Abstract

A dynamic time division duplex (TDD) mechanism for small cellular networks is disclosed. The mechanism dynamically allocates radio resource usage with commensurate increases in throughput and reductions in latency. For example, scheduling data comprising scheduling information data can be received by a device, wherein the scheduling information data comprises uplink allocation data. Then the device can switch from a first mode to a second mode as a function of the uplink allocation data, and transmission data can be transmitted in a subframe of a frame by skipping a resource allocated for the scheduling information data.
