摘要:
A method and apparatus for cooperative relaying in wireless communications is provided. An efficient and simplified relay scheme is disclosed that transitions between different modes on a per packet basis using scheduling information or switching information included in the packet, without requiring link reconfiguration. The cooperative relay scheme benefits further from the use of cooperative relaying protocols that emphasize centralized scheduling. One protocol emphasizes physical layer cooperation via synchronized transmissions and distributed space-time coding and the other protocol emphasizes medium access control (MAC) layer cooperation using different MAC flows or messages.

摘要:
A method and apparatus are used in cooperative relays with incremental redundancy (IR) and distributed spatial multiplexing. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may listen to the base station (BS) transmission during Phase 1 of the communication, and use cooperation between a relay station (RS) and the BS for the data transmission during Phase 2 to improve performance. During Phase 2, both the BS and the RS may transmit data to the WTRU, using either distributed Space Time Block Codes/Space Frequency Block Codes (STBC/SFBC) or distributed spatial multiplexing.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for power control for distributed wireless communication is disclosed including one or more power control loops associated with a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). Each power control loop may include open loop power control or closed loop power control. A multi-phase power control method is also disclosed with each phase representing a different time interval and a WTRU sends transmissions at different power levels to different set of node-Bs or relay stations during different phases to optimize communications.

摘要:
A plurality of time frame structures that support the use of multicast cooperative relay schemes are disclosed. These time frame structures are used in IEEE 802.16j networks as well as other wireless networks. Furthermore, modifications to the frame structures used in IEEE 802.16j networks are disclosed.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for operating supplementary cells in licensed exempt (LE) spectrum. An aggregating cell operating in a frequency division duplex (FDD) licensed spectrum is aggregated with a LE supplementary cell operating in a time sharing mode for uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) operations. The LE supplementary cell may be an FDD supplementary cell dynamically configurable between an UL only mode, a DL only mode, and a shared mode, to match requested UL and DL traffic ratios. The LE supplementary cell may be a time division duplex (TDD) supplementary cell. The TDD supplementary cell may be dynamically configurable between multiple TDD configurations. A coexistence capability for coordinating operations between the LE supplementary cell with other systems operating in the same channel is provided. Coexistence gaps are provided to measure primary/secondary user usage and permit other systems operating in the LE supplementary cell channel to access the channel.
