Base station radio resource management
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- transmitting, by a first base station, a first physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the first base station, wherein the first physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and begins in time at a first symbol number in a series of symbols of a subframe; and
transmitting, by a second base station, a second physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the second base station,wherein second radio resources of the second physical downlink control channel are configured based on the first symbol number of the first physical downlink control channel to manage overlap with first radio resources of the first physical downlink control channel.

Abstract
A first base station may transmit a first physical downlink channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the first base station, wherein the first physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and begins in time at a first symbol number in a series of symbols of a subframe. A second base station may transmit a second physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the second base station. Second radio resources of the second physical downlink control channel may be configured based on the first symbol number of the first physical downlink control channel to manage overlap with first radio resources of the first physical downlink control channel.

8. A system comprising:
-
a first base station comprising; one or more processors; and one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors of the first base station, cause the first base station to transmit a first physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the first base station, wherein the first physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and begins in time at a first symbol number in a series of symbols of a subframe; and a second base station comprising; one or more processors; and one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors of the second base station, cause the second base station to transmit a second physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the second base station, wherein second radio resources of the second physical downlink control channel are configured based on the first symbol number of the first physical downlink control channel to manage overlap with first radio resources of the first physical downlink control channel. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A method comprising:
-
determining, by a second base station, a symbol number of a starting symbol in time of first radio resources of a first physical downlink control channel transmitted by a first base station; determining, by the second base station and based on the symbol number of the starting symbol in time, second radio resources of a second physical downlink control channel of the second base station to manage overlap with the first radio resources of the first physical downlink control channel; and transmitting, by the second base station, the second physical downlink control channel using the determined second radio resources. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A second base station comprising:
-
one or more processors; and one or more memories storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the second base station to perform the following; determine a symbol number of a starting symbol in time of first radio resources of a first physical downlink control channel transmitted by a first base station; determine, based on the symbol number of the starting symbol in time, second radio resources of a second physical downlink control channel of the second base station to manage overlap with the first radio resources of the first physical downlink control channel; and transmit the second physical downlink control channel using the determined second radio resources. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A method comprising:
-
transmitting, by a first base station, a first physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the first base station, wherein the first physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and is transmitted employing a first beamforming codeword; and transmitting, by a second base station, a second physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the second base station, wherein the second physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and is transmitted employing a second beamforming codeword, wherein at least one of the first beamforming codeword or the second beamforming codeword is configured to manage inter-cell interference between the first physical downlink control channel and the second physical downlink control channel. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30, 31)

32. A system comprising:
-
a first base station comprising; one or more processors; and one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors of the first base station, cause the first base station to transmit a first physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the first base station, wherein the first physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and is transmitted employing a first beamforming codeword; and a second base station comprising; one or more processors; and one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors of the second base station, cause the second base station to transmit a second physical downlink control channel associated with one or more wireless devices in communication with the second base station, wherein the second physical downlink control channel is transmitted in fewer than all subframes of a frame and is transmitted employing a second beamforming codeword, wherein at least one of the first beamforming codeword or the second beamforming codeword is configured to manage inter-cell interference between the first physical downlink control channel and the second physical downlink control channel. - View Dependent Claims (33, 34, 35, 36, 37)
