Abstract
Transmitting physical signals precoded at the physical layer, and transmitting via a physical channel precoded at the physical layer decoding information for use in physical layer decoding of said physical signals; wherein said decoding information is incorporated into one or more data units at a layer higher than the physical layer. Transmitting in a single sub-frame one or more physical reference signals for use in physical layer decoding of a physical channel in a plurality of sub-frames.
Claims28
A method comprising:
- transmitting physical signals precoded at a physical layer, and transmitting via a physical channel precoded at the physical layer decoding information for use in physical layer decoding of said physical signals;
- wherein said decoding information is incorporated into one or more data units at a layer higher than the physical layer.
A method comprising:
- transmitting in a single sub-frame one or more physical reference signals for use in physical layer decoding of a physical channel in a plurality of sub-frames.
An apparatus configured to:
- transmit physical signals precoded at a physical layer, and transmit via a physical channel precoded at the physical layer decoding information for use in physical layer decoding of said physical signals;
- wherein said decoding information is incorporated into one or more data units at a layer higher than the physical layer.
An apparatus comprising:
- a processor and memory including computer program code, wherein the memory and the computer program are configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus at least to transmit physical signals precoded at a physical layer, and transmit via a physical channel precoded at the physical layer decoding information for use in physical layer decoding of said physical signals;
- wherein said decoding information is incorporated into one or more data units at a layer higher than the physical layer.
