Abstract
A method includes acquiring an information from a second base station by a first base station, wherein the information is indicative for a relative timing displacement between (a) a first time pattern of a first radio resource partitioning scheme and (b) a second time pattern of a second radio resource partitioning scheme. The method further includes adapting the first time pattern of the first radio resource partitioning scheme, used by the first relay node, to the second time pattern of the second radio resource partitioning scheme, used by the second relay node, in such a manner that Time Transmission Intervals (TTIs) of the first time pattern which one used for uplink radio transmissions coincide with TTIs of the second time pattern which one used for uplink radio transmissions. A corresponding first base station is adapted for controlling and/or for carrying out the above described method.
