Dynamic resource allocation, scheduling and signaling for variable data rate service in LTE
First Claim
1. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising:
- a receiver; and
a transmitter, whereinthe receiver is configured to receive layer 3 (L3) control information, wherein the L3 control information indicates, for an allocation of resources, at least a first frequency domain resource allocation, periodicity information, duration information, sequence information, and repetition information;
the transmitter is configured to periodically transmit, based on the periodicity information, uplink data according to the L3 control information;
the receiver is configured to receive layer 1/layer 2 (L1/L2) control information, after at least one uplink data transmission according to the L3 control information, wherein the L1/L2 control information indicates at least a second frequency domain resource allocation;
the transmitter is configured to transmit uplink data according to the L1/L2 control information; and
the transmitter is configured to transmit at least one uplink data transmission according to the L3 control information, after the transmission of the uplink data according to the L1/L2 control information.

Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for dynamic resource allocation, scheduling and signaling for variable data real time services (RTS) in long term evolution (LTE) systems. Preferably, changes in data rate for uplink RTS traffic are reported to an evolved Node B (eNB) by a UE using layer 1, 2 or 3 signaling. The eNB dynamically allocates physical resources in response to a change in data rate by adding or removing radio blocks currently assigned to the data flow, and the eNB signals the new resource assignment to the UE. In an alternate embodiment, tables stored at the eNB and the UE describe mappings of RTS data rates to physical resources under certain channel conditions, such that the UE uses the table to locally assign physical resources according to changes in UL data rates. Additionally, a method and apparatus for high level configuration of RTS data flows is also presented.
