Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for indicating a modulation coding scheme (MCS) in LTE are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive downlink control information (DCI) from an evolved Node B (eNB) that includes an uplink grant of resources. The DCI may be configured and have a format that conveys an MCS table reference. The UE may identify the MCS table reference and, based on the reference, identify a legacy MCS table or a non-legacy MCS table. The legacy MCS table may be associated with quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) up to a first order, and the non-legacy MCS table may be associated with QAM up to a second order, the second order being higher than the first order. The UE may modulate and code information for uplink transmissions using the identified MCS table.

Claim (Index 16):
An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:\n a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; and instructions executable by the processor to:\n determine, by a user equipment (UE), a search space of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) for receiving downlink control information (DCI); \n receive the DCI comprising an uplink (UL) grant of resources for the UE, the DCI having a DCI format and configured to convey a modulation coding scheme (MCS) table reference; \n identify an MCS table from a plurality of MCS tables based at least in part on the MCS table reference conveyed in the DCI; \n determine a modulation order for the UL transmissions based at least in part on the search space of the PDCCH for receiving the DCI and the identified MCS table; and \n send one or more UL transmissions according to the determined modulation order.
