ABSTRACT:
In order to improve Multi-input Multi-Output (MIMO) operation, the present invention provides a method of improving MIMO operation for a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communications system. The method includes receiving a first value according to a number of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes in a HARQ procedure for the UE, receiving a first HARQ process identifier corresponding to a primary transport block, and assigning a second HARQ process identifier corresponding to a secondary transport block to be equal to (H+(N/2)) mod (N), wherein H represents the first HARQ process identifier, mod represents modulus arithmetic, and N represents the first value.
