- - SLOTTED SUB-BAND DUPLEX FRAME STRUCTURE DESIGN IN A WIDEBAND TIME-DIVISION DUPLEX SYSTEM

摘要

Methods, apparatus, and computer program products for wireless communication are provided. The method includes scheduling, at a scheduling entity, a first frame for transmission over a wireless network supporting time division duplexing (TDD), the first frame having a first bandwidth to be used for uplink transmission to the scheduling entity And a first duplex symbol comprising a second bandwidth to be used for downlink transmission from the scheduling entity, and for transmitting the scheduling information while the first frame is being transmitted And using a second bandwidth. The scheduling information may be associated with a second frame that is scheduled to be transmitted immediately after the first frame. The scheduling information includes uplink acknowledgment or downlink acknowledgment.
