TRANSMISSION OF CONTROL INFORMATION FOR FDD-TDD CARRIER AGGREGATION
First Claim
1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- determining first and second component carriers (CCs) configured for a user equipment (UE), the first and second CCs being associated with first and second control messages, respectively, having different definitions; and
sending first control information for the first CC based on a definition of the second control message for the second CC

Abstract
Techniques for transmitting control information to support communication on multiple component carriers (CCs) are disclosed. A user equipment (UE) may be configured for operation on multiple CCs. These CCs may be associated with control messages having different definitions. For example, a control message for a CC configured for frequency division duplex (FDD) may have a different definition than a control message for a CC configured for time division duplex (TDD). A base station may send first control information for a first CC based on a definition of a control message for a second CC, instead of a definition of a control message for the first CC. The control message for the second CC may be selected for use to send the first control information based on various designs.
