Abstract
A receiver is configured to receive and process a radio signal. The radio signal includes a first frequency band including a first signal, the first signal including a plurality of TDD-frames. The receiver is configured to evaluate reception of downlink data to obtain evaluation data. The receiver is further configured to transmit the evaluation data in a second frequency band outside of the first frequency band.
Claims32
A receiver,
- wherein the receiver is configured to receive and process a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- wherein the receiver is configured to evaluate reception of downlink data to acquire evaluation data;
- wherein the receiver is configured to transmit the evaluation data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band.
A receiver,
- wherein the receiver is configured to receive and process a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- wherein the receiver is configured to transmit data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band during a downlink-only subframe of a TDD-frame of the plurality of TDD-frames.
A transmitter,
- wherein the transmitter is configured to receive and process a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- wherein the transmitter is configured to evaluate reception of downlink data to acquire evaluation data;
- wherein the transmitter is configured to transmit the evaluation data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band.
A radio signal, comprising:
- evaluation data relating to an evaluation of a reception of data received during a TDD-frame of a first signal in a first frequency band,
- wherein the radio signal comprises a second frequency band and is transmitted during a TDD-frame of the radio signal.
A method, comprising:
- receiving and processing a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- evaluating reception of downlink data to acquire evaluation data;
- transmitting the evaluation data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band.
A method, comprising:
- receiving and processing a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- transmitting data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band during a downlink-only subframe of a TDD-frame of the plurality of TDD-frames.
A non-transitory digital storage medium having a computer program stored thereon to perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving and processing a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- evaluating reception of downlink data to acquire evaluation data;
- transmitting the evaluation data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band,
- when said computer program is run by a computer.
A non-transitory digital storage medium having a computer program stored thereon to perform a method, the method comprising:
- receiving and processing a radio signal, the radio signal comprising a first frequency band comprising a first signal, the first signal comprising a plurality of TDD-frames;
- transmitting data in a second frequency band outside the first frequency band during a downlink-only subframe of a TDD-frame of the plurality of TDD-frames,
- when said computer program is run by a computer.
