Dynamic configuration of uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) frame resources for a time division duplex (TDD) transmission
First Claim
1. At least one non-transitory machine readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon for performing adaptive time division duplexing (TDD) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACKnowledgement (ACK) reporting from a user equipment (UE), the instructions when executed by one or more processors at the UE perform the following:
- implementing, at the UE, an adaptive uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration received from an eNodeB;
processing, at the UE, a downlink (DL) HARQ reference configuration received from the eNodeB for a serving cell, wherein the DL HARQ reference configuration is for the implemented adaptive UL-DL configuration; and
formatting, at the UE, HARQ-ACK feedback for transmission on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) or physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of the serving cell in accordance with the DL HARQ reference configuration.

Abstract
Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to perform adaptive time division duplexing (TDD) hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-ACKnowledgement (ACK) reporting is described. The UE can implement an adaptive uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration received from an eNodeB. The UE can process a downlink (DL) HARQ reference configuration received from the eNodeB for a serving cell. The DL HARQ reference configuration can be for the implemented adaptive UL-DL configuration. The UE can format HARQ-ACK feedback for transmission on a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) or physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) of the serving cell in accordance with the DL HARQ reference configuration.
