Description

technical field

[0001] Embodiments discussed herein relate to control channel transmission methods and wireless communication devices. Background technique

[0002] LTE (Long Term Evolution) is being considered as a next-generation communication method for third-generation portable phones. In LTE, uplink control information is transmitted using a control channel called "PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel)". For example, ACK / NACK for downlink packet transmission, and CQI as downlink quality information are transmitted using the PUCCH.

[0003] Figure 6 is a diagram depicting one example of the frame format of PUCCH. A subframe of 1 ms is divided into two blocks, and each divided block consists of seven blocks (FFT blocks). For example, if Figure 6 As shown, the second and sixth blocks of each time slot include a reference signal (see eg TS36.211 V8.0). PUSCH (Physical Uplink Shared Channel) is a channel for transmitting data, and is allocated to each subframe of eac...

Embodiment Construction

[0026] Preferred embodiments of the present invention are explained with reference to the drawings. Figure 1A and Figure 1B are diagrams each depicting a configuration example of a transmission device 10 that transmits a control channel such as PUCCH and a reception device 20 that receives the control channel. The transmitting device 10 is a device on the transmitting side of the wireless communication device, and the receiving device 20 is a device on the receiving side of the wireless communication device. For example, the transmitting device 10 is a terminal device, and the receiving device 20 is a base station device.

[0027] The transmitting device 10 includes a ZC sequence generation unit 11, cyclic shift units 12-1 and 12-2, modulation units 13-1 and 13-2, subcarrier mapping units 14-1 and 14-2, IFFT units 15-1 and 15-2, CP adding units 16-1 and 16-2, and transmitting antennas 17-1 and 17-2.

[0028] On the other hand, receiving apparatus 20 includes receiving ant...
