Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for dynamic indication of Time Division Duplex (TDD) Uplink (UL)/Downlink (DL) subframe configuration to User Equipments. A base station may identify one or more anchor subframes and one or more non-anchor subframes in a frame. The base station may dynamically change a UL/DL configuration of the frame used for communicating with a plurality of User Equipments (UEs) and signal the changed configuration using a common downlink control channel capable of being interpreted by the plurality of UEs in at least one of the one or more anchor subframes of the frame.
