Abstract
Methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture are disclosed that provide for early termination based on transport block fail for acknowledgement bundling in time division duplex. In one embodiment, a method for operating a communication device is provided. In this embodiment, the communication device decodes a downlink subframe that is part of a bundle of subframes. If it detects a CRC failure in the subframe, it inhibits decoding of at least one other subframe in the bundle if present and reports the failure to the sending node. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules that allow a reader to quickly ascertain the disclosed subject matter. Therefore, it is to be understood that it should not be used to interpret or limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.
