Combined layer 3 and downlink control information (DCI) signaling of virtual cell id
摘要
說明書
According to another aspect, a network node for determining a length of a virtual cell index field in downlink control information, DCI, is provided, where the virtual cell index field length for transmitting a virtual cell index to a wireless device is dynamically settable. The network node includes processing circuitry configured to determine a number of configured virtual cell identities, IDs. The processing circuitry is further configured such that, when a number of configured virtual cell IDs is greater than one, the processing circuitry selects a virtual cell index of a particular one of the virtual cells, and sets the virtual cell index field length based on the number of virtual cell IDs. The network node also includes a transmitter configured to transmit the selected virtual cell index in the virtual cell index field to the wireless device.
