METHODS AND SYSTEM FOR RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN TTI (TRANSMISSION TIME INTERVAL) BUNDLING FOR IMPROVED PHASE CONTINUITY

Abstract:

Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose methods for improving phase continuity in an uplink transmit time interval (TTI) bundle. A first method may include identifying a segment of UL subframes in the TTI bundle and maintaining substantially the same transmit power/timing/frequency when transmitting data to a node over the segment of UL subframes in the TTI bundle. Another method may include ignoring reception of downlink subframes for a duration of the TTI bundle.
