Abstract

There is disclosed a method of operating a feedback radio node in a wireless communication network. The method includes transmitting feedback signaling to a signaling radio node based on a received control information message. The received control information message includes a range indication indicating a range of subject signalings the feedback signaling pertains to. The disclosure also pertains to related devices and methods.

Claims (25)

1 . A method of operating a feedback radio node in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:

transmitting feedback signaling to a signaling radio node based on a control information message received from the signaling radio node, the received control information message comprising a range indicator indicating a range of subject signalings pertaining to the feedback signaling, the control information message indicating a range of reception opportunities for scheduling assignments associated to the subject signalings; and

the control information message including an anchor downlink assignment indicator A, a lower assignment indicator M and an upper assignment indicator N, where A, M, and N are integers.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the control information message indicates a range of downlink assignment indicators associated to the subject signalings.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the control information message represents a scheduling grant scheduling resources for transmission by the feedback radio node.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the control information message schedules reception and transmission by the feedback radio node.

5 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the control information message indicates a search space or search space group.

6 . A feedback radio node for a wireless communication network, the feedback radio node configured to:

transmit feedback signaling to a signaling radio node based on a control information message received from the signaling radio node, the received control information message comprising a range indicator indicating a range of subject signalings pertaining to the feedback signaling, the control information message indicating a range of reception opportunities for scheduling assignments associated to the subject signalings; and

the control information message including an anchor downlink assignment indicator A, a lower assignment indicator M and an upper assignment indicator N, where A, M, and N are integers.

7 . The feedback radio node according to claim 6 , wherein the control information message indicates a range of downlink assignment indicators associated to the subject signalings.

8 . The feedback radio node according to claim 6 , wherein the control information message represents a scheduling grant scheduling resources for transmission by the feedback radio node.

9 . A method of operating a signaling radio node in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:

receiving feedback signaling from a feedback radio node, the feedback signaling pertaining to a range of subject signalings corresponding to range of subject signalings indicated to the feedback radio node with a control information message, the control information message indicating a range of reception opportunities for scheduling assignments associated to the subject signalings; and

the control information message including an anchor downlink assignment indicator A, a lower assignment indicator M and an upper assignment indicator N, where A, M, and N are integers.

10 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the control information message indicates a range of downlink assignment indicators associated to the subject signalings.

11 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the control information message represents a scheduling grant scheduling resources for transmission by the feedback radio node.

12 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the control information message schedules reception and transmission by the feedback radio node.

13 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein the control information message indicates a search space or search space group.

14 . A signaling radio node for a wireless communication network, the signaling radio node configured to:

receive feedback signaling from a feedback radio node, the feedback signaling pertaining to a range of subject signalings corresponding to range of subject signalings indicated to the feedback radio node with a control information message, the control information message indicating a range of reception opportunities for scheduling assignments associated to the subject signalings; and

the control information message including an anchor downlink assignment indicator A, a lower assignment indicator M and an upper assignment indicator N, where A, M, and N are integers.

15 . A computer storage medium storing a computer program comprising instructions causing processing circuitry to one or both control and perform a method, the method comprising:

transmitting feedback signaling to a signaling radio node based on a control information message received from the signaling radio node, the received control information message comprising a range indicator indicating a range of subject signalings pertaining to the feedback signaling, the control information message indicating a range of reception opportunities for scheduling assignments associated to the subject signalings; and

the control information message including an anchor downlink assignment indicator A, a lower assignment indicator M and an upper assignment indicator N, where A, M, and N are integers.
