Abstract:
A relay node comprising a processor configured such that the relay node transmits a multicast/broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) subframe including a control portion without a data portion, wherein the control portion comprises additional information assigned to any available resource elements (REs). Also included is a user agent (UA) comprising a processor configured such that the UA receives a MBSFN subframe including a control portion without a data portion, wherein the control portion comprises additional information assigned to any available REs. Also included is a method of wireless communication comprising transmitting a MBSFN subframe including a control portion without a data portion, wherein the control portion comprises additional information assigned to any available REs. Also included is a method of wireless communication comprising receiving a MBSFN subframe including a control portion without a data portion, wherein the control portion comprises additional information assigned to any available REs.
