Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may determine an increased bandwidth configuration for an enhanced physical uplink control channel (ePUCCH) based at least in part on an ePUCCH format of the ePUCCH, wherein the increased bandwidth configuration uses a plurality of contiguous resource blocks (RBs) for the ePUCCH; and transmit the ePUCCH using the increased bandwidth configuration. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims24
A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- receive configuration information indicating an enhanced physical uplink control channel (ePUCCH) format for an ePUCCH, wherein the ePUCCH is associated with an increased bandwidth configuration based at least in part on the ePUCCH format of the ePUCCH, wherein the increased bandwidth configuration uses a plurality of contiguous resource blocks (RBs) for the ePUCCH;
- and
- transmit the ePUCCH using the increased bandwidth configuration,
- wherein, based at least in part on the increased bandwidth configuration, the plurality of contiguous RBs are encoded using an extended sequence relative to a sequence specified by the ePUCCH format for the ePUCCH, and
- wherein the ePUCCH format is an ePUCCH Format 0 or an ePUCCH Format 1.
A base station for wireless communication, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
- transmit configuration information indicating an enhanced physical uplink control channel (ePUCCH) format for an ePUCCH, wherein the ePUCCH is associated with an increased bandwidth configuration based at least in part on the ePUCCH format of the ePUCCH, wherein the increased bandwidth configuration uses a plurality of contiguous resource blocks (RBs) for the ePUCCH;
- and
- receive the ePUCCH using the increased bandwidth configuration,
- wherein, based at least in part on the increased bandwidth configuration, the plurality of contiguous RBs are encoded using an extended sequence relative to a sequence specified by the ePUCCH format for the ePUCCH, and
- wherein the ePUCCH format is an ePUCCH Format 0 or an ePUCCH Format 1.
A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving configuration information indicating an enhanced physical uplink control channel (ePUCCH) format for an ePUCCH, wherein the ePUCCH is associated with an increased bandwidth configuration based at least in part on the ePUCCH format of the ePUCCH, wherein the increased bandwidth configuration uses a plurality of contiguous resource blocks (RBs) for the ePUCCH;
- and
- transmitting the ePUCCH using the increased bandwidth configuration,
- wherein, based at least in part on the increased bandwidth configuration, the plurality of contiguous RBs are encoded using an extended sequence relative to a sequence specified by the ePUCCH format for the ePUCCH, and
- wherein the ePUCCH format is an ePUCCH Format 0 or an ePUCCH Format 1.
A method of wireless communication performed by a base station, comprising:
