Abstract:
Embodiments herein include a method in a user equipment (UE) for transmitting uplink control information in time slots of a subframe over a radio channel to a radio base station. The uplink control information is comprised in a block of bits. The UE maps the block of bits to a sequence of complex valued modulation symbols. The UE block spreads the sequence across Discrete Fourier Transform Spread—Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFTS-OFDM) symbols. This is performed by applying a spreading sequence to the sequence of complex valued modulation symbols, to achieve a block spread sequence of complex valued modulation symbols. The UE further transforms the block-spread sequence, per DFTS-OFDM symbol. This is performed by applying a matrix that depends on a DFTS-OFDM symbol index and/or slot index to the block-spread sequence. The UE also transmits the block spread sequence, as transformed, over the radio channel to the radio base station.

Claim (Index 16):
A method in a terminal for transmitting uplink control information in a slot of a subframe over a channel to a base station in a wireless communication system, wherein the uplink control information is comprised in a block of bits, and wherein the method comprises:\n scrambling the block of bits in dependence on at least one of a Discrete Fourier Transform Spread\u2014Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (DFTS-OFDM) symbol index and a slot index; mapping the scrambled block of bits to a sequence of complex valued modulation symbols; block spreading the sequence of complex valued modulation symbols across DFTS-OFDM symbols by applying a spreading sequence to the sequence of complex valued modulation symbols, to obtain a block spread sequence of complex valued modulation symbols; Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) transforming the block spread sequence of complex valued modulation symbols in dependence on at least one of a DFTS-OFDM symbol index and a slot index; and transmitting the DFT transformed block spread sequence over the radio channel to the radio base station.
