摘要:
A method and an apparatus are disclosed, wherein a configuration of at least one channel monitoring related timer is defined such that the effective value of the channel monitoring related timer is mapped to a coverage enhancement CE level. The apparatus performs monitoring of downlink control channel sub-frames transmitted from a network element to a terminal device, according to said configuration of the channel monitoring related timer.

There is provided a method including receiving, at a secondary cell, mapping information from a primary cell and using the mapping information to associate a connection request with a user equipment associated with the secondary cell.
摘要:
A communication is executed between a user equipment and a communication network based on carrier aggregation using a first group of at least two PUCCH groups, the first group including a primary serving cell that carries a first PUCCH, and first serving cells which use the first PUCCH, and a second group of the at least two PUCCH groups, the second group including a secondary serving cell that carries a second PUCCH, and second serving cells which use the second PUCCH. In case a predetermined condition occurs, the communication is continued by exchanging the first group by the second group wherein the secondary serving cell that carries the second PUCCH becomes the primary serving cell and vice versa.
摘要:
A method includes determining if a user equipment is to be handed over to a target radio access node and if said user equipment suffers co-existence interference, and providing a message to be sent to said target radio access node, said message including interference information indicating that said user equipment suffers co-existence interference.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products of PRACH selection and random access response (RAR) detection are provided. One method includes specifying, by a network node, a starting point for preamble repetition having a repetition level such that all user equipment (UEs) of the same repetition level start the preamble repetition on a same physical random access channel (PRACH) resource, determining when a series of the preamble repetition is over, and transmitting a random access response (RAR) when the repetition series is finished.
摘要:
A user equipment uses extended discontinuous reception (DRX) when the user equipment is in connected mode with a communication network. The extended DRX comprises extended DRX cycles and offsets, which are based on a value of a specific DRX cycle. The user equipment receives (S31) signaling from the communication network, the signaling comprising an extended DRX cycle indication and offset value, calculates (S32) an extended DRX cycle from the extended DRX cycle indication and an offset from the offset value, using the value of the specific DRX cycle, and executes (S33) the DRX when the user equipment is in the connected mode with the extended DRX cycle calculated and the offset calculated.
摘要:
A method comprises causing a first key to be used for communications between a first base station and a user device, said user device also being in communication with a second base station, causing first information, which indicates that an updated key is to be used, to be sent from the first base station to said user equipment, and causing said updated key to be used for communications between said first base station and said user device after said information has been sent.
