Abstract

A method includes composing downlink control information having a format configured to support a presence of a plurality of transport blocks in a single subframe, where the downlink control information comprises, for the plurality of transport blocks, a common resource allocation and modulation/coding scheme field and a single cyclic redundancy check field. The method further includes transmitting the composed downlink control information to a relay node over a wireless link that comprises a backhaul link from the relay node.
