Abstract:
TDD configuration may be dynamically and/or semi-statically signaled to user equipment devices by a base station. Semi-static TDD configuration may include: an initial portion for downlink transmission; a flexible portion; and a terminal portion for uplink transmission. TDD structure of the flexible portion may be determined later by transmission of dynamic physical layer configuration information such as downlink control information (DCI) and/or slot format indicator (SFI). (The SFI may be included in a group common PDCCH of a slot.) The downlink portion and/or the uplink portion may include subsets whose nominal transmit direction is subject to override by transmission of dynamic physical layer configuration information.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for operating a user equipment device, the method comprising:\n receiving, by a radio of the user equipment device, TDD configuration information, wherein the TDD configuration information includes parameters that define a semi-static TDD configuration for a frame structure, wherein the parameters include:\n a frame length specifying a duration of the frame structure; \n a first length specifying a duration of a downlink portion of the frame structure, wherein the downlink portion occupies an initial position within the frame structure; and \n a second length specifying a duration of an uplink portion of the frame structure, wherein the uplink portion occupies a terminal position within the frame structure; \n wherein an intermediate portion of the frame structure occurs after the downlink portion and before the uplink portion, wherein TDD structure of the intermediate portion is not determined by the TDD configuration information.
