25.2123GPPMultiplexing and channel coding (FDD)Release 17TS

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

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 0 (see subclause 4.7.3E.1);

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas in any cell, and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 1 (see subclause 4.7.3E.2);

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas in any cell, and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 2 (see subclause 4.7.3E.3);

– when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas in any cell, and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 3 (see subclause 4.7.3E.4);

4.7.3E.1 Channel coding for HS-DPCCH when the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas and Secondary_Cell_Enabled is 0

Two forms of channel coding are used, one for the composite number of transport blocks preferred (NTBP), precoding control indication (PCI) and channel quality indication (CQI) and another for HARQ-ACK (acknowledgement).

4.7.3E.1.1 Channel coding for HS-DPCCH HARQ-ACK

The HARQ acknowledgement message to be transmitted, as defined in [4], shall be coded to 10 bits as shown in Table 15C.3B. The output is denoted g0, g1,…g9.

When three or four transport blocks are received, the second and the third transport blocks are positively acknowledged (ACK) only if both transport blocks are received correctly. Otherwise both the second and the third transport blocks are negatively acknowledged (NACK).

When four transport blocks are received, the first and the fourth transport blocks are positively acknowledged (ACK) only if both transport blocks are received correctly. Otherwise both the first and the fourth transport blocks are negatively acknowledged (NACK).

4.7.3E.1.2 Channel coding for HS-DPCCH composite number of transport blocks preferred, precoding control indication and channel quality indication

When the UE is configured in MIMO mode with four transmit antennas two types of CQI reports shall be supported by the UE. According to the definition of the CQI reporting procedure in [4], in type A CQI reporting the number of transport blocks preferred is up to four and in type B CQI reporting the number of transport blocks preferred is one.

4.7.3E.1.2.1 Bit mapping of Type A channel quality indication

In case a type A CQI shall be reported, the CQI values 0 … 255 as defined in [4] are converted from decimal to binary to map them to the channel quality indication bits (0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0) to (1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1), respectively. The channel quality indication bits are cqi0 , cqi1 , cqi2 , cqi3 , cqi4, cqi5, cqi6, cqi7 (where cqi0 is LSB and cqi7 is MSB).

In case the number of transport blocks preferred is one, the CQI values 0 … 30 as defined in [4] are converted from decimal to binary to map them to the channel quality indication bits (1 0 0 0 0) to (1 1 1 1 1), respectively. The information bit pattern (0 0 0 0 0) shall not be used in this release. The channel quality indication bits are cqi0, cqi1, cqi2, cqi3, cqi4 (where cqi0 is LSB and cqi4 is MSB) and (0 0 0) is used for indicating cqi5, cqi6, cqi7 (where cqi5 is LSB and cqi7 is MSB). .

According to the PCI definition in [4], the range of possible PCI values is 0 … 15. The PCI values 0 … 15 as defined in [4] are converted from decimal to binary to map them to the precoding control indication bits (0 0,0,0) to (1 1,1,1) respectively. The precoding control indication bits are pci0 , pci1,, pci2, pci3 (where pci0 is LSB and pci3 is MSB).
