Abstract:
There is provided a frame structure for a cellular communication system. According to an embodiment, there is provided a first radio frame configuration defining a frame structure of a radio frame comprising at least one sub-frame dedicated only for downlink transmission. There is also provided a second radio frame configuration defining a frame structure of a radio frame comprising at least one flexible special sub-frame configurable as either a flexible downlink sub-frame or as a flexible uplink sub-frame, wherein the flexible downlink sub-frame and the flexible uplink sub-frame both comprise an uplink part and a downlink part, and wherein both the uplink part and the downlink part carry at least one of control information and a reference signal. Amongst a set of radio frame configurations comprising at least the first and second radio frame configuration, a radio frame configuration is selected and a radio signal carrying an information element indicating the selected radio frame configuration is exchanged in order to configure the selected radio frame configuration for use in the cellular communication system.

Claim (Index 55):
The method of  claim 50 , further comprising in the terminal device:\n receiving flexible special sub-frame and, together with the flexible special sub-frame, an indication of whether the flexible special sub-frame is a flexible special downlink frame or a flexible special uplink frame; and applying to the received flexible special sub-frame a sub-frame structure mapped to the received indication.
