`PUCCH Transmission Scheme Assumptions
`for LTE-Advanced UE
`September 29 – October 3, 2008 / NTT DOCOMO, INC.
` In LTE-Advanced, PUCCH carries feedback signaling (CQI/PMI and
`ACK/NACK) for multiple assigned DL component carriers
` Investigate PUCCH transmission scheme for LTE-Advanced UE
`with wider Tx/Rx bandwidth capability
` Proposed scheme uses same PUCCH structure as that for Rel-8
`LTE
`• Basically, single-carrier transmission
`• 1 RB transmission bandwidth
`• Apply intra-subframe frequency hopping etc.

`
`PUCCH Transmission Scheme
`for LTE-Advanced UE (1)
`• Two major approaches -
`(cid:127) Approach 1: Reuse PUCCH transmission scheme in Rel-8 LTE
`• Require multi-carrier (resource) transmission to transmit control signals for
`multiple DL component carriers within TTI

`• Single-carrier transmission can be applied, although new DL/UL linkage is

`ACK/NACK feedback for LTE-Advanced UE with wider bandwidth
`(cid:127) Approach 1 ~ Straightforward scheme
`(cid:141) Pros
`✓ Reuse linkage from CCE index in Rel-8 LTE. Note that UL ACK/NACK
`resources are Ii nked to CCE index in Rel-8 L TE
`✓ No additional increase in overhead
`(cid:141) Cons
`✓ When multiple transport blocks (code words) are applied to DL
`component carriers, multi-carrier (resource) transmission is required
`to send multiple ACK/NACK bits within the same TTI
