Abstract:
A method and apparatus may include receiving an uplink grant in a specific subframe of a frame and/or a physical hybrid-ARQ indicator channel transmission, for a physical-uplink-shared-channel transmission or retransmission on a special subframe. The method may also include determining that the uplink grant validates transmitting a physical-uplink-shared-channel transmission on the special subframe, or that the physical hybrid-ARQ indicator channel transmission validates transmitting a physical-uplink-shared-channel retransmission on the special subframe. The method may also include determining transmission parameters for transmitting the physical-uplink-shared-channel transmission or retransmission. The method may also include transmitting the physical-uplink-shared-channel transmission or retransmission on the special subframe.
