Abstract
A method is proposed to enable a UE performing codeword level interference cancellation (CW-IC) to know whether an interfering transport block (TB) is a new transmission or retransmission. With this knowledge, the UE knows whether the soft channel bits stored in a soft buffer are to be discarded or combined with the soft channel bits newly obtained.
