Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATED
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 14:
15. A first wireless communication device in a wireless communication network, comprising:
a wireless transceiver;
a memory; and
a processor coupled to the wireless transceiver and the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:
communicate with a base station over a first link and a second wireless communication device over a second link on a common carrier shared between the first link and the second link via the wireless transceiver;
receive a grant from the base station comprising an indication of resources on the common carrier for a superposition transmission comprising a base layer corresponding to an uplink signal to be transmitted to the base station and an enhanced layer corresponding to a sidelink signal to be transmitted to at least the second wireless communication device, wherein the grant is included within downlink control information (DCI) received from the base station;
transmit interference assistance information associated with the base layer to the second wireless communication device via the wireless transceiver, the interference assistance information comprising a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) used for the uplink signal, wherein the first MCS is included within the DCI; and
transmit the superposition transmission comprising the base layer and the enhanced layer to the base station and the second wireless communication device via the wireless transceiver based on a power split factor included within the DCI.
