Auxiliary content delivery

A transmission point (TP) for auxiliary content delivery, comprising:

• a non-transitory memory storage comprising instructions;
• and
• one or more processors in communication with the non-transitory memory storage, wherein the one or more processors execute the instructions for:
• determining a mobile wireless device capable of auxiliary content delivery to an end device according to predicted movement of the mobile wireless device with respect to the end device;
• encoding content data into a plurality of content data packets such that the content data is recoverable by the end device from a subset of the plurality of content data packets;
• and
• transmitting control data and one or more of the plurality of content data packets to the mobile wireless device in response to the mobile wireless device being within a first proximity of the TP, wherein the control data provides scheduling information to the mobile wireless device for retransmission of the one or more of the plurality of content data packets to the end device, and wherein the scheduling information comprises time and frequency resources for retransmission by the mobile wireless device of the one or more of the plurality of content data packets to the end device in response to the mobile wireless device being within a second proximity of the end device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer instructions for auxiliary content delivery, that when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of:

• determining a mobile wireless device capable of auxiliary content delivery to an end device according to predicted movement of the mobile wireless device with respect to the end device;
• encoding content data into a plurality of content data packets such that the content data is recoverable by the end device from a subset of the plurality of content data packets;
• and
• transmitting control data and one or more of the plurality of content data packets to the mobile wireless device in response to the mobile wireless device being within a first proximity of a transmission point (TP), wherein the control data provides scheduling information to the mobile wireless device for retransmission of the one or more of the plurality of content data packets to the end device, and wherein the scheduling information comprises time and frequency resources for retransmission by the mobile wireless device of the one or more of the plurality of content data packets to the end device in response to the mobile wireless device being within a second proximity of the end device.
