Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and systems for wireless communications are described. A base station may send a message with configuration parameters to a wireless device, and the configuration parameters may be for at least two different types of carriers used for communications.
Claims30
A wireless device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
- receive at least one message comprising:
- configuration parameters for each carrier of a plurality of carriers, the plurality of carriers comprising:
- at least one carrier of a first carrier type;
- and
- at least one carrier of a second carrier type, different from the first carrier type, wherein the at least one carrier of the second carrier type comprises at least one sub-frame without a reference signal;
- and
- information indicating whether each carrier of the plurality of carriers is of the first carrier type or the second carrier type;
- and
- transmit channel state information of the at least one carrier of the second carrier type via an uplink carrier of the at least one carrier of the first carrier type.

A method comprising:
- receiving, by a wireless device, at least one message comprising:
- configuration parameters for each carrier of a plurality of carriers, the plurality of carriers comprising:
- at least one carrier of a first carrier type;
- and
- at least one carrier of a second carrier type, different from the first carrier type, wherein the at least one carrier of the second carrier type comprises at least one sub-frame without a reference signal;
- and
- information indicating whether each carrier of the plurality of carriers is of the first carrier type or the second carrier type;
- and
- transmitting channel state information of the at least one carrier of the second carrier type via an uplink carrier of the at least one carrier of the first carrier type.

- at least one carrier of a first carrier type;
- and
- at least one carrier of a second carrier type, different from the first carrier type, wherein the at least one carrier of the second carrier type comprises at least one sub-frame without a reference signal;
- and
- information indicating whether each carrier of the plurality of carriers is of the first carrier type or the second carrier type;
- and
- receive channel state information of the at least one carrier of the second carrier type via an uplink carrier of the at least one carrier of the first carrier type.
