ansmission with time-domain repetition, the BS sends this information element by decrementing the remaining repetition number by one in each transmission, i.e., if the BS sends the first transmission at the kth frame while signaling the remaining repetition number as n (n = 0, 1, 2, 3), the transmission CHAPTER 10 The IEEE 802. 16m Physical Layer (Part II) Table 10-15 Broadcast Assignment A-MAP IE Parameters [2] Parameter Size (Bits) Description A-MAP IE Type Broadcast A-MAP IE. Function Index 0 This IE carries broadcast assignment information; 1 This IE carriers ranging channel allocation information. Burst Size Burst size as indicated in the first 39 entries of Table 9-6. Resource Index Resource index includes location and allocation size: 5 MHz 0 in the 2 most significant bits + 9 bits for resource index; 10 MHz 11 bits for resource index; 20 MHz 11 bits for resource index. Long TTI Indicator Indicates number of subframes spanned by the allocated resource: ObO 1 subframe (default); 0b1 4 DL subframes for FDD or all DL subframes for TDD. Transmission Format Obo no time-domain repetition; 0b1 with time-domain repetition. Repetition Ob00 no more repetition of the same burst; 0b01 the same burst is transmitted one time; 0b10 the same burst is transmitted two times; Ob11 the same burst is transmitted three times. Number of Ranging Opportunities Subframe Index will be completed at the (k + n)th frame. The value of the repetition parameter is decremented in each transmission. For other information element's fields, only the resource index may change during the period when the time-domain repetition is performed. The HARQ sub-packet identifier is always set to zero for broadcast burst transmission. 10.3 UPLINK CONTROL CHANNELS Multiple types of control and signaling information are carried via uplink control channels in order to support various air interface procedures. The uplink control information is categorized into the following: Primary Fast-Feedback Channel; Secondary Fast-Feedback Channel; HARQ Feedback (ACK/N
