Low overhead subband physical downlink control for communication systems

Abstract:

An apparatus is configured to be employed within a base station. The apparatus comprises baseband circuitry which includes a radio frequency (RF) interface and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to obtain channel information and data information for a user equipment (UE) device, determine control information for the UE device based on the obtained channel information and data information, generate a channel format for the determined control information and having varied subband sizes, and provide the channel format to the RF interface for a downlink transmission to the UE device.is configured to be employed within a base station.
