`essential to the work of 3GPP.
`
`
`
`
`
`The attention of the members of this Technical Specification Group is drawn to the fact that 3GPP
`Individual Members have the obligation under the IPR Policies of their respective Organizational Partners
`to inform their respective Organizational Partners of Essential IPRs they become aware of.
`
`The members take note that they are hereby invited:
`
`
`
`
`
`to investigate in their company whether their company does own IPRs which are, or are likely to become
`Essential in respect of the work of the Technical Specification Group.
`
`to notify the Director-General, or the Chairman of their respective Organizational Partners, of all
`potential IPRs that their company may own, by means of the IPR Statement and the Licensing declaration
`forms (e.g. see the ETSI IPR forms http://webapp.etsi.org/Ipr/).

`
`
`
`
`a flexible MBSFN subframe allocation scheme using 3 bits
`the required signalling to inform the UEs about the MBSFN subframe allocation using a bitmap for the radio
`frames within the repetition period (i.e. 32 bits for a repetition period of 320 ms)

`
`Discussion/Decision
`
`
`
`The document was presented by Zhao Meng from Huawei and proposes a method for MBSFN subframe allocation
`signalling, having the following 4 basic features:
`
` To define a “modifying period of MBSFN subframe allocation” over which the allocation signalling information
`changes;
`
` Some frames contain MBSFN subframes while others do not;
`
` The distribution of MBSFN subframes in each MBSFN frame is the same;
`
` Node B broadcasts the MBSFN subframe allocation information via D-BCH.

`LS on uplink coverage for LTE
`
`RAN2, Ericsson
`

`
`On VoIP Uplink Coverage for LTE
`
`Ericsson
`
`
`
`The document was presented by Stefan Parkvall from Ericsson and provides link level results for VoIP considering current
`L2 protocol assumptions, especially L2 segmentation. The results show that L2 segmentation is inferior to retransmissions
`due to the high overhead introduced by L2 segmentation.

`
`On the Need for VoIP Coverage Enhancement for the E-UTRA
`UL
`The document was presented by Rainer Bachl from Alcatel-Lucent and illustrates that the current E-UTRA UL HARQ
`operation results in a VoIP coverage gap compared to UMTS CS voice as well as HSUPA Release 7 VoIP. The paper
`concludes that techniques which form a longer effective TTI length (such as a 4ms TTI) close the link budget gap with
`HSUPA.

`
`Multi-process transmission technique to improve UL coverage for
`LTE
`
`Alcatel-Lucent
`
`
`
`The document was presented by Rainer Bachl from Alcatel-Lucent and discusses possible solutions to improve uplink
`LTE coverage. As the basic idea is to form longer TTI length (but create significant impact to the current L1 agreements),
`the contribution proposes a mechanism known as “multi-process” transmission which effectively forms a larger TTI length
`by allowing autonomous retransmission in consecutive subframes using consecutive HARQ processes.
`
`Discussion (Question / Comment):
`Decision: Document is noted.
`
`As a conclusion, Mr Chairman suggested to come –up with some drafting of the reply LS to RAN2 in R1-080532. This
`should indicate that a solution to the UL coverage should be introduced…

`
`Conclusions:
`
`PRBS for Unicast
`
` The time-domain period of the sequences is one frame (1-to-1 mapping with the sub-frame number).
`
` The sequences are first mapped in the frequency-domain.
`
` The sequences are defined for 110 PRBs. For smaller transmission BW, only the RS within that BW are
`transmitted (and, together with (b), no BW knowledge required from the UEs to know the RS).
`
` The same sequences are used for antenna ports 0, 1, 2, and 3 with only half the sequence elements used for
`antenna ports 2 and 3.
