individual Resource Unit (Resource Element is called for short RE), wherein N
symbrepresent the number of the OFDM symbol in 1 slot,
represent the number of Resource Block continuous subcarrier in frequency domain.RB is mapped in and on physical resource, is called Physical Resource Block (Physical Resource Block is called for short PRB).
(the Physical Uplink Control Channel of PUCCH in LTE system at present, Physical Uplink Control Channel) for loading ACK/NACK(Acknowledgement/NegativeAcknowledgement, confirmed/non-confirmed information), CQI(Channel Quality Indicator, channel quality instruction), SRI(Scheduling Requirement Indicator, dispatch request instruction) etc. information.The PUCCH of different-format, comprises for sending: SRI, uplink ACK/NACK, CQI feedback, or the different ascending control information such as CQI feedback+ACK/NACK, and as shown in the table, PUCCH has different-format as shown in the table:
Wherein, between different user, PUCCH format1/1a/1b's is multiplexing by frequency domainCDM(Code Division Multiplexing, code division multiple access) code(Zadoff-Chu cyclic shift, ZC cyclically shifted sequences) and time domain CDM code(orthogonal cover, orthogonal code) determine, by orthogonal code and CAZAC(Constant Amplitude Zero Auto Correlation, constant amplitude zero auto-correlation) the Cyclic Shift of sequence distinguishes different users; Between different user, PUCCH format2/2a/2b's is multiplexing by frequency domain CDM code(ZC cyclicshift) determine, distinguish different users by the Cyclic Shift of CAZAC sequence.
As shown in Figure 2, in LTE-A system, introduce relay(via node) increased afterwards new link: eNode-B(base station) and relay between link be called backhaul link(back haul link or repeated link), relay and UE(User Equipment, subscriber equipment) between link be called access link(access link), the link between eNode-B and UE is called the direct link(link that direct transfers).
