ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING PUCCH FORMAT 3 RESOURCES

Abstract:

A user equipment and a method for identifying a resource to use for a transmission of control information on a physical uplink control channel, PUCCH, format 3 involve receiving a resource index from a serving radio base station, and identifying the resource to use for the transmission of the control information in a subframe based on the received resource index, wherein the identified resource is within a same confined set of physical resource blocks regardless of if a normal or a shortened PUCCH format 3 is used in the subframe.
