The block of bits shall be scrambled with a UE-specific scrambling sequence, resulting in a block of scrambled bits
according to
where the scrambling sequence is given by clause 7.2. The scrambling sequence generator shall be initialised with
at the start of each subframe where
is the C-RNTI.
The block of scrambled bits shall be QPSK modulated as described in Clause 7.1, resulting in a block of complex-valued modulation symbols
where
.
The block of complex-valued symbols is divided into
sets, each corresponding to one SC-FDMA symbol. Transform precoding shall be applied according to
where ,
and
are given by Table 5.4.2C-1 for normal PUCCH format 4 and shortened PUCCH format 4, resulting in a block of complex-valued symbols
. The variable
, where
represents the bandwidth of the PUCCH format 4 in terms of resource blocks, shall fulfil
where is a set of non-negative integers.
