The Relay Node supports the eNB functionality meaning it terminates the radio protocols of the E-UTRA radio interface, and the S1 and X2 interfaces. In addition to the eNB functionality, the RN also supports a subset of the UE functionality, e.g. physical layer, layer-2, RRC, and NAS functionality, in order to wirelessly connect to the DeNB.

With respect to the relay node’s usage of spectrum, its operation can be divided into inband and outband types. For both inband and outband relaying, it is possible to operate the eNB-to-relay link on the same carrier frequency as eNB-to-UE links. 3GPP Release 8, UEs can connect to the donor cell in both cases.

At least "Type 1" and “Type 1a” RNs are supported by LTE-Advanced. A "Type 1" RN is an inband RN characterized, A Type 1a relay node is characterized by the same set of features as the Type 1 relay node, except “Type 1a” operates outband.

Going through one of the 3GPP specification, there is one term i.e. DeNB is encountered.

Can someone please put some light over the functionality of DeNB ?

An UE configured for carrier aggregation, may have different radio channel conditions for primary and secondary cells.
I meant to say, primary cell may have strong signal strength at the same time UE may observed secondary cell(s) not too good.
In this case, does the same modulation and coding schemes used for primary and secondary or may use different coding and modulation schemes for different channels for the same sub frame?

What is the limit of neighbors for a LTE Cell
1> Max No. of Intra LTE Neighbors (Same eNb & Neighbor E-NodeB)
2> Max No of nbrs for IRAT (GSM/CDMA/3G) per eNb cell
3> Max no of nbrs which can be defined on S1 interface
4> Max no of nbrs which can be defined on X2 interface
