Abstract
A time division duplex (TDD) cellular communication system () is arranged to support both uplink and downlink communication allocated for unicast time division duplex (TDD) communication that uses a single cell identifier reuse pattern. The TDD cellular communication system () comprises a plurality of wireless serving communication units operably coupled to management logic. The TDD cellular communication system () further comprises management logic () arranged to partition time domain physical resources such that unicast communication using the single cell identifier reuse pattern is supported in a first portion of the time domain physical resource and a broadcast communication using a common cell identifier () reuse pattern for broadcast communications is supported in a second portion of the time domain physical resource.
