Method of signalling uplink information
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of signaling, comprising:
- forming an ordered set of uplink scheduling information messages, each uplink scheduling information message being formatted to contain a subset of content of any subsequent uplink scheduling information message, such that the order in the ordered set determines the content of each uplink scheduling information message relative to preceding and subsequent uplink scheduling information messages;
puncturing each uplink scheduling information message into a symbol of a downlink user data allocation; and
transmitting from a device to a user, the downlink user data allocation, the uplink scheduling information messages being sequentially transmitted as part of the downlink user data allocation.

Abstract
A method of signaling on a downlink, information regarding scheduling resources allocated in uplink, is provided, wherein the information is contained in an uplink scheduling information message, which is formatted to contain a subset of content of any subsequent uplink scheduling information message in an ordered set of message formats. Each uplink scheduling information message selected from the set is punctured into a symbol of a downlink user data allocation.

15. A method of decoding uplink scheduling information signaled on a downlink, comprising:
-
receiving at a device via a downlink, an ordered set of uplink scheduling information messages, each uplink scheduling information message being formatted to contain a subset of information content of any subsequent uplink scheduling information message in the ordered set; decoding a minimum information content which comprises hybrid automatic repeat request bits and cyclic redundancy check information, in a first-decoded scheduling information message and checking for uplink scheduling information by applying a cyclic redundancy check; and after decoding the minimum information content, decoding and checking each subsequent information message until all information messages in the set have been decoded and checked. - View Dependent Claims (16)
