Allocation of subframes for uplink and downlink transmission in TDD-LTE

摘要

Systems and methods are directed to deciding the number of subframes in a frame to use for uplink transmission, with the remaining frames used for downlink transmission for a Base Station (BS) in a Time Division Duplexing Long Term Evolution (TDD-LTE). Systems and methods are based on the number of User Equipment (UEs) that the BS has to serve in the uplink and in the downlink, as well as the uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) traffic loads per user. Systems and methods are directed to allowing a TDD LTE BS to partition the subframes in a frame for its UL and DL traffic.
