PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) is a channel in cellular networks used for transmitting control information from the user equipment (UE) to the base station. It carries uplink control information such as acknowledgments, scheduling requests, and channel quality indicators.
What is Pucch and UCI or its format?
UCI (Uplink Control Information) refers to the information transmitted by the UE on the PUCCH channel. The format of UCI includes various types of control information, such as Hybrid ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest) acknowledgments, scheduling requests, and channel quality indicator reports. The format and structure of UCI depend on the specific network requirements and the signaling needs.
A PUCCH (Physical Uplink Control Channel) is a physical channel used in LTE and 5G networks for transmitting control information from the mobile device to the network. It carries essential control signals like scheduling requests, acknowledgments, and channel quality indicators.
In 5G, PUCCH continues to serve a similar role as in previous generations, handling uplink control information but with enhancements to support new 5G features and requirements. It facilitates the transmission of control signals such as scheduling requests and acknowledgments to the base station.
5G UCI (Uplink Control Information) encompasses the control information sent over the PUCCH in the 5G network. It includes various types of uplink control data essential for managing network communication and ensuring efficient data transfer between the user equipment and the network.
