System and method for providing dynamic hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) codebook with multiple valid unicast downlink control information (DCI) per monitoring occasion index per serving cell
View Patent ↗A method and system for determining a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource are provided. The method includes ordering downlink control information (DCI) fields according to an order of serving cells for a monitoring occasion (MO), identifying a plurality of valid DCIs per MO per serving cell and determining the PUCCH resource from a last physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) in a last MO on the serving cell with a largest cell index.
1. A method of providing a type-2 hybrid automatic repeat request (HARD) codebook for multiple downlink control information (DCI), comprising:
configuring a user equipment (UE) with a number of valid DCI slots per monitoring occasion (MO) per scheduled cell; and
scheduling a plurality of valid DCIs per MO per the scheduled cell such that the UE transmits HARQ-Acknowledge (HARQ-ACK) bits of a number of physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs) in one physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), wherein the number of PDSCHs corresponds to a number of the plurality of valid DCIs,
wherein counter-downlink assignment indicator (C-DAI) values in the plurality of valid DCIs are ordered based on a likelihood measure determined from a cyclic shift value.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising ordering physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) corresponding to the plurality of valid DCIs according to an order of the C-DAI values.
3. A base station for providing a type-2 hybrid automatic repeat request (HARD) codebook for multiple downlink control information (DCI), comprising:
a transmitter; and
a controller configured to:
schedule a plurality of valid DCIs per monitoring occasion (MO) per a scheduled cell such that a user equipment (UE) transmits HARQ-Acknowledge (HARQ-ACK) bits of a number of physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs) in one physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), wherein the number of PDSCHs corresponds to a number of the plurality of valid DCIs;
configure the UE with a number of valid DCI slots per MO per scheduled cell; and
transmit the plurality of valid DCIs through the transmitter,
wherein counter-downlink assignment indicator (C-DAI) values in the plurality of valid DCIs are ordered based on a likelihood measure determined from a cyclic shift value.
4. The base station of claim 3 , wherein the controller is further configured to order physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) corresponding to the plurality of valid DCIs according to an order of the C-DAI values.
