Abstract

The present invention relates to resource allocation in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the method comprises: an encoding step in which a resource block or a resource block group generates a resource indication value (RIV) which is a transform of the length (L) and the offset (j) of a contiguous resource allocation region; and a transmission step in which the resource allocation information is transmitted to a terminal, wherein the resource allocation information is calculated by means of a prescribed mathematical equation.

Claims (380)

1. A transmitting apparatus comprising:

a encoder to generate resource allocation information (RIV) converted from the length of a resource allocation region L and an offset thereof j, wherein the resource allocation region consists of contiguous resource blocks or block groups; and

a transmitter to transmit the resource allocation information to a terminal,

wherein the resource allocation information is calculated by the formula below,

RIV

2. The transmitting apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the resource allocation information is transmitted through RRC (Radio Resource Control).

3. A method for allocating a resource, the method comprising:

generating resource allocation information (RIV) converted from the length of a resource allocation region L and an offset thereof j, wherein the resource allocation region consists of contiguous resource blocks or block groups; and

transmitting the resource allocation information to a terminal,

wherein the resource allocation information is calculated by the formula below,

5. A terminal comprising:

a receiver to receive resource allocation information (RIV) to which information about a resource allocation region is encoded, wherein the resource allocation region consists of contiguous resource blocks or block groups; and

a decoder to decode the resource allocation information so as to extract a length of a resource allocation region L and an offset thereof j,

wherein the resource allocation information is calculated by the formula below,

7. A method for receiving a resource allocation information, the method comprising:

receiving resource allocation information (RIV) to which information about a resource allocation region is encoded, wherein the resource allocation region consists of contiguous resource blocks or block groups; and

decoding the resource allocation information so as to extract a length of a resource allocation region L and an offset thereof j,

wherein the resource allocation information is calculated by the formula below,
