HARQ RS error report header Fujitsu Problem The HARQ RS error report header is defined in section IEEE802.16j/D1. However, the current HARQ RS error report header can report the status of only first 14 HARQ sub-bursts. This contribution proposes the modification of this header to cover the status of all HARQ sub-bursts. Proposed Remedy To cover the status of all HARQ sub-bursts, the sub-burst offset which indicates the location of HARQ subburst is added in the current header and the length of DL HARQ ACK Bitmap is reduced. 1 IEEE C802.16j-07/557 Specification changes Type = 1(1) EC = 1(1) HT = 1(1) [Modify Figure 35e and Table 19e] Extended Type = 2 (3) Frame Number LSB (4) DL HARQ ACK Bitmap MSB Sub-burst Offset (6) DL HARQ ACK Bitmap LSB (8) CID MSB (8) CID LSB (8) HCS (8) Figure 35e – HARQ RS error report header format Table 19e – Description of fields in HARQ RS error report header Name DL HARQ ACK/NAK bitmap Length (bit) 14 8 Frame Number 4 Sub-burst offset 6 CID HCS 16 8 Description RS transmits ACK/NAK Bitmap of DL HARQ data of previous frame. The order of Bitmap from MSB to LSB follows the order of DL HARQ sub-burst Least significant 4 bits of frame number where the DL HARQ burst is received by the RS Indicates the number of DL HARQ sub-burst from the first DL HARQ sub-burst on Frame indicated by Frame Number.
