Abstract

A user equipment, a network node and methods thereof for timing of scheduling of resources in a frequency division duplex system are disclosed. The user equipment and network node operate in a frequency division duplex communication system. The network node determines () whether a user equipment is prohibited to receive an uplink grant in at least one downlink subframe, e.g. if the user equipment is configured with ABS or with half-duplex operation. Furthermore, if the user equipment is prohibited to receive an uplink grant in at least one downlink subframe, the network node sends () an indication to the user equipment to apply a time division duplex configuration to the timing of scheduling of resources. The user equipment receives () the indication and thereupon applies () the time division duplex configuration to the timing of scheduling of resources.
