Hybrid apparatus using physical channels
First Claim
1. A user equipment comprising:
- an antenna, operatively coupled to a receiver, the antenna and the receiver configured to receive a first downlink signal;
wherein the first downlink signal includes a resource assignment having a first indication of a first resource of a plurality of resources and a number of resources of the plurality of resources;
wherein the plurality of resources are in a sequence;
wherein the downlink signal includes a second indication as to applying the resource assignment to a single time interval or to a plurality of time intervals;
wherein each time interval includes at least one time slot;
a controller, operatively coupled to the receiver, the controller configured to determine, based on the second indication, whether the resource assignment is for a single time interval or for a plurality of time intervals;
the receiver, the antenna and the controller further configured on a condition that the resource assignment is for a single time interval, to receive a second downlink signal in the first time interval in the first resource and in the number of consecutive resources in the sequence; and
the receiver, the antenna and the controller further configured on a condition that the resource assignment is for the plurality of time intervals, to receive a second downlink signal in each of the plurality of time intervals in the first resource and in the number of consecutive resources in the sequence.

Abstract
A user equipment (UE) may receive a first downlink signal, including a resource assignment having a first indication of a first resource of a plurality of resources and a number of resources of the plurality of resources in a sequence. The downlink signal may include a second indication as to applying the resource assignment to a single time interval or plurality of time intervals, which the UE may determine. The UE may receive a second downlink signal in the first time interval in the first resource and in the number of consecutive resources in the sequence on a condition that the resource assignment is for a single time interval, and a second downlink signal in each of the plurality of time intervals in the first resource and in the number of consecutive resources in the sequence on a condition that the resource assignment is for the plurality of time intervals.

7. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a user equipment, a first downlink signal;
wherein the first downlink signal includes a resource assignment having a first indication of a first resource of a plurality of resources and a number of resources of the plurality of resources;
wherein the plurality of resources are in a sequence;
wherein the downlink signal includes a second indication as to applying the resource assignment to a single time interval or to a plurality of time intervals;
wherein each time interval includes at least one time slot;determining, based on the second indication, whether the resource assignment is for a single time interval or for a plurality of time intervals; on a condition that the resource assignment is for a single time interval, receiving a second downlink signal, by the user equipment, in the single time interval in the first resource and in the number of consecutive resources in the sequence; and on a condition that the resource assignment is for the plurality of time intervals, receive, by the user equipment, a second downlink signal in each of the plurality of time intervals in the first resource and in the number of consecutive resources in the sequence. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
