Methods and apparatus in a wireless communication system for transmitting and receiving user data on a non-legacy carrier
A base station (20A) is configured to transmit user data to a wireless device (16A) upon a first carrier (22). The base station (20A) identifies, from a set of transmission resources that is nominally allocated for transmission of user data upon the first carrier (22), a subset of transmission resources that is also nominally allocated for transmission of a reference or control signal either by the base station (20A) upon a second carrier (24) or by a neighboring base station (20B) upon the first carrier (22). The base station (20A) selectively transmits user data to the wireless device (16A) upon the first carrier (22) exclusive of this identified subset of transmission resources. The device (16A) in some embodiments obtains information indicating that the base station (20A) is selectively transmitting user data upon the first carrier (22) exclusive of the subset in this way. Based on this information, the device (16A) recovers user data received upon the first carrier (22) exclusive of the subset of transmission resources.
