Abstract
A base station transmits a signal transmission to a mobile broadband (MBB) user equipment (UE) device and to a machine type communication (MTC) device that is in close proximity to the MBB UE device where the signal transmission includes control channel and a data channel. The control channel includes common location dependent control information that applies to the MTC device and the MBB UE device because they are at the same location.
Claims16
A method comprising:
- transmitting a transmission signal to a user equipment (UE) device and a machine type communication (MTC) device, the transmitting of the transmission signal comprising:
- transmitting a plurality of data time-frequency resources over a physical downlink data channel, the plurality of time-frequency resources comprising UE data time-frequency resources conveying UE data for the UE device and MTC data time-frequency resources conveying MTC data for the MTC device;
- and
- transmitting a plurality of control time-frequency resources over a physical downlink control channel the plurality of control time-frequency resources comprising common location dependent control information applying to reception of the UE data by the UE device and the MTC data by the MTC device.
