Abstract
There is provided a method comprising causing uplink feedback information to be transmitted via a radio interface of a first access point, wherein the uplink feedback information is associated with a protocol entity for downlink data transmission via a radio interface of a second access point only.
Claims17
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to:
- cause uplink feedback information to be transmitted via a radio interface of a first access point, wherein the uplink feedback information is associated with a protocol entity that is allowed to handle downlink data transmission via a radio interface of a second access point and is not allowed to handle downlink data transmission via the radio interface of the first access point, wherein, based on the uplink feedback information, one or more further downlink data transmissions via the radio interface of the second access point are controlled or decided by the protocol entity.
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to:
- determine if uplink feedback information is to be transmitted via a radio interface of a first access point or via a radio interface of a second access point, the uplink feedback information being associated with a protocol entity that is allowed to handle downlink data transmission via a radio interface of the second access point and is not allowed to handle downlink data transmission via the radio interface of the first access point;
- and
- cause transmission of the uplink feedback information in accordance with said determining, wherein there are different protocol entities for handling downlink data transmissions for the first access point and for the second access point.

An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor and at least one memory including a computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to:
- cause downlink data transmission to a user equipment via a radio interface of a second access point;
- and
- cause reception of uplink feedback information associated with the downlink data transmission via a radio interface of a first access point, wherein the uplink feedback information is associated with a protocol entity dedicated for the downlink data transmission only via the radio interface of the second access point, wherein, based on the uplink feedback information, one or more further downlink data transmissions via the radio interface of the second access point are controlled or decided by the protocol entity.
