresponding to the codewords for the received data bit; performing inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) on a transmission signal having subcarrier clusters to which the modulated transmission symbols are allocated; and transmitting the IFFT-processed transmission signal.</p>
