1. A method for partitioning a soft buffer in a time-division duplex (TDD) system supporting multiple serving cells, the TDD system comprising a transceiver and a communication protocol module, the method comprising:

  • determining by the communication protocol module a total number of soft channel bits, a maximum number of transport blocks transmittable to a user equipment (UE) in a transmission time interval (TTI), a maximum number of downlink (DL) hybrid automatic retransmit request (HARQ) processes, and a preconfigured maximum number of HARQ processes; and

    selecting by the communication protocol module a partition size of the soft buffer according at least to the total number of soft channel bits, the maximum number of transport blocks transmittable to the UE in the TTI, the maximum number of DL HARQ processes, and the preconfigured maximum number of HARQ processes.
