Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for dynamic indication of Time Division Duplex (TDD) Uplink (UL)/Downlink (DL) subframe configuration to User Equipments. A base station may identify one or more anchor subframes and one or more non-anchor subframes in a frame. The base station may dynamically change a UL/DL configuration of the frame used for communicating with a plurality of User Equipments (UEs) and signal the changed configuration using a common downlink control channel capable of being interpreted by the plurality of UEs in at least one of the one or more anchor subframes of the frame. Application of the changed configuration to one or more frames is a function of a location of reception of the common downlink control channel within the frame.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for dynamic indication of Time Division Duplex [TDD] Uplink [UL]/Downlink [DL] subframe configuration to User Equipments (102). A base station may identify (1202) one or more anchor subframes and one or more non-anchor subframes in a frame. The base station may dynamically (1204) change a UL/DL configuration of the frame used for communicating with a plurality of User Equipments [UEs] and signal (1206) the changed configuration using a common downlink control channel capable of being interpreted by the plurality of UEs in at least one of the one or more anchor subframes of the frame.

Abstract:
In aspects, methods and apparatus for utilizing a reconfiguration timer for updating TDD configuration are provided. Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose methods and apparatus for improving system performance while using adaptive uplink-downlink reconfiguration in a time division duplex (TDD) system. For certain aspects, a reconfiguration timer may be utilized along with a signaling scheme, in order to enjoy benefits of the adaptive uplink-downlink reconfiguration with minimum signaling overhead.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for measuring and mitigating interference. Such interference may include base station to base station (eNB to eNB) interference and/or UE to UE interference.A base station may determine a first subframe configuration for the base station and a second subframe configuration for one or more other base stations,wherein the first and second subframe configurations have different ratios of uplink to downlink portions.The base station may measure interference caused by the one or more other base stations based on reference signals transmitted in downlink portions of the second subframe configuration.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for interference management. The interference management is based on dynamic point selection or semi-static point selection. The method includes determining interference at a plurality of network nodes. The method includes selecting a transmission point from the plurality of network nodes for a transmission to at least one mobile entity based on the determined interference.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and-devices are described for interference mitigation in a time-division duplex(TDD)wireless communication system. First and second subframe types may be identified for TDD subframes to be transmitted using the system. Different power control parameters associated with each subframe type may be identified based on transmission directions in neighboring cells for the particular subframes. One or more TDD subframes to be transmitted may be identified as a first or second subframe type, and power control may be applied to the transmitted subframes according the power control parameter associated with the subframe type. The identification of subframes and power control parameters to be applied to each type of subframe may be transmitted, for example, to a user equipment(UE). The information may be transmitted to a UE, for example, via radio resource control(RRC)signaling or via a physical layer control channel.

Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus groups subframes of a time division duplex (TDD) configuration of a serving cell into a set of anchor subframes and a set of non-anchor subframes. The apparatus also separately bundles positive acknowledgements (ACKs) and/or negative acknowledgements (NACKs) of the anchor subframes, and ACKs and/or NACKs of the non-anchor subframes.
