Abstract:
A method includes allocating only a single PUCCH region in each subframe of multiple subframes to be used by UEs for uplink control information transmission. Information is signaled, where the information is defined to configure a UE that is equipped for machine type communication to be able to determine PUCCH regions to be used for uplink control information transmission for data received at the UE. The uplink control information is received, over the plurality of subframes, from the UE in the single PUCCH region per subframe. A UE that is configured for machine type communication receives the signaled information and determines, using the signaled information, a single PUCCH region to use for each subframe to transmit the uplink control information for received data and transmits, over the multiple subframes, the uplink control information from in the determined single PUCCH region per subframe. Apparatus, software, and computer program products are also disclosed.

Claim (Index 45):
A method, comprising:\n receiving, at a user equipment that is equipped for machine type communication, signaling comprising information defined to configure the user equipment to be able to determine physical uplink control channel regions to be used for transmitting uplink control information for received data, wherein only a single physical uplink control channel region is to be used to transmit the uplink control information in each subframe of a plurality of subframes; determining, using the signaled information, a single physical uplink control channel region to use for each subframe to transmit the uplink control information for received data; and transmitting, over the plurality of subframes, the uplink control information from the user equipment in the determined single physical uplink control channel region per subframe.
