METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSPARENT RELAYING

摘要

The present invention provides a method for enabling transparent relaying of data in order to improve the performance of a cellular system. Particularly, relaying on the uplink is performed by fixed entities called Transparent Relays (TR). The base station may allocate one or more TRs to relay the data transmissions associated with a particular CID (e.g., a particular subscriber station) on the uplink.
