Abstract
Using a scheduler, communication may be scheduled between an access node and a plurality of wireless devices, wherein the plurality of wireless devices comprise one or more relay wireless devices or device to device (D2D) wireless devices. Using the scheduler, at least one relay wireless device or D2D wireless device may be scheduled using a semi-persistent scheduler comprising an adjusted periodicity, wherein a default periodicity used by the semi-persistent scheduler for end-user wireless devices is different from the adjusted periodicity. Data may be communicated between the access node and the at least one relay wireless device or D2D wireless device using the adjusted periodicity.
