System and method for message acknowledgment feedback for device-to-device communication overlaid on a cellular network
2013
An embodiment of a system for operating a communications controller for a group of user equipments engaged in a direct mobile communication ("DMC") link in a wireless communications system is provided. The communications controller is configured to allocate a set of subframes to the group of UEs for the DMC link, signal the set of allocated subframes to the group of UEs, and signal a length of a sliding window to the group of UEs. In an embodiment, ACK/NACK feedback for communications over the DMC link is aggregated according to the length of the sliding window, and the ACK/NACK feedback for the communications over the DMC link is determined independently from ACK/NACK feedback for cellular transmission between the communication controller and the group of UEs. In an embodiment, the length of the sliding window is a number of subframes.
