In a mixed deployment, the allocation of time zones in the TDD duplex mode shall be as shown above. The duration of the zones may vary. Every frame shall start with a preamble and the MAP followed by legacy DL zone since legacy terminals/relays expect 802.16e zones here. The UL portion shall start with legacy UL zone since legacy BS/terminals/relays expect 802.16e control information be sent here. In a green-field deployment, the legacy zones can be removed.

Switching points should be synchronized across network to reduce inter-cell interference.

The switching points would require use of idle symbols to accommodate the gaps. In case of TDD operation with the generic frame structure, the last symbol in the slot immediately preceding a downlink-touplink/uplink-to-downlink switching point may be reserved for guard time and consequently not transmitted.

In a mixed deployment, the legacy DL/UL zones refer to 802.16REV FDD zones that use 802.16e physical resource structure and permutations. In a green-field deployment, the legacy zones may be removed.
