Abstract:
Limited uplink bandwidth radio network devices ( 30 ) are supported on wide bandwidth uplink carriers by configuring and controlling the use of multiple control regions within the uplink carrier bandwidth. In some embodiments, the total bandwidth of the uplink carrier is divided into a plurality of sub-band portions, wherein at least one sub-band portion includes at least one control region nominally dedicated to the transmission of uplink control signaling. The control regions may be configured at one or both edges of sub-band portions, or elsewhere within a sub-band portions. Sub-band portions may share a control region. Radio network devices ( 30 ) are configured with a specified portion of the uplink carrier bandwidth for use for uplink transmission, which includes at least one control region. The specified portion may comprise an integer number of sub-band portions, or may span only part of one or more sub-band portions. Radio network devices ( 30 ) may be dynamically configured to allow or suppress data signaling in control regions.

Claim (Index 90):
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising program instructions which, when executed by processing circuitry of a radio network node operative in a wireless communication network, causes the node to perform the steps of:\n receiving uplink data from a radio network device over a specified portion of a full, continuous bandwidth of an uplink carrier; and receiving uplink control signaling from the radio network device in at least one control region within the specified portion.
