Abstract:
A method for dynamic allocation of radio UL Physical Resource Block pairs of a plurality of subframes in a cell of an FDMA RAN. For each of the plurality of subframes, using a bandwidth layout in frequency domain for an UL bandwidth of the cell, in which the bandwidth layout has an inner region for a PUSCH positioned between outer regions for a PUCCH. For each of the outer regions, a PUCCH layout comprises an innermost section for PUCCH Format 1 and a middle section and an outermost section are PUCCH Formats 2 and 3. Depending on the traffic load of the cell, dynamically allocating, contiguously inwards, PRB pairs to Scheduling Requests in the outer regions and contiguously extending the inner region as allowed by the dynamic allocation of PRB pairs in the outer regions in each of the plurality of subframes.

Claim (Index 14):
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon a computer program comprising computer program code which, when executed on a processor circuitry of a Radio Access Network (RAN) node, cause for dynamic allocation of radio uplink (UL) Physical Resource Block (PRB) pairs of a plurality of subframes in a cell of a Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) by having the RAN node perform operations comprising:\n for each of the plurality of subframes, using a bandwidth layout in frequency domain for an UL bandwidth of the cell, which bandwidth is divided into a plurality of PRB pairs, in which bandwidth layout an inner region for a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) is positioned between outer regions for a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH); for each of the outer regions using a PUCCH layout, which PUCCH layout comprises a plurality of sections of which an innermost section is for PUCCH Format 1 and a middle section and an outermost section are for PUCCH Formats 2 and 3, wherein the innermost section comprises a plurality of parts of which an innermost part is for Scheduling Requests (SR); depending on a traffic load of the cell, dynamically allocating, contiguously inwards, PRB pairs to SRs in the outer regions in the plurality of subframes in accordance with the PUCCH layout; and contiguously extending the inner region as allowed by the dynamic allocation of PRB pairs in the outer regions in each of the plurality of subframes.
