A mobile station may comprise a receiver configured to receive, from a base station, a broadcast signal indicating a first subframe configuration for use in an uplink direction and a downlink direction and a second subframe configuration for use in at least a downlink direction. The mobile station may be configured to receive first downlink data and transmit first uplink data, during a single subframe of one or more radio frames, using the first subframe configuration. The mobile station may receive second downlink data, during a single subframe of the one or more radio frames, using the second subframe configuration. The first subframe configuration and the second subframe configuration may be different OFDM subframe configurations and a first subframe configured in accordance with the first subframe configuration and a second subframe configured in accordance with the second subframe configuration may have a same duration.
