<p>relay device 8, and a terminal device 9. The terminal device is operable to transmit a message to the base station via the relay device. The relay device is operable to add a relay header to the message received from the terminal device, the relay header comprising control information for controlling the transmission of subsequent messages from the terminal device to the relay device_ The relay device is also operable to relay the message having the relay header added to the base station. A problem with uplink-only relaying is that the relay device cannot feed back control information to the terminal device to support efficient future transmissions over the air interface between the terminal device and the relay device. However, by adding such control information to messages being relayed from the terminal device to the base station on the uplink, subsequent downlink communications from the base station to the terminal device can include the control information generated at the relay device (or transmission parameters derived from the control information).</p> |
