Abstract
The technology disclosed provides the ability for a subframe to be configured as a 'flexible' subframe. As a result, at least three different types of subframes in a TDD system may be configured: a downlink ('DL') subframe, an uplink (“UL”) subframe, and a “flexible” subframe. While the DL and UL subframes are preconfigured for each frame instance, the flexible subframes are dynamically allocated to be an uplink subframe in one instance of a frame and a downlink subframe in another instance of the frame.
