System and Method for Multi-Cell Access
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a user equipment (UE) from a serving cell, configuration information for a cooperating set, wherein the serving cell is one of a plurality of cells in the cooperating set;
determining, by the UE in accordance with the configuration information, two or more cells in the cooperating set to monitor for control information; and
monitoring, by the UE, a downlink control channel from each of the two or more cells in the cooperating set.

Abstract
A system and method for multi-cell access are provided. A method includes transmitting at least one control channel to a communications device. The at least one control channel includes control information, and the transmitting is performed by at least one cell in a subset of a cooperating set. The method also includes transmitting to the communications device based on control information transmitted to the communications device, or receiving from the communications device based on control information transmitted to the communications device. The transmitting is performed by at least one other cell in the cooperating set, or the receiving is performed by the at least one other cell in the cooperating set.
