Abstract

A method for processing control information in a wireless communications system is described in which portions of the control information are separately encoded and decoded such that transmission format information for a corresponding data transmission can be determined with a reduced set of decoded control information. The control information is convolutionally coded using either a single set of tail bits or by judiciously dispersing the tail bits among different portions of the encoded signaling information.
