Abstract
An enhanced data transmission operation is disclosed in which PDSCH and/or EPDCCH may be transmitted in the first symbol either with or without legacy control information multiplexed with the data transmissions. Base stations operating according to the various aspects may transmit indicators to related mobile devices that identify when such PDSCH/EPDCCH are transmitted in the first symbol period. UEs receive the multiplexed data transmissions and decode the appropriate PDSCH/EPDCCH transmissions along with any multiplexed legacy control information.
Claims30
A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- receiving a transmission from a base station at a mobile device;
- and
- decoding the transmission, wherein the transmission includes a data transmission in at least a first symbol of a subframe from a base station, wherein the first symbol is an initial subframe symbol at a beginning of the subframe, and the data transmission is multiplexed with legacy control transmissions in at least the first symbol.
A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- generating a transmission, wherein the transmission includes a subframe, a first portion of the subframe being allocated for legacy control information, the first portion including at least a first symbol, wherein the first symbol is an initial subframe symbol at a beginning of the subframe;
- multiplexing data in at least the first symbol, wherein the data does not include legacy control information;
- and
- sending the transmission from a base station to a mobile device.
An apparatus configured for wireless communication, the apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- a memory coupled to the at least one processor,
- wherein the at least one processor is configured:
- to receive a transmission from a base station at a mobile device;
- and
- to decode the transmission, wherein the transmission includes data transmission in at least a first symbol of a subframe from a base station, wherein the first symbol is an initial subframe symbol at a beginning of the subframe, and the data transmission is multiplexed with legacy control transmissions in at least the first symbol.
An apparatus configured for wireless communication, the apparatus comprising:
