Abstract
A base station transmits a control message to a wireless device to configure first radio resources of a control channel. The first radio resources comprise one or more sets of resource blocks in a subset of subframes in a plurality of subframes. The control message indicates configuration of the subset of subframes in which the first radio resources of the control channel are configured. The base station transmits scheduling information on the control channel for data packets transmitted on a data channel. The base station transmits the data packets on the data channel according to the scheduling information.
Claims30
A base station comprising:
- a) one or more communication interfaces;
- b) one or more processors;
- and
- c) memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause said base station to:
- i) transmit, to a wireless device, a radio resource control (RRC) message configured to cause:
- (1) configuration of first radio resources of a control channel, said first radio resources comprising one or more sets of resource blocks in a subset of subframes in a plurality of subframes, said RRC message indicating:
- (a) a starting OFDM symbol of said control channel in said subset of subframes;
- and
- (b) said subset of subframes in which said first radio resources of said control channel are configured;
- and
- (2) second radio resources of a data channel to start from said starting OFDM symbol in said subset of subframes;
- ii) transmit scheduling information on said control channel in a subframe, said scheduling information being for a packet transmitted on said data channel;
- and
- iii) transmit said packet on said data channel in said subframe according to said scheduling information.

- and
- (2) said subset of subframes in which said first radio resources of said control channel are configured;
- and
- ii) second radio resources of a data channel to start from said starting OFDM symbol in said subset of subframes;
- b) transmitting scheduling information on said control channel in a subframe, said scheduling information being for a packet transmitted on said data channel;
- and
- c) transmitting said packet on said data channel in said subframe according to said scheduling information.

- and
- (b) said subset of subframes in which said first radio resources of said control channel are configured;
- and
- (2) second radio resources of a data channel to start from said starting OFDM symbol in said subset of subframes;
- ii) receive scheduling information on said control channel in a subframe, said scheduling information being for a packet transmitted on said data channel;
- and
- iii) receive said packet on said data channel in said subframe employing said scheduling information.
