Motivation
• This contribution proposes uplink control PHY structure for
tri-state HARQ feedback
• The feedback facilitates HARQ buffer management by three
states ACK/NACK/DROP
• The buffer management occurs for high throughput scenario
and each HARQ process will carry large HARQ burst
• Since larger burst applied in this scenario, we can apply more
resource for the tri-state HARQ feedback
1-bit HARQ feedback
• Four orthogonal sequences indexes ACK/NACK
• Each MS chooses one sequence from even numbered channel
or odd number numbered channel
• The MS sends the chosen sequence as the HARQ feedback

feedback with 3dB power
boosting
Conclusion
• The proposed tri-state HARQ feedback
provides better performance than 1-bit HARQ
feedback
• Nine-state HARQ feedback provide similar
performance to 1-bit HARQ feedback with
identical radio resource
• Recommend to adopt the proposed text #2 in
