BUFFER STATUS REPORTING FOR TIME DIVISION DUPLEX LONG TERM EVOLUTION

摘要

Communication systems may benefit from fast buffer status reporting. For example, fast buffer status reporting may be relevant to third generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution advanced (LTE-Advanced) technology beyond release 11 (Rel-11). More specifically, fast buffer status reporting may be application to LTE time division duplex (TDD) and may provide further enhancement for traffic adaptation and uplink-downlink (UL-DL) interference management. A method may include detennining an uplink control channel resource to use for signaling a buffer status report. The method may also include signaling the buffer status report on a physical uplink control channel.
