A method and apparatus are disclosed for enhancing TTI bundling in a wireless communication network. In one embodiment, the method includes a network node configuring a TTI bundling operation to a UE (User Equipment) for uplink transmissions, wherein a TB (Transport Block) is transmitted in a TTI bundle and the TTI bundle contains multiple subframes, and the network node transmits a HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat and reQuest) ACK (Acknowledgement) to the UE for a transmission received within the TTI bundle if the transmitted TB is decoded successfully and the transmission is not the last transmission of the TTI bundle. In another embodiment, the method includes a network node configuring a TTI bundling operation to a UE (User Equipment) for uplink transmissions, wherein a TB (Transport Block) is transmitted in a TTI bundle and the TTI bundle contains multiple subframes, the network node transmits a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) to the UE for triggering an adaptive retransmission within the TTI bundle, and the retransmission is not a first transmission of the TTI bundle. |
