Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided that facilitate associating with relays in a wireless network. A device can select whether to utilize relay assistance where present based at least in part on measuring one or more determined or projected parameters related to the relay. Where utilizing a relay results in user-plane data channel conditions above a threshold level and control channel conditions below a threshold level, a serving base station can determine whether to employ another base station to serve the device, jointly serve a relay with an additional base station, and/or the like.

Abstract: Techniques for acknowledging data transmissions in a multi-carrier wireless communication network are disclosed. In one aspect, a UE determines a number of acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) bits for a data transmission on one more component carriers (CCs) based on information obtained from a grant. The grant may be a downlink grant or an uplink grant, and the information obtained may include a number of CCs scheduled for data transmission and/or identifiers of the scheduled CCs. The UE may determine the number of ACK/NACK bits for acknowledging the data transmission based on the number of scheduled CCs and the identifier of each scheduled CC.

Abstract: Transmission management is provided with separate resource partitioning management for control and data transmissions. An evolved node B (eNB) generates separate resource partition schedules for the transmission stream, in which a first schedule is used for data transmissions while a second schedule is used for control signal transmissions. The two separate schemes may have different periodicities or different subframe type assignments that benefit either data or control transmissions or that allow for coordination of both data and control. The eNBs may broadcast the different schedules in regular system information messages, in which the UEs served by these eNBs will configure data and control signal transmissions according to the appropriate resource partition schedules.

Abstract translation: 传输管理为控制和数据传输提供单独的资源划分管理。 演进节点B（eNB）为传输流生成单独的资源分区调度，其中第一调度用于数据传输，而第二调度用于控制信号传输。 两个单独的方案可以具有不同的周期性或不同的子帧类型分配，其有利于数据或控制传输，或者允许数据和控制的协调。 eNB可以在常规系统信息消息中广播不同的调度，其中由这些eNB服务的UE将根据适当的资源分区调度来配置数据和控制信号传输。

Abstract: Techniques for reporting channel state information (CSI) are disclosed. A user equipment (UE) may be configured for operation on multiple carriers with different configurations, e.g., FDD and TDD carriers and/or carriers with different uplink-downlink configurations. The multiple carriers may have different subframes for making measurements for CSI and/or different subframes for sending CSI. In response to a CSI request, the UE may determine at least one reference subframe to use for determining CSI for the multiple carriers. The reference subframe may be common to the plurality of carriers and may, for example, be based the subframe in which the CSI request in sent. Alternatively, the reference subframe may be different for different carriers such as when it is based on different HARQ timelines applicable for the different carriers. The UE may determine the CSI for the multiple carriers based on the reference subframe(s) and may report the CSI.
