Title: Devices, base stations, and methods for communicating scheduling requests via an underlay control channel in a wireless communication system

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1576321

Wireless communication systems, base stations, and user equipment are disclosed that enable communication of scheduling requests via an underlay control channel that has an energy below a noise level of the spectrum. The scheduling requests may be sent and received at any time, including during downlink and uplink data communication periods of the base station.
