Method carried out in a radio communications network for communicating with a user equipment having a resource bandwidth, comprising
- transmitting resource allocation information addressed to the user equipment,
- wherein said resource allocation information comprises an indication of frequency domain repetition,
- wherein said frequency domain repetition is associated with a predetermined mapping of repetitions involving scheduled repetitive transmission of physical data within radio resource units at different frequencies of a common subframe within said resource bandwidth, wherein
- an integer number of repetitive transmissions of a whole block of physical data, and a first portion of one further transmission of the block of physical data, is scheduled within a first subframe over the full frequency range of the resource bandwidth, and
- a second portion of the further transmission of the block of physical data is scheduled within a second subframe.
Network device for allocating and scheduling of radio resources for communication with a user equipment, comprising
- a processor;
- and
- a computer readable storage medium storing programming for execution by the processor, the programming including instructions to carry out the steps of:
- transmitting resource allocation information addressed to the user equipment,
- wherein said resource allocation information comprises an indication of frequency domain repetition,
- wherein said frequency domain repetition is associated with a predetermined mapping of repetitions involving scheduled repetitive transmission of physical data within radio resource units at different frequencies of a common subframe within said resource bandwidth, wherein
- an integer number of repetitive transmissions of a whole block of physical data, and a first portion of one further transmission of the block of physical data, is scheduled within a first subframe over the full frequency range of the resource bandwidth, and
- a second portion of the further transmission of the block of physical data is scheduled within a second subframe.
User equipment configured for radio communication with a radio communications network, comprising
- a radio receiver for receiving allocation and scheduling information from the radio network;
- a processor;
- and
- a computer readable storage medium storing programming for execution by the processor, the programming including instructions which, when executed, configure the radio receiver to retrieve data received in repeated transmissions from the radio network, in which a block of physical data is repeated in the frequency domain
- wherein said frequency domain repetition is associated with a predetermined mapping of repetitions involving scheduled repetitive transmission of physical data within radio resource units at different frequencies of a common subframe within said resource bandwidth,
- wherein the radio receiver is configured to retrieve
- an integer number of repetitive transmissions of a whole block of physical data, and a first portion of one further transmission of the block of physical data, scheduled within a first subframe over the full frequency range of the resource bandwidth, and
- a second portion of the further transmission of the block of physical data scheduled within a second subframe.
