Heterogeneous network partition in TDD beyond radio frame

摘要

Maintaining uplink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) compatibility with extended radio frames includes partitioning subframe groups over an extended radio frame having a length of time greater than a time defined for a single radio frame. User equipment (UE) suspends PUSCH (physical uplink shared channel) retransmission in the extended radio frame, in accordance with hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) timing of a subframe group assigned to the UE.

主权项

1. A method for wireless communication comprising:
communicating, by a user equipment (UE), using an extended radio frame, the extended radio frame comprising at least a portion of a first radio frame that supports a first set of uplink-downlink configurations and at least a portion of a second radio frame that supports a second set of uplink-downlink configurations, wherein the first set of uplink-downlink configurations and the second set of uplink-downlink configurations are partitioned into one or more subframe groups; and adjusting, by the UE, a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) timing based at least in part on the extended radio frame.
