摘要： Apparatus and methods are disclosed. The apparatus is for providing an indication of frequency bands of transmissions being received by a wireless receiver and comprises: a detection unit operable to determine the frequency bands of transmissions being received by the wireless receiver; and a beacon unit operable to generate a beacon signal for transmission to a transmission apparatus, the beacon signal providing an indication of the frequency bands of transmissions being received by the wireless receiver. This enables frequency bands which are not being received by the wireless receiver to be identified for reuse and avoids the risk of interfering with the wireless transmissions being received by the wireless receiver. This helps to increase the extent of frequency reuse that is possible, whilst minimising the potential for interfering with transmissions being received by the wireless receivers. Also, if the power of the beacon signal is similar to the expected power of the reuse transmissions, then if the beacon signal can be received and decoded by a device, it is likely that a transmission from that device could interfere with the wireless receiver.

摘要： A telecommunications network node and methods are disclosed. The method is for generating, by genetic programming, evolved algorithms for adjusting base station transmission power to control coverage of a cell to assist in providing desired base station operating characteristics. The method comprises the steps of: generating, using predetermined functions and terminals defined in a functions and terminals list, a plurality of evolved algorithms each of which determine whether, for any particular base station operating conditions, to adjust said base station transmission power; determining a fitness level indicative of each evolved algorithm's ability to adjust base station transmission power to control coverage to achieve said desired base station operating characteristics under expected operating conditions; and iteratively performing said steps of generating and determining to generate further evolved algorithms using at least one of said evolved algorithms determined to have achieved a particular fitness level. In this way, it can be seen that algorithms can be assembled and then tested to see how suitable they are at controlling base station power to achieve particular operating characteristics under particular operating conditions. Those algorithms which are determined to be the best at achieving those characteristics under those particular operating conditions may then be used to generate further algorithms which, in turn, are also then assessed. Hence, those individual algorithms which are suited to the operating characteristics and the operating conditions can rapidly be generated thereby avoiding the need to manually design new algorithms which are specialised to particular environments.

摘要： A base station, a method and a computer program product are disclosed. The base station is operable, in concert with other base stations within a group, to support wireless communications with user equipment. The base station comprises: transmission logic operable to generate a cell having a coverage area supporting wireless communications with user equipment; reception logic operable to receive load information indicative of a user equipment communications load experienced by base stations within said group; and coverage area adjustment logic operable to determine changes required to said coverage area to change a user equipment communications load experienced by at least one base station within said group. In this way, it can be seen that each base station within the group may receive information about the user loading on other base stations within that group and is able to adjust its coverage area to cause that communications loading to be rebalanced to enable efficient use of resources and optimise the overall performance of each of the base stations within the group. The group of base stations with co-ordinated and optimised coverage can achieve higher end user data rates and improved quality of service than would otherwise be possible.
