Abstract
A method to control channel signaling between elements in a wireless network (e.g., a UE and a network node) is described. The method includes making a first assignment by assigning a first resource to a UE for single AN signaling. Making a second assignment by assigning a second resource to the UE for multi-bit AN signaling in conjunction with the single AN signaling is also included in the method. A resource block reserved for sending dynamic AN feedback includes the first resource and the second resource. The method includes providing (e.g., via a transmitter) an indication of the first assignment and the second assignment Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.
