The invention relates to a method, apparatus and system for configuring control channels in a mobile communication network and a mobile station. In order to suggest another improved scheme for configuring control channels, in particular control channels related to the transmission of user data the invention suggests aligning the size of the control channel information of different formats to an equal number of coded control channel information bits and/or modulation symbols for each control channel. The control channels may comprise scheduling related control information. According to another aspect of the invention, the size of the control channel information is aligned by means of modulation and/or coding, however the control channel information is aligned to one out of a set of numbers of coded control channel information bits and/or modulation symbols for each control channel.

A method includes a network device receiving a plurality of fragments of an Ethernet frame, where the plurality of fragments include an initial fragment and a first fragment, and where the initial fragment includes a destination media access control (MAC) address field. In response to an error occurring in the Ethernet frame, the first fragment is changed to a second fragment, where the second fragment includes second type indication information (TII) and second to-be-transmitted data (TBTD), where the second TII indicates that a type of the second TBTD is a control character, where a value of first TBTD is different from a value of the second TBTD, and where the second TBTD indicates that an error occurs in the Ethernet frame. The network device sends the second fragment to a destination device.

Systems and methods for efficient signaling Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) for an uplink data transmission are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of signaling HARQ-ACK feedback for an uplink data transmission sent from a wireless device to a radio network node comprises obtaining HARQ-ACK feedback for the uplink data transmission, encoding the obtained HARQ-ACK feedback on to an unused bit combination of a field in a downlink control channel, and transmitting the downlink control channel to the wireless device. Embodiments of the present disclosure enable wireless device power saving using positive HARQ-ACK feedback without increasing the static downlink control signaling overhead and without reducing coverage for downlink control information.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to methods for wireless communication. A transmitting device transmits a first portion of a control message to a receiving device. The first portion includes information for decoding a second portion of the control message and for decoding data. The transmitting device then transmits the second portion to the receiving device, the second portion including additional information for decoding the data. Thereafter, the first device transmits the data to the receiving device. The receiving device receives the first portion and the second portion, and decodes the received second portion based on the information included in the first portion. The receiving device then receives the data from the second device if the received second portion is able to be decoded. The receiving device decodes the received data based on the information included in the first portion and the additional information included in the second portion.

An electronic device including circuitry configured to perform control in a manner that a Physical Layer Convergence Protocol (PLCP) header format is selected from a plurality of PLCP header formats; and append the selected PLCP header to a physical layer packet for transmission.

There is provided a reception apparatus including a first acquisition unit which acquires, preceding text format second signaling data to be transmitted in a lower-level layer than an IP layer in a hierarchy of a protocol of an IP transmission system and containing control information independent of a service identified by an IP address, binary format first signaling data containing a flag indicating whether the second signaling data exists in digital broadcast using the IP transmission system, a second acquisition unit which acquires the second signaling data on the basis of the first signaling data, and a control unit which controls operation of the units which perform various types of processing on the basis of the second signaling data. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a television receiver.

A base station transmits a first downlink control information (DCI) portion in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), wherein the first DCI portion indicates a second DCI portion. The base station jointly encodes multiple component DCIs, each of the component DCIs providing a resource allocation in combination with the first DCI portion. The apparatus transmits the second DCI portion comprising the jointly encoded multiple component DCIs in a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).

Generating a channel state informal ion (CSI) feedback report is provided. A set of reference signals is received (1302). A plurality of entries that are included in the CSI feedback report are computed (1304), where the entries of the CSI feedback report include at leas: a set of coefficients (1306). Each coefficient is associated with at least one or more of a spatial domain basis index, frequency domain basis index, and a layer index (1308). The plurality of entries of the CSI feedback report are arranged (1310) in an order known to both the user equipment and the network entity. The plurality of entries of the CSI feedback report are prioritized using predefined permutations of the indices (1314).
