Abstract

A method comprises: determining an uplink shared resource and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) that are of user equipment (UE); sending uplink data by using the uplink shared resource, wherein the uplink data comprises an identifier and the DM-RS that are of the UE; calculating an agreed feedback location, wherein the agreed feedback location is obtained according to a resource location of the uplink shared resource and the DM-RS; calculating an offset of the UE, wherein the offset of the UE is obtained according to the identifier of the UE; and receiving acknowledgement information (ACK) at a resource location of a downlink resource, wherein the resource location of the downlink resource is indicated by a combination of the agreed feedback location and the offset. According to the method, so that each UE is clear about whether the uplink data of the UE is successfully sent.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A base station, wherein the base station comprises a processor, a memory, and a transceiver, the memory is configured to store at least one instruction, and as configured, the instruction is executed by the processor;
 the processor is configured to allocate a same uplink shared resource and a same demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) to m user equipments (UEs), wherein m≥2;   the processor is further configured to control the transceiver to receive uplink data by using the DM-RS, wherein the uplink data comprises an identifier of UE, identifiers of different UEs represent the different UEs, and the UE represented by the identifier of the UE is at least one of the m UEs;   the processor is further configured to calculate an agreed feedback location, wherein the agreed feedback location is obtained according to a resource location of the uplink shared resource and the DM-RS;   the processor is further configured to calculate an offset of the UE, wherein the offset of the UE is obtained according to the identifier of the UE; and   the processor is further configured to control the transceiver to send acknowledgement information (ACK) at a resource location of a downlink resource, wherein the resource location of the downlink resource is indicated by a combination of the agreed feedback location and the offset.   
     
     
         2 . The base station according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the processor is configured to: perform a preset arithmetic operation on the identifier of the UE, and use a result of the preset arithmetic operation as the offset corresponding to the UE.   
     
     
         3 . The base station according to  claim 2 , wherein the resource location of the downlink resource satisfying the following formulas:
     n   PHICH   group =( I   PRB_RA   +n   DMRS )mod  N   PHICH   group   +I   PHICH   N   PHICH   group   +f ( C −RNTI), and
       n   PHICH   seq =(└ I   PRB_RA   /N   PHICH   group   ┘+n   DMRS )mod 2 N   SF   PHICH   +f ( C −RNTI), wherein
   n PHICH   group  is used to identify a group number of a group to which the downlink resource belongs on a physical HARQ indicator channel (PHICH); n PHICH   seq  is used to identify an orthogonal sequence number of the downlink resource in the group on the PHICH; n DMRS  is used to identify a DM-RS sequence that is last indicated by a physical downlink control channel PDCCH to the UE; N PHICH   group  is used to identify a quantity of groups on the PHICH; N SF   PHICH  is a spreading factor used for modulating the PHICH; and f(C−RNTI) is the offset corresponding to the UE, wherein

       n   PHICH   seq =(└ I   PRB_RA   /N   PHICH   group   ┘+n   DMRS )mod 2 N   SF   PHICH   +f ( C −RNTI), wherein
   n PHICH   group  is used to identify a group number of a group to which the downlink resource belongs on a physical HARQ indicator channel (PHICH); n PHICH   seq  is used to identify an orthogonal sequence number of the downlink resource in the group on the PHICH; n DMRS  is used to identify a DM-RS sequence that is last indicated by a physical downlink control channel PDCCH to the UE; N PHICH   group  is used to identify a quantity of groups on the PHICH; N SF   PHICH  is a spreading factor used for modulating the PHICH; and f(C−RNTI) is the offset corresponding to the UE, wherein
