Abstract
Methods and apparatuses of a mobile subscriber transmitting information to a base station are disclosed. One method includes identifying an uplink transmission condition. If the uplink transmission condition is identified, the mobile subscriber transmits a message over multiple uplink frames using multiple uplink frame types. The mobile subscriber may inform the base station that it is transmitting the message over the multiple uplink frames.
Claims22
A method of a subscriber transmitting information to a base station, comprising:
- transmitting a frame of a first type;
- identifying an uplink transmission condition;
- if the uplink transmission condition meets a predetermined condition, the subscriber transmits a frame of a second type, wherein an uplink sub-frame duration of the frame of the second type is longer than an uplink sub-frame duration of the frame of the first type.
A system for transmitting information to a base station, comprising:
- a processor operable to schedule the transmission of a frame of a first type and a frame of a second type, wherein an uplink sub-frame duration of the frame of the second type is longer than an uplink sub-frame duration of the frame of the first type;
- the processor operable to select the frame of the second type when an uplink transmission condition meets a predetermined condition.
