摘要:
A signal combiner for combining transmission signals to be supplied to four antennas devices, wherein two of the antenna devices are polarized in a first orientation and two of the antenna devices are polarized in a second orientation essentially orthogonal to the first orientation. The signal combiner comprises: four input connections arranged to receive the transmission signals; four output connections arranged to drive a respective one of the four of antenna devices using respective output signals. The signal combiner is arranged to combine transmission signals supplied on each input connection to all of the four output connections using beam forming and phase adjustment, such that, in use, each supplied transmission signal generates a central beam polarized in the first orientation and a side beam polarized in the second orientation. It is also presented a corresponding method, computer program and computer program product.

The disclosure relates to a method, performed in a multi-antenna radio access node comprising four logical antenna ports mapped to corresponding physical antennas, of transmitting data using three physical antennas. The method comprises determining (S51) loss of data transmission from one physical antenna of the four physical antennas. A required multi-antenna transmission scheme is determined (S52). An antenna mapping matrix prestored in the radio access node is selected (S53), the selected antenna mapping matrix adapted to the required multi-antenna transmission scheme. Data on the four logical antenna ports are re-mapped (S54) to the remaining three physical antennas by using the selected antenna mapping matrix, whereupon the data is transmitted (S55) from the remaining three physical antennas.

A method and a radio network node for assisting in a handover of a user equipment from a first cell to a second cell as well as a method and a user equipment for handling the handover are disclosed. The radio network node sends an indication to the user equipment, wherein the indication indicates whether or not to use a same first codebook subset restriction bitmap in the second cell as in the first cell. Moreover, the user equipment receives the indication from the radio network node.

A base station module configured to be part of a group of base station modules comprising the base station module and other base station modules, the group of base station modules together forming a base station, and having antennas for receiving radio signals from mobile stations in a base station communication band, a communication interface for transferring data obtained via the received radio signals to the other base station modules and for receiving corresponding data from the other base station module, a data handling unit selects data for transfer to the other base station modules and an uplink data processing unit processes channels used by a subset of the mobile stations communicating with the base station, where the subset is assigned to the base station module. The base station module uses the data received from the other base station modules to influence processing in the uplink data processing unit.

Systems and methods are disclosed for utilizing unused bit resources to convey restrictions on parameters evaluated for a feedback report in a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless communication system. In one embodiment, a method of operation of a transmitting node in a wireless network includes transmitting a feedback restriction indicator to a receiving node, where the feedback restriction indicator is an unused bit resource in one or more instances of a control channel that is indicative of one or more desired restrictions on parameters to be evaluated by the receiving node for a feedback report to be provided from the receiving node. The method of operation of the transmitting node further includes receiving the feedback report from the receiving node, where the feedback report is limited according to the feedback restriction indicator.
