Patent attributes
An apparatus may utilize an air interface to transmit and/or receive a subframe having a data portion and a control channel that is at least partly embedded within the data portion. The control channel may include one or more pilot tones. The control channel may include an override indicator. The override indicator may indicate that data previously scheduled for transmission in the subframe is overridden by other data having a higher priority. The override indicator may indicate a puncturing of resource elements in the data portion of the subframe to include other data having a priority higher than data previously scheduled for transmission in the subframe. The control channel may include a modulation indicator when the subframe is included in a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) transmission. The modulation indicator may indicate information corresponding to a modulation of another apparatus that is included in the MU-MIMO transmission.
