A method is disclosed for PHICH resource allocation in a wireless communication system that supports flexible TDD UL-DL configuration and in which different TDD UL-DL configurations are available and the TDD UL-DL configuration used by first UEs which operate according to the flexible TDD configuration can be different to the TDD UL-DL configuration used by second UEs which operate according to a long term TDD UL-DL configuration. The method comprising allocating a PHICH resource for both first UEs and second UEs according to LTE timing rules applicable to the TDD UL-DL configuration in use by second UEs.

One embodiment of the present invention is a method for performing channel access using a first station (STA) in a wireless communication system, comprising: a step of receiving a traffic indication map (TIM) bitmap; and a step of attempting channel access for a wireless medium in a first time period indicated by the first TIM bitmap. The first STA attempts channel access for the wireless medium in a third time period which is one of the second time periods indicated by the TIM bitmap in the event that the first STA senses an operation of a second STA relating to the wireless medium in the first time period.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a control information sending method, receiving method, and device. The control information sending method includes: determining a first subframe of a first radio frame on a first carrier, where the first subframe includes a control region; sending control information in the control region of the first subframe of the first radio frame to a user equipment, where the control information includes a PDCCH; and sending an ePDCCH in a second subframe of the first radio frame to the user equipment. According to the embodiments of the present invention, when control information borne on an ePDCCH cannot be sent in a first radio frame, a PDCCH can still be sent to a user equipment through a control region in a first subframe, thereby achieving purposes of performing uplink/downlink scheduling for the user equipment and downlink feedback for uplink data of the user equipment.

A communication method and system in an Ad-Hoc network using a RR-ALOHA based protocol are provided. The method may include: receiving a data frame which includes N slots, where N is a positive integer greater than two, where a slot includes a payload and a frame information field, where a frame information field includes N sub-frame information fields which correspond to the N slots, respectively, where a sub-frame information field includes a source temporary identifier field for indicating which node occupies its corresponding slot; and if a source temporary identifier field contained in the received data frame equals to a first predetermined value representing the status of free, determining that a corresponding slot is free and can be reserved. By using the method of the disclosure, communication efficiency is improved.

The present invention is designed to feed back feedback signals such as delivery acknowledgement signals properly even when the DL/UL configuration is reconfigured in TDD. A user terminal communicates, in time division duplexing, with a radio base station that reconfigures the DL/UL configuration, and has a judging section that judges a delivery acknowledgement in response to each DL subframe, and a feedback control section that allocates a delivery acknowledgement signal in response to each DL subframe to a UL subframe and sends feedback, and, when the number of DL subframes that correspond to a UL subframe is greater than a predetermined value in a radio frame after the reconfiguration of the DL/UL configuration, the feedback control section bundles at least part of the delivery acknowledgement signals for a plurality of DL subframes corresponding to the UL subframe, and sends feedback.

A transmission node in a wireless communication network includes a receiving unit for receiving a set of data packets transmitted from a set of nodes in the network scheduled in one TTI, a memory unit having a number of memory blocks, each for storing a set of data packets transmitted in a separate TTI of a HARQ process. Each memory block includes sub-memory blocks, each of which is for storing a data packet transmitted from a separate UE. The transmission node further includes a processor for allocating the set of data packets to the sub-memory blocks and releasing the sub-memory blocks after one HARQ process upon receipt of the set of data packets.

A technique capable of allowing a reception side to easily select components is provided. A transport stream in which a first transport packet including predetermined components and a second transport packet including signaling information related to the predetermined components are time-division multiplexed is transmitted via a predetermined transport path. Component selection information is inserted in the second transport packet. The component selection information includes information on a selective layer in which static selection is performed, information on a composite layer in which composition is performed, and information on an adaptive layer in which dynamic switching is performed, and these layers being arranged in that order from top to bottom. The acquisition destination information of a component which is a target of adaptive switching among the components selectable in the adaptive layer is information that designates specific information location of a metafile having data stream acquisition information for adaptive streaming.

A framer in a transmission device allocates plural optical channel time slots to a plurality of logical prioritized paths. It allocates received client signals to the allocated time slots, and transmits the client signals by a plurality of optical subcarriers that use a plurality of optical wavelengths corresponding to the plurality of time slots. The framer includes: a time slot allocation unit that, in a case where an optical wavelength corresponding to a time slot allocated to a logical path having a high transmission priority is not used, allocates at least one of the plurality of time slots to the logical path having the high transmission priority while the time slot corresponding to the unused optical wavelength is avoided, to change the time slot allocated to the logical path having the high transmission priority.

The present application relates to a method of a wireless device for interference cancellation (IC) in a cellular radio network system comprising a serving network node serving said wireless device. The method comprises using a first IC method for at least partly removing a time aligned symbol of an interfering radio signal from at least a first symbol of a time slot received from the serving network node. The method also comprises using a second IC method, different from the first IC method, for at least partly removing a non-time aligned symbol of an interfering radio signal from at least a second symbol of said time slot received from the serving network node.

Apparatus and methods for improving a coverage of an uplink Voice over IP (VoIP) transmission of a wireless device are disclosed. A wireless device assigns a first hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) process to a first VoIP packet of the wireless device. The wireless device then assigns a second HARQ process to a second VoIP packet of the wireless device. The wireless device then transmits the first and second VoIP packets to a base station.
