Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method and apparatus for a secondary wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) to use of secondary cellular spectrum are provided. The secondary WTRU monitors transmissions of a primary WTRU; determines whether to provide assistance to the primary WTRU; and in response to a determination to provide assistance, performs cooperative communications with the primary WTRU for its transmission of data to a base station. If the assistance results in the data being transmitted to the base station faster than it would have with out assistance, the secondary WTRU may utilize uplink resources originally intended for the primary WTRU.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for obtaining use of secondary cellular spectrum by a secondary wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU), the method comprising: receiving information from a base station regarding a set of primary WTRUs needing assistance; determining whether to provide assistance to a primary WTRU from the set of primary WTRUs; in response to a determination to provide assistance, performing cooperative communications with a selected primary WTRU from the set of…
