Abstract
A transceiver includes a receiver that receives and demodulates a first encoded block of data. The first encoded block of data includes a first redundancy version that corresponds to a first payload portion and a first header portion. The first encoded block of data is received from a communication device that is remote from the transceiver and that is in a cellular telecommunication network. A transmitter transmits an acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal that includes a dedicated decoding status indicator for the header portion.
Claims53
A transceiver comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive and demodulate a first encoded block of data that includes a first redundancy version corresponding to a first payload portion and a first header portion,
- wherein the first encoded block of data is received from a communication device that is remote from the transceiver and that is in a cellular telecommunication network, and
- a transmitter configured to transmit an acknowledgement (ACK) signal and a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal, wherein the NACK signal includes a dedicated decoding status indicator for the first header portion to indicate when the first header portion has not been decoded properly.
A transceiver comprising:
- a transmitter configured to modulate and transmit an encoded first block of data that includes a first redundancy version corresponding to a first payload portion and a first header portion to a communication device that is remote from the transceiver and in a cellular telecommunication network;
- and
- a receiver configured to receive an acknowledgement (ACK) signal and a negative acknowledgement (NACK) signal, wherein the NACK signal includes a dedicated decoding status indicator to indicate when the first header portion has not been decoded properly by the communication device.
A transceiver comprising:
- a demodulator configured to generate a demodulated signal based on an encoded block of data that includes a header portion and a payload portion and that is received from a communication device that is remote from the transceiver and in a cellular telecommunication network;
- a decoder configured to generate a decoded signal based on the demodulated signal;
- and
- a control module configured to control generation and transmission of a header status signal to the communication device at least partially based on decoding of the header portion, wherein the header status signal includes a dedicated decoding status indicator of the header portion, and wherein the dedicated decoding status indicator indicates when the header portion has not been decoded properly.
A transceiver comprising:
- an encoder that is configured to generate an encoded signal based on a block of data that includes a payload portion and a first header portion;
- a modulator that is configured to generate a modulated signal based on the encoded signal;
- a transmitter that is configured to transmit the modulated signal to a network communication device that is remote from the transceiver and in a cellular telecommunications network;
- and
- a control module that is configured to control reception of a header status signal from the network communication device at least partially based on the modulated signal, wherein the header status signal includes a dedicated decoding status indicator of the first header portion, and wherein the dedicated decoding status indicator indicates when the first header portion has not been decoded properly.
