Abstract:
In a time division duplex (TDD) communication system, an unconnected base station that is not directly connected to a core network transmits uplink backhaul signals to a connected base station when the unconnected base station is transmitting downlink signals to one or more user equipment (UE) devices and receives downlink backhaul signals from the connected base station when receiving uplink signals from one or more UE devices. After determining the transmission schedule of the connected base station, the unconnected base station selects a transmission schedule that is orthogonal to the connected base station transmission schedule. Depending on the particular implementation, the unconnected base station may be a repeater base station, a relay base station, or a self-backhauled base station.

Claim (Index 16):
A communication system comprising:\n a connected base station connected to a core network; and an unconnected base station not connected to the network, the unconnected base station comprising:\n a receiver configured to receive time division duplex (TDD) configuration information from the connected base station, the TDD configuration information indicating a transmission and reception schedule of the connected base station; and \n a transmitter, the unconnected base station applying an unconnected base station TDD configuration to the transmitter and the receiver such that: \n the transmitter is configured to transmit first downlink signals to a first user equipment (UE) device when the connected base station is receiving first uplink signals from a second UE device; \n the transmitter is configured to transmit first backhaul signals to the connected base station when the connected base station is receiving the first uplink signals from the second UE device; and \n the receiver is configured to receive second uplink signals from the first UE device when the connected base station is transmitting second downlink signals to the second UE device, the TDD configuration of the unconnected base station based on the TDD configuration of the connected base station.
