Abstract  Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and an apparatus of wireless communications more specifically a method and an apparatus for implementing a dedicated control channel and using the dedicated control channel.

SOLUTION: Wireless terminals and base stations support multiple modes of dedicated control channel operation where different amounts of dedicated uplink resources for reporting control information are allocated to the wireless terminals. A set of dedicated control channel segments is utilized by the wireless terminals to communicate uplink control information reports to serving base station attachment points. Full tone and split-tone modes of dedicated control channel operation are supported. In the full tone mode each of the dedicated control channel segments associated with a single logical tone is allocated to a single wireless terminal. In the split tone mode dedicated control channel segments associated with a single logical tone are allocated between different wireless terminals.
