Claim:
1. A method in a wireless device capable of operating in a Radio Access Network according to at least a first UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising a frequency division duplex (FDD) subframe configuration and a second UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising a time division duplex (TDD) subframe configuration, wherein the first and second UpLink/DownLink subframe configurations are different, wherein the first UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the FDD subframe configuration and the second UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the TDD subframe configuration are used for operation in a first cell and a second cell respectively and/or wherein the first UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the FDD subframe configuration and the second UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the TDD subframe configuration are used in the first cell at non-overlapping times or in the second cell at non-overlapping times, the method comprising: receiving a configuration message at the wireless device relating to the first UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the FDD subframe configuration and/or the second UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the TDD subframe configuration, wherein the wireless device is capable of operating according to at least the first UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the FDD subframe configuration and the second UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the TDD subframe configuration and wherein receiving the configuration message at the wireless device comprises receiving the configuration message from a network node different from a radio network node serving the wireless device; and performing an operation at the wireless device on signals transmitted to and/or received from the first cell and/or the second cell based on the configuration message relating to the first UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the FDD subframe configuration and/or the second UpLink/DownLink subframe configuration comprising the TDD subframe configuration.
