| 20100322143 | Uplink Transmissions for Type 2 Relay - A method for providing user agent data. The method includes an access node receiving an indicator sent from a relay node as an indication that the relay node has received data from the user agent. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100323614 | Mobile Station Association Procedures with Type II Relays - A relay node including one or more components configured to measure a signal strength of sounding reference signals (SRS) received from a mobile station, and in response to the signal strength being above a predetermined threshold, to transmit a first request to an access node. The first request is for the access node to associate the mobile station with the relay node. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100323684 | Downlink Reference Signal for Type II Relay - A network comprising a relay node configured to transmit a first common reference signal (CRS) to a plurality of user agents (UAs) using a first plurality of physical antennas and/or virtual antennas, and an access node configured to transmit a second CRS to the UAs using a second plurality of physical antennas and/or virtual antennas, wherein the first CRS and the second CRS are combined for the same number of first and second physical antennas and/or virtual antennas. Also included is a network comprising a relay node configured to transmit a dedicated reference signal (DRS) to a UA using a first plurality of physical antennas and/or virtual antennas, and an access node configured to transmit a second DRS to the UA using a second plurality of physical antennas and/or virtual antennas, wherein the first DRS and the second DRS are transmitted at about the same time. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100325506 | Downlink Transmissions for Type 2 Relay - A method for transmitting data to a user agent. The method includes a relay node receiving information from an access node, the information containing the data that is to be transmitted to the user agent and control information that the access node will use to transmit the data to the user agent. The method further includes the relay node transmitting the data to the user agent at the time the access node transmits the data to the user agent, the relay node using the control information that the access node uses to transmit the data to the user agent. | 12-23-2010 |
