Abstract
To facilitate transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) on an uplink carrier of a telecommunication system, a shifted SRS is created, wherein a predefined frequency domain position of a SRS is shifted for creation of the shifted SRS, thereby creating an extended SRS region including at least one additional RB being separate from the predefined frequency domain position of the SRS.
Claims20
A method of facilitating transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) on an uplink carrier of a telecommunication system, comprising:
- creating a shifted SRS, wherein a set of SRSs is predefined, each SRS from the set of SRSs having a predefined bandwidth and a predefined frequency domain position, the predefined frequency domain position including a set of resource blocks (RBs) being usable for transmission of a SRS on the uplink carrier, the set of RBs being smaller than a total set of RBs being available on the uplink carrier, and the predefined frequency domain position of a first SRS from the set of SRSs is shifted for creation of the shifted SRS, thereby creating an extended SRS region including at least one additional RB being separate from the predefined frequency domain position of the first SRS;
- and
- transmitting the shifted SRS on the uplink carrier.
A method of facilitating transmission of a sounding reference signal (SRS) on an uplink carrier of a telecommunication system, comprising:
- providing a configuration instruction to an user equipment (UE) in the telecommunication system, the configuration instruction relating to creating a shifted SRS, wherein a set of SRSs is predefined, each SRS from the set of SRSs having a predefined bandwidth and a predefined frequency domain position, the predefined frequency domain position including a set of resource blocks (RBs) being usable for transmission of a SRS on the uplink carrier, the set of RBs being smaller than a total set of RBs being available on the uplink carrier, and the predefined frequency domain position of a first SRS from the set of SRSs is shifted for creation of the shifted SRS, thereby creating an extended SRS region including at least one additional RB being separate from the predefined frequency domain position of the first SRS;
- and
- receiving the shifted SRS on the uplink carrier.
A user equipment (UE), comprising:
- a shift creating entity, being arranged for creating a shifted SRS, wherein a set of SRSs is predefined, each SRS from the set of SRSs having a predefined bandwidth and a predefined frequency domain position, the predefined frequency domain position including a set of resource blocks (RBs) being usable for transmission of a SRS on a uplink carrier, the set of RBs being smaller than a total set of RBs being available on the uplink carrier, and the predefined frequency domain position of a first SRS from the set of SRSs is shifted for creation of the shifted SRS, thereby creating an extended SRS region including at least one additional RB being separate from the predefined frequency domain position of the first SRS;
- and
- a transmission entity, being arranged for transmitting the shifted SRS on the uplink carrier.
