Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and apparatus are provided for multiplexing Uplink Control Information (UCI) with data information in a Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH) transmitted over multiple spatial layers where aspects of the UCI multiplexing include the determination of the number of coded UCI symbols in each spatial layer when the data information is conveyed using multiple Transport Blocks (TBs), the determination of the number of coded UCI symbols in each spatial layer when the PUSCH conveys a single TB retransmission for a Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) process while the initial TB transmission for the same HARQ process was in a PUSCH conveying multiple TBs, and the determination of the modulation scheme for the coded UCI symbols.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for transmitting Uplink Control Information (UCI) through a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), the method comprising: coding data bits and UCI bits, respectively; multiplexing the coded data bits and the coded UCI bits; and transmitting the multiplexed bits, wherein the PUSCH includes two Transport Blocks (TBs), and wherein a number of coded modulation symbols per layer of the UCI is determined based on a value related to a number of bi…
