CHANNEL INFORMATION OF A MOBILE STATION IN A MOBILE
COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to an apparatus and method for
transmitting channel information in a mobile communication system, and in
particular, to an apparatus and method for transmitting reverse channel
information in a mobile communication system.
2. Description of the Related Art
In general, a mobile communication system provides service to a plurality
of mobile stations using a scheduling method. The service includes voice and
data communication service. The term "scheduling" refers to a process of
granting a right to provide a service to a particular mobile station among a
plurality of mobile stations according to their priorities or other factors, and
determining data rates of services provided to the mobile stations. Because the
services are divided into voice and data, the scheduling is performed in different
ways for each. For voiceservice, the scheduling needs only the information on
channel and power resources available for the voice service. However, for data
communication or service, the scheduling needs more information because data
generally consumes more channel and power resources compared with the voice
service. Therefore, to provide data service, the channel state, location , and the
priority of a particular mobile station, etc. should be considered.
The data service can be divided into forward data transmission and
reverse data transmission according to its transmission direction. The "forward
data transmission" refers to data transmission from a base station to a mobile
station, and the "reverse data transmission" refers to data transmission from a
mobile station to a base station. The forward data transmission and the reverse
data transmission need different scheduling information. A description will now
be made of information necessary for the forward data transmission and
information necessary for the reverse data transmission.
Data transmission in a radio link is achieved through a packet data
channel on a per-physical layer packet (PLP) basis. In a system with scheduling,

a mobile station gets permission, or a grant, from a base station to transmit
packets in the reverse direction. In a particular system, a mobile station may
occasionally start reverse data transmission at a lowest possible data rate.
However, when the data rate is increased or decreased after the initial
transmission, the mobile station can transmit reverse data in response to a grant
from a base station, i.e., in response to a control signal from the base station
Therefore, the foregoing case in which initial transmission is possible at the
lowest data rate will not be considered herein. As described above, when mobile
stations want to transmit reverse data, a base station performs scheduling on the
mobile stations on a per-transmission time basis to grant or deny reverse packet
data transmission. The scheduling information is transmitted to mobile stations
by the base station. As a result, only the mobile station receiving the reverse
transmission grant from the base station transmits a reverse packet. Although a
physical channel over which the mobile station transmits packet data in response
to the reverse transmission grant can have different channel names according to
systems, it is generally called a "reverse packet data channel (R-PDCH)."
As described above, the base station performs scheduling collectively
considering channel conditions and mobile station conditions in a process of
granting/disapproving reverse data transmission of mobile stations. Therefore, a
scheduler of the base station should have a variety of state information for the
mobile stations. For example, the state information includes information on the
amount of transmission data stored in a buffer of each mobile station and a
reverse channel for each mobile station. Therefore, in a common mobile
communication system adopting the scheduling scheme, mobile stations should
report (or feed back) the scheduling information to the base station. Although a
reverse channel over which the mobile stations feed back the scheduling
information to the base station can have different channel names according to
systems, it is generally called a "reverse request channel (R-REQCH)."
Table 1 illustrates information transmitted over the R-REQCH in a
CDMA2000 Release D system, a North American version of a mobile
communication system, by way of example.



The information transmitted over the R-REQCH and the number of bits
of the corresponding information, illustrated in Table 1, are subject to change in
other systems. In any case, however, in a system adopting the scheduling, mobile
stations transmit the similar feedback information to a base station. A description
will now be made of the information fields illustrated in Table 1.
(1) RESERVED: A currently undefined bit, and can be used for various
purposes in the future.
(2) MAXIMUMTPR: Information on the reverse channel state of a
mobile station, and indicates the maximum TPR that a mobile station can use for
R-PDCH. The abbreviation "TPR" stands for a traffic-to-pilot ratio, and refers to
a ratio of transmission power of an R-PDCH to transmission power of a pilot
channel. In a general mobile communication system, power of mobile stations is
controlled by a base station. A description will now be made of a general reverse
power control process performed in a mobile communication system.
If a reverse channel of a mobile station is in a bad state, a base station
orders the mobile station to increase power of its pilot channel. In contrast, if the
reverse channel is in a good state, the base station orders the mobile station to
decrease power of its pilot channel. In this way, the base station maintains a
reception state of a reverse radio link. In other words, the base station maintains a
received reverse signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for each mobile station in a time-
varying reverse radio link. Therefore, it can be considered that a level of pilot
transmission power of a mobile station controlled at a particular time indicates a
channel state of the corresponding mobile station. For example, assuming that
there are a mobile station A and a mobile station B in communication with a base
station, if pilot transmission power of the mobile station A is higher than pilot
transmission power of the mobile station B at a specific time, it can be regarded
that a radio channel of the mobile station B is superior in channel state to a radio
channel of the mobile station A.
Commonly, mobile stations are limited in maximum transmission power.
For example, if maximum transmission power of a mobile station is limited to

200mW, it means that possible maximum transmission power of the mobile
station at a particular time should not exceed 200mW. In this situation where the
maximum transmission power is limited, if a pilot channel of a mobile station is
being power-controlled, power allocable to an R-PDCH by the mobile station at a
particular time is changed according to a power level of the pilot channel. That is,
it means that the power allocable to an R-PDCH is changed according to whether
the pilot channel of the mobile station is in a good state or a bad state. For
convenience, it will be assumed herein that physical channels transmitted by
mobile stations include only two types of channels: a pilot channel and an R-
PDCH. Actually, however, the physical channels transmitted by the mobile
stations can include other channels as well.
On this assumption, if a mobile station is being power-controlled by the
base station and power allocated to its pilot channel at a particular time is 50mW,
available power allocable to an R-PDCH becomes 200mW-50mW=150mW. In
this case, a ratio of maximum power allocable to the R-PDCH by the mobile
station to power of the pilot channel is 150mW/50mW=3. MAXIMUMTPR
refers to the ratio of maximum power allocable to the R-PDCH by the mobile
station to power of the pilot channel. The MAXIMUMTPR is commonly
expressed in dB. The mobile station feeds back information on its reverse channel
state by transmitting the MAXIMUM_TPR, i.e., the ratio of maximum power
allocable to the R-PDCH to power of the pilot channel, to the base station. Based
on the MAXIMUM_TPR received from the mobile station, the base station can
determine a reverse channel state of the mobile station, and can also determine a
maximum data rate allocable to the mobile station in a scheduling process.
(3) SRID: Is a service identifier corresponding to buffer information,
indicating the amount of data stored in a buffer, transmitted over an R-REQCH by
a mobile station. For example, assuming that a mobile station alternately
transmits a packet for a service A and a packet for a service B, if the amount of
data stored in a buffer of the mobile station for the service A and the amount of
data stored in a buffer for the service B at a particular time are 100 bytes and 300
bytes, respectively, then the mobile station sets the SR_ID to a value
corresponding to the service A and writes "100 bytes" in a field indicating the
amount of data stored in a buffer before transmission, when feeding back
information on the amount of data stored in a buffer for the service A. The service
identification information written in the SRID can be previously agreed upon
with the base station.

(4) EVENT: Indicates the amount of data stored in a buffer,
corresponding to the SR_ID.
As described above, in a mobile communication system, a mobile station
transmits its reverse channel state information and buffer information to a base
station over an R-REQCH, and the base station schedules reverse transmission
using the information received from the mobile station.
Table 2 illustrates MAXIMUMTPR field values and their associated
maximum TPRs in a mobile communication system, by way of example.

As can be understood from Table 2, in a CDMA2000 Release D system,
MAXIMUMTPR is expressed using 4 bits. Referring to Table 2, a mobile station
transmits '0000' if a TPR value available for an R-PDCH is less than 4 dB,
transmits '0001' if the TPR value falls within a range between 4 dB and 5 dB, and
transmits '0010' if the TPR value falls within a range between 5 dB and 6 dB. In

this way, the MAXIMUM_TPR values are expressed at 1-dB intervals between
'0000' and '1010'. In addition, MAXIMUM_TPR='1011' indicates a range
between 14 dB and 16 dB, MAXIMUM_TPR='1100' indicates a range between
16 dB and 18 dB, and MAXIMUM_TPR=' 1101' indicates a range between 18 dB
and 20 dB, Furthermore, MAXIMUM_TPR='1110' indicates a range between 20
dB and 24 dB, and MAXIMUM_TPR=' 1111' indicates a TPR value larger than or
equal to 24 dB. In the foregoing case where the TPR value available for an R-
PDCH of a mobile station is expressed with 4 bits, TPR values smaller 14 dB are
expressed at 1-dB intervals, and TPR values larger than 14 dB are expressed at 2-
dB intervals. In addition, TPR values larger than 20 dB are expressed at 4-dB
intervals.
Next, with reference to Table 3, a description will be made of TPR values
according to encoder packet (EP) sizes used for an R-PDCH in the CDMA2000
Release D system.

Table 3 illustrates examples of TPR values used for an R-PDCH in the
CDMA2000 Release D system. The phrase "TPR values used for an R-PDCH"
refers to TPR values specified to be used for respective packet data rates. For
example, in Table 3, a TPR value corresponding to an encoder packet size of 192
is 0.75 dB. When Table 3 is used, a mobile station transmits reverse packets using
a frame having a fixed 10-ms length. As a result, encoder packets having 192 bits,
408 bits, ..., and 15384 bits are transmitted for a 10-ms frame. Therefore, their
data rates become 19.2 Kbps, 40.8 Kbps, •••, and 1.5384 Mbps, respectively. That

a TPR value for EP size=192 is 0.75 dB indicates that a TPR value, i.e., a ratio of
R-PDCH power to pilot power, used for transmission of 19.2-Kbps packet data by
a mobile station is 0.75 dB.
It can be understood from Table 3 that the EP size increases
approximately on a double basis from 192 bits to 3096 bits, and increases
approximately on a one-and-a-half-times basis at 3096 bits or more. This is
because the increase in EP size on a double basis at a large-EP size range reduces
a resolution of distribution of the EP sizes. For this reason, the TPR value
corresponding to the EP size increases at about 3-dB intervals from 192 bits to
3096 bits, and increases at less-than-2-dB intervals at 3096 bits or more.
Table 2 and Table 3 show the opposite resolution tendencies. That is, in
Table 2, TPR values available for an R-PDCH of a mobile station, feedbacked
over an R-REQCH, are densely arranged at their smaller values and sparsely
arranged at their larger values. In Table 3, TPR values corresponding to EP sizes
are sparsely arranged at about 3-dB intervals at their smaller values and densely
arranged at their larger values.
Table 4 illustrates a combination of Table 2 and Table 3, i.e., a relation
between MAXIMUMTPR field values, their associated maximum TPRs, and EP
sizes.



In Table 4, the third column represents EP sizes corresponding to TPR
ranges indicated by MAXIMUM_TPR values feedbacked over an R-REQCH.
Now, with reference to Table 4, a description will be made of TPR values and
their associated EP sizes. MAXIMUM_TPR='1101' on the R-REQCH indicates
that a TPR value available for an R-PDCH by a mobile station ranges falls within
a range between 18 dB to 20 dB. EP sizes falling within the foregoing range
include 12312 and 15384 in Table 3. If a mobile station transmits a
MAXIMUM_TPR value to a base station in the foregoing method, the base
station performs scheduling using the feedback information received from the
mobile station. In some cases, however, the feedback information includes two or
more EP sizes as described above. In this case, the base station cannot correctly
determine whether an EP size supportable by the mobile station is 12312 or
15384, causing a possible failure in scheduling. The failure in scheduling reduces
the entire transmission throughput of a mobile communication system.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
The above and ether objects, features and advantages of the present
invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description
when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a transmitter for transmitting a
MAXIMUMTPR value over an R-REQCH in a mobile station according to an
embodiment of the present invention; and
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a mobile station for transmitting a
MAXIMUM_TPR value according to an embodiment of the present invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
A preferred embodiment of the present invention will now be described in
detail with reference to the annexed drawings. In the following description, a
detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein
has been omitted for conciseness.

A method for feeding back reverse channel information, i.e., a
MAXIMUM_T PR value, of a mobile station, proposed in the present invention,
follows three principles.
First, the present invention follows a resolution tendency of EP sizes in a
quantization process of MAXIMUM_TPR. For example, when the EP sizes and
their associated TPR values illustrated in Table 3 are provided, the present
invention quantizes MAXIMUM_TPR such that the tendency of Table 3 should
be satisfied. Referring to Table 3, because EP sizes and their associated TPR
values are arranged at about 3-dB intervals within a small-EP size range and
arranged at about 2-dB intervals within a large-EP size range, MAXIMUM_TPR
is also sparsely quantized at a small-TPR value range and densely quantized at a
large-TPR value range, thereby matching its tendency to the tendencies of the EP
sizes and their associated TPR values, defined in Table 3.
Second, in the present invention, a TPR value indicated by a
MAXIMUM_TPR field value fedback from a mobile station ranges between
adjacent TPR values for EP sizes, defined in Table 3. Referring to Table 3,
because a TPR value corresponding to EP size=12312 is 18 dB and a TPR value
corresponding to the next EP size= 15384 is 19.125 dB, a TPR value indicated by
a MAXIMUMTPR field value, for example, '1110', ranges between 18 dB and
19.125 dB. When a mobile station performing quantization in this manner feeds
back a MAXIMUM_TPR field value of '1110', a base station can determine that
a maximum EP size supportable by the mobile station is 12312.
Third, in the present invention, a TPR value indicated by a
MAXIMUMTPR field value fedback by a mobile station does not indicate a
maximum TPR value available for an R-PDCH, but indicates a maximum TPR
value supportable by the mobile station, including TPR values for an R-PDCH
and an R-SPICH. That is, a TPR value indicated by a MAXIMUM_TPR field
value proposed in the present invention is set such that it should become a
maximum supportable TPR on (R-PDCH + R-SPICH + R-PDCCH) of a mobile
station. This method is efficient especially when TPR values for the R-SPICH and
the R-PDCCH are variable according to EP size. Here, the R-SPICH is the
abbreviation for a reverse secondary pilot channel, and this channel is used by a
mobile station to transmit packets at a high data rate. The R-PDCCH is the
abbreviation for a reverse packet data control channel, and this channel is used to
transmit control information necessary for demodulation of an R-PDCH which is

transmitted together with the R-PDCCH.
The foregoing three principles proposed in the present invention may be
applied collectively or selectively.
Table 5 illustrates a preferred embodiment of the present invention, to
which the first proposed principle is applied.

Referring to Table 5, TPR is sparsely quantized at 2-dB intervals at a
small-TPR value range and densely quantized at 1-dB intervals at a large-TPR
value range, so that its tendency is matched to the tendencies of the EP sizes and
their associated TPR values, defined in Table 3.
Next, a description will be made of an embodiment of the present
invention, to which the second principle is applied. With reference to Table 6, a
description will be made of a method for transmitting MAXIMUM_TPR
according to the second principle proposed in the present invention.


In Table 6, 'ep_size[x]' in 'TPR[ep_size[x]]' represents a TPR value
corresponding to an EP size. That is, it means an xth EP size among successive EP
sizes, and represents a TPR value for the corresponding EP size. This value is in
accordance with Table 3 defining TPR values for EP sizes. In Table 6, ep_size[l],
ep_size[2], ep_size[3], ep_size[4], •••, and ep_size[10] represent 192, 408, 792,
1560, •••, and 15384, respectively, and can be an arrangement representing EP
sizes. For example, because TPR[ep_size[l]] in Table 6 corresponds to a first EP
size in Table 3, it becomes a TPR value corresponding to EP size=192. That is,
the TPR value is 0.75 dB. The reason why ' 1011' ~ ' 1111' are unused in Table 6 is
because the invention is applied to the CDMA2000 Release D system in which
the EP sizes are divided into 10 groups. For example, in a system where the EP
sizes are divided into 11 groups, '1010' represents 'TPR[ep_size[10]] TPR[ep_size[11]', and '1011' represent 'TPR[ep_size[11] Next, a description will be made of an embodiment of the present
invention, to which the third principle is applied. With reference to Table 7, a

description will be made of a method for mapping MAXIMUM_TPR according
to the third principle proposed in the present invention, and reporting the mapping
result to a base station.


Now, a description will be made of a structure of a transmitter for
transmitting a MAXIMUM_TPR value reported from a mobile station to a base
station over an R-REQCH according to an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a transmitter for transmitting a
MAXIMUM_TPR value over an R-REQCH in a mobile station according to an
embodiment of the present invention. The transmitter illustrated in FIG. 1 is
similar in structure to a general transmitter using a convolutional code. The
transmitter includes a controller 101, a frame quality indicator 102, an encoder
tail bit adder 103, a convolutional encoder 104, a block interleaver 105, and a
modulator 106.
In operation, 12-bit information output from the controller 101 is
provided to the frame quality indicator 102. The reason why the information is
comprised of 12 bits is because it is assumed herein that the information is
transmitted over an R-REQCH defined in Table 1. The number of bits constituting
the information is subject to change according to channel type. The information
includes MAXIMUM_TPR values defined in Table 5 to Table 7 according to an
embodiment of the present invention. That is, the 12-bit information includes
MAXIMUM_TPR values satisfying at least one of the 3 principles proposed in
the present invention.
The frame quality indicator 102 adds an error detection code, e.g., cyclic
redundancy check (CRC) code, to the 12-bit information, and outputs the CRC-
added information to the encoder tail bit adder 103. The encoder tail bit adder 103
adds encoder tail bits for convergence into a specific state to the input information,
and outputs the encoder tail-added information to the convolutional encoder 104.
The convolutional encoder 104 convolutional-encodes the encoder tail-added
information, and outputs the convolution-encoded information to the block
interleaver 105. The block interleaver 105 interleaves the convolution-encoded
information, and outputs the interleaved information to the modulator 106. The
modulator 106 modulates the interleaved information and transmits the modulated
information in the reverse direction.
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a mobile station for transmitting a
MAXIMUMTPR value according to an embodiment of the present invention.
With reference to FIG. 2, a description will now be made of a structure and
operation for transmitting a MAXIMUM_TPR value according to an embodiment

of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 2, a controller 211 is similar in structure to the
controller 101 of FIG. 1. The other elements 102 to 106 of FIG. 1 are included in a
transmitter 215. The transmitter 215 further includes a radio frequency (RF)
processor (not shown).
During initial communication, the mobile station receives a TPR table
defined in Table 5 to Table 7 over a signaling channel or a predetermined control
channel. Although the table can be previously stored in the mobile station, it will
be assumed herein that the table is transmitted from a base station to a mobile
station. Upon receiving the table defined in the present invention, a receiver 210
down-converts, demodulates and decodes the received table information, and
outputs the result to the controller 211. The controller 211 stores the received
table information in a TPR memory 212. The stored table can include the values
created in accordance with Table 5, Table 6, and/or Table 7.
In accordance with an alternative embodiment, the table described above
may be formed using any one or more of the three principles defined in the
present invention. If the table is generated in this way, it will change.
In a process of transmitting reverse data, the controller 211 detects the
amount of data stored in a transmission memory 214, and calculates a ratio of
traffic power available for reverse transmission. This ratio becomes a TPR value
as described previously. If the TPR value corresponds to any one of the TPR
values stored in the TPR memory 212, the controller 211 generates a message to
be transmitted over the R-REQCH illustrated in Table 1 using the corresponding
TPR value. The transmitter 215 transmits the generated message in the reverse
direction. In this manner, the mobile station can more correctly transmit
scheduling information to a base station.
As can be understood from the foregoing description, the mobile station
forms a MAXIMUMTPR table according to an embodiment of the present
invention, thereby transmitting more appropriate scheduling information in the
reverse direction. In this way, the entire efficiency of the system can be increased.
While the invention has been shown and described with reference to a
certain preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the

art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without
departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended
