4.7.1 Overview

25.2123GPPMultiplexing and channel coding (FDD)Release 17TS

Data arrives to the coding unit in form of indicators for measurement indication and HARQ acknowledgement.

The following coding/multiplexing steps can be identified:

– channel coding (see subclauses 4.7.2, 4.7.3, 4.7.3A, 4.7.3B, 4.7.3C, 4.7.3D and 4.7.3E);

– mapping to physical channels (see subclause 4.7.4).

The coding/multiplexing for HS-DPCCH is defined separately for the following cases:

– when the UE is not configured in MIMO mode and not configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas in the serving HS-DSCH cell, and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 0 or 1 and Secondary_Cell_Active is 0 (see subclause 4.7.2);

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode in the serving HS-DSCH cell and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 0 (see subclause 4.7.3);

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode in at least the serving HS-DSCH cell, and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 1 and Secondary_Cell_Active is 0 (see subclause 4.7.3B);

– when the UE is not configured in MIMO mode in any cell and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 1 and Secondary_Cell_Active is 1 (see subclause 4.7.3A);

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode in at least one cell and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 1 and Secondary_Cell_Active is 1 (see subclause 4.7.3B);

– when Secondary_Cell_Enabled is equal to 2 or 3 (see applicable subclauses in Table 14C and 14D)

– when Secondary_Cell_Enabled is more than 3 (see applicable subclauses in Table 14C.1 and 14D.1)

– when the UE is configured in Multiflow mode, see subclause 4.7.3D

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas at least in one cell, see subclause 4.7.3E

where Secondary_Cell_Enabled and Secondary_Cell_Active are defined in [4].

For each HS-DPCCH the general coding flow when the UE is not configured in MIMO mode and not configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas is shown in the figure 20. This is done in parallel for the HARQ-ACK and CQI as the flows are not directly multiplexed but are transmitted at different times.

Figure 20: Coding for each HS-DPCCH when the UE is not configured in MIMO mode and not configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas

In case the UE is configured in MIMO mode, the measurement indication consists of precoding control indication (PCI) and channel quality indication (CQI). For each HS-DPCCH the general coding flow when the UE is configured in MIMO mode is shown in the figure 20A. This is done in parallel for the flow of HARQ-ACK and for the flow of composite PCI/CQI reports as the two flows are not directly multiplexed but are transmitted at different times

Figure 20A: Coding for each HS-DPCCH when the UE is configured in MIMO mode

In case the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas, the measurement indication consists of number of transport blocks preferred (NTBP), precoding control indication (PCI) and channel quality indication (CQI). For each HS-DPCCH the general coding flow when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas is shown in the figure 20A.1. This is done in parallel for the flow of HARQ-ACK and for the flow of composite NTBP/PCI/CQI reports as the two flows are not directly multiplexed but are transmitted at different times
