Method for transmitting VoIP packet
View Patent ↗A method for transmitting a voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) packet includes allocating a radio resource for VoIP packet transmission to a user, transitioning a VoIP service from a talk period, in which the VoIP packet is transmitted using the radio resource, to a silence period in which the VoIP packet is not transmitted, releasing the radio resource during the silence period, and transitioning the VoIP service to the talk period by reallocating the radio resource. Limited radio resources can be further effectively used.
1. A method of controlling a scheduling scheme, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and comprising:
receiving first scheduling information including a first resource assignment and a first new data indicator (NDI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) from a base station (BS);
if the first scheduling information masked with a persistent Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI) associated with a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) includes the first NDI indicating a first value, activating the SPS for a downlink data packet to be delivered to the UE with the first resource assignment;
receiving second scheduling information including a second resource assignment on the PDCCH from the BS, the second scheduling information being masked with the persistent C-RNTI associated with the SPS; and
if the second scheduling information includes a second NDI indicating a second value, using the second scheduling information for a retransmission downlink data packet with the second resource assignment.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the first NDI and the second NDI indicates 1-bit information.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first scheduling information further includes redundancy version information.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first value is 0, and the second value is set to 1.
5. A user equipment (UE) controlling a scheduling scheme comprising:
a processor configured for:
receiving first scheduling information including a first resource assignment and a first new data indicator (NDI) on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) from a base station (BS);
if the first scheduling information masked with a persistent Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier (C-RNTI) associated with a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) includes the first NDI indicating a first value, activating the SPS for a downlink data packet to be delivered to the UE with the first resource assignment;
receiving second scheduling information including a second resource assignment on the PDCCH from the BS, the second scheduling information being masked with the persistent C-RNTI associated with the SPS; and
if the second scheduling information includes a second NDI indicating a second value, using the second scheduling information for a retransmission downlink data packet with the second resource assignment.
6. The user equipment of claim 5 , wherein each of the first NDI and the second NDI indicates 1-bit information.
7. The user equipment of claim 5 , wherein the first scheduling information further includes redundancy version (RV) information.
8. The user equipment of claim 5 , wherein the first value is 0, and the second value is 1.
