A method and system is disclosed wherein timeslots designated in a wireless communication system as Common Physical Channel (CPCH) timeslots may be reused for user traffic. A CPCH timeslot used in a first cell may be reused by a second cell, assuming the first and second cells transmit control information in different CPCH timeslots, for user traffic. The second cell is permitted to reuse the timeslot in which the first cell is transmitting control information so long as the second cell's reuse of that timeslot does not degrade reception of control information in the first cell.
In a wireless communication system comprising a plurality of cells wherein each cell transmits control information in a time slot designated for transmission of the control information for supporting communication with a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) wherein neighboring cells use different time slots for control information, a method for reusing the control information timeslots for user traffic, the method comprising:
A system for reusing timeslots for control information for user traffic, the system comprising:
