The present application relates to the field of wireless communications, and in particular, to an indication method and device for a modulation coding scheme. It is used for solving the problem that in an existing LTE / LTE-A system, a higher-order modulation scheme cannot be supported, thereby limiting the further improvement of throughput in an application scenario of a high signal-to-noise ratio. The method of the embodiments of the present application includes: according to the channel quality and a first MCS table, a network side determining an MCS grade corresponding to a channel assigned to a terminal; and by means of first indication information, notifying the terminal of the determined MCS grade, so as to indicate to the terminal to determine a modulation scheme and coding rate used by the channel assigned thereto according to the MCS grade, wherein the first MCS table at least contains corresponding records of an MCS index and a TBS index corresponding to a modulation scheme with a modulation order greater than 6. The embodiments of the present application introduce a higher-order modulation scheme into an existing LTE / LTE-A system, improving the spectrum efficiency.

The present invention provides a unique feedback system in a wireless communication system wherein the transmission channel is always overloaded with data, which is configured and modulated at a select order of modulation. Based on the channel conditions, only a portion of the data can be successfully received. As such, the receiver will attempt to receive the data using demodulation techniques corresponding to the different levels of modulation used to encode the data transmitted. The receiver will determine the data that is recovered, or the highest order of modulation at which the data is recovered, and provide feedback to the transmitter. The transmitter will then retransmit the data that was not properly received. By overloading the channel at all times, the maximum amount of data capable of being transmitted over the channel is optimized without requiring or heavily relying on the receiver feeding back channel condition information to the transmitter.

An apparatus and method are provided for normalizing input soft metric to a channel decoder in a wireless communication system. A demapper generates soft metric using an in-phase component (Xk) and a quadrature component (Yk) of a received modulated symbol (Rk), a channel fading coefficient (gk) and a constant value (c) defined by a modulation order of the received modulated symbol. A normalizer receives the soft metric, computes a normalized log likelihood ratio (LLR) by multiplying the soft metric by a ratio of the constant value to a noise variance value, transforms the normalized LLR into a desired range and a desired number of bits, and outputs an input LLR of the channel decoder.

The present invention is provided a method for allocating uplink resources in a communication system. The method includes calculating a scheduling metric for each Mobile Station (MS), selecting an MS with a high priority according to the scheduling metric, determining a Modulation order Product coding Rate (MPR) and a number of subchannels for the selected MS, and allocating the determined MPR and the determined number of subchannels to the selected MS and updating the scheduling metric for the each MS.
