1) Introduction
This contribution proposes text specifying the “Resource Allocation” field in Sections 15.3.6.5.2.2 (“DL Basic
Assignment A-MAP IE”), 15.3.6.5.2.3 (“UL Basic Assignment A-MAP IE”), 15.3.6.5.2.6.1 (“DL Individual PA
A-MAP IE”), 15.3.6.5.2.6.2 (“DL Composite Persistent A-MAP IE”), 15.3.6.5.2.7.1 (“UL Individual PA A-MAP
IE”) and 15.3.6.5.2.7.2 (“UL Composite PA A-MAP IE”) in [1].
Contribution C80216m-09_1328 summarizes the design of the RA field, and provides some motivation as well
as pointers to some supporting simulation results.
2) Proposed Text to be added to Section 15.3.6.5.2.2 (“DL Basic Assignment
A-MAP IE”)
The following text is proposed to be added starting on Line 3 on Page 201 in Section 15.3.6.5.2.2 of [1],
following the sentence on Line 2.
------------------------------------------------------ Begin proposed text ----------------------------------The structure and interpretation of the RA field shall be as defined below, for the cases of 5, 10 & 20 MHz.
Nominal Channel Bandwidth = 5 MHz
For a 5 MHz system:
1) All resource allocations shall be made using a single IE.
2) The “Resource Allocation” field shall be 8 bits long.
3) The 7 most-significant bits of the RA field will be referred to as the “Resource Allocation” (RA), while the
LSB of the RA field will be referred to as the “RA_Specifier”. The RA_Specifier aids in the interpretation
of the RA.
4) The AMS shall interpret the bits in the Resource Allocation field by performing the operations indicated in
Figure Figure_RA_1, and as further indicated in Table Table_RA_1.

All LRUs with floor( (LRU index)/N1 ) == j allocated
This LRU set is the allocation.
Position j in 6 bit field == 0 =>
None of the LRUs with floor( (LRU index)/N1 ) == j allocated
Figure Figure_RA_1: AMS interpretation rules for the Resource Allocation field for a 5 MHz system
Table Table_RA_1 maps the value of the RA to a set of contiguous LRU indices. The operation of Table_RA_1
may be illustrated by the resource indexing tree illustrated in Figure Figure_RA_2. Nodes in the tree are labeled
from top-to-bottom (lower level to higher level), and from left-to-right, as illustrated in Figure_RA_2. The
nodes at the bottom (highest) level of the tree correspond to the individual LRUs that may be allocated, with the
LRU indices starting from 0 on the left and proceeding to the right.
The decimal value of the 7-bit RA indexes a certain node in the tree. The indexed node then indicates the
allocation of all the nodes at the bottom level (Level 10) of the tree that branch from it, which translates to a set
of contiguous LRU indices.

For a 10 MHz system:

3) The 8 most-significant bits of the RA field will be referred to as the “Resource Allocation” (RA), while the

Table Table_RA_2 maps the value of the RA to a set of contiguous LRU indices. The operation of Table_RA_2
is similar to the operation of Table_RA_1 in the 5 MHz case, and the corresponding resource indexing tree is
illustrated in Figure Figure_RA_4.

In Table_RA_3, the decimal value of the RA bits increase from left to right, and then from top to bottom. The
shaded cells are not used to make interpretations. For a given value of the RA, the mapping using that value is
given by the indices of the two sub-bands as indicated in the “1st sub-band index” row and the “2nd sub-band
index” column. As an example, RA == 00001001 (Decimal value 9) maps to the pair of sub-bands indices {0,
11}. Then, as indicated in Figure_RA_3, the allocation is the set of (non-contiguous) LRUs such that
8

floor( (LRU index)/N1 ) == 0 or 11.
Table Table_RA_4 translates values of the 8-bit RA from 55 to 254 to triplets of non-contiguous sub-band
indices, which are then further translated to allocated (non-contiguous) LRU indices as indicated in
Figure_RA_3. This table is defined as follows.

In Table_RA_4, the RA values in the cells increase from left to right and then from top to bottom. The shaded
cells are not used to make interpretations. For a given RA value, the mapping using that value is given by the
indices of the three sub-bands – the two sub-bands as indicated in the “1st & 2nd sub-band indices” column and
the third sub-band as indicated in the “3rd sub-band index” row. As an example, RA == 1000010 (Decimal
value 66) maps to the triplet of sub-bands indices {0, 2, 5}. Then, as indicated in Figure_RA_3, the allocation is
the set of (non-contiguous) LRUs such that floor( (LRU index)/N1 ) == 0 or 2 or 5.

For a 20 MHz system:
1) All allocations of resources with contiguous LRU indices shall be made using a single IE. The allocation of

3) The 10 most-significant bits of the RA field will be referred to as the “Resource Allocation” (RA), while the

Figure Figure_RA_5, and as further indicated in Tables Table_RA_5, Table_RA_6 & Table_RA_7.

Table Table_RA_5 maps the value of the RA to a set of contiguous LRU indices. The operation of Table_RA_5
is similar to the operation of Table_RA_1 in the 5 MHz case, and the corresponding resource indexing tree is

Table Table_RA_6 maps the value of the 10-bit RA to a pair of non-contiguous sub-band indices, which are
then translated to a set of non-contiguous LRU indices as in Figure Figure_RA_5. This table is TBD.
Table Table_RA_7 translates values of the 10-bit RA to triplets of non-contiguous sub-band indices, which are
then further translated to allocated (non-contiguous) LRU indices as indicated in Figure_RA_5. This table is
TBD.
