  • Patent number: 9300455
    Abstract: A method of transmitting a sounding reference signal includes generating a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) carrying uplink control information on a subframe, the subframe comprising a plurality of SC-FDMA (single carrier-frequency division multiple access) symbols, wherein the uplink control information is punctured on one SC-FDMA symbol in the subframe, and transmitting simultaneously the uplink control information on the PUCCH and a sounding reference signal on the punctured SC-FDMA symbol. The uplink control information and the sounding reference signal can be simultaneously transmitted without affecting a single carrier characteristic.

  • Patent number: 9295035
    Abstract: A method and terminal apparatus are described for allocating resources for transmitting a signal in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system. An uplink signal is transmitted using L layers at a terminal in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication system. Modulation symbols are generated by modulating output bit sequences of an interleaver matrix by a unit of log2 Q bits. Q is a modulation order, and each of the output bit sequences has a size of L·log2 Q bits. The modulation symbols are mapped to the L layers and transmitted by using the L layers. The output bit sequences are generated by reading out entries of the interleaver matrix, column by column.
