Abstract

Scheduling of delay-sensitive downlink traffic in a downlink carrier aggregation scenario is performed in such a way as to take advantage of the unambiguous HARQ feedback that is available when the downlink assignment is transmitted coincident with an uplink TDD subframe on the secondary carrier. An example method, in a wireless network node supporting downlink carrier aggregation of a primary carrier in Frequency-Division Duplexing, FDD, mode and a secondary carrier in Time-Division Duplexing, TDD, mode, includes determining (710) that a first user device supported or to be supported with said downlink carrier aggregation has delay-sensitive downlink traffic. Subsequent scheduling of the first user device's delay-sensitive downlink traffic is prioritized (720) in transmission-time intervals, TTIs, in which the subframe of the secondary carrier is an uplink subframe. The delay-sensitive downlink traffic may be voice-over-Internet-Protocol, VoIP, traffic, for example.

Description

technical field [0001] The techniques disclosed herein relate generally to wireless telecommunications networks, and more specifically to techniques for supporting downlink carrier aggregation and delay sensitive downlink traffic in such networks. Background technique [0002] carrier aggregation [0003] Carrier aggregation is one of the features recently developed by members of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) for the so-called Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, formally known as the Enhanced Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN), and Part of being standardized as LTE Release 10, also known as LTE-Advanced. [0004] Release 8, an earlier version of the LTE standard, supports transmission bandwidths of up to 20 MHz. However, the ultra-high data rates expected for LTE-Advanced will require extended transmission bandwidth. Therefore, by utilizing carrier aggregation, bandwidths up to 100 MHz are supported in LTE-Advanced. In order to maintain b...
