摘要:
Example embodiments presented herein are directed towards a first radio node (400), and corresponding methods therein, for determining a bandwidth of a second radio node (402). The first and second radio nodes are configured for use in a communications network. The bandwidth is determined based on a correlation between a signal received form the second radio node and at least one known signal which are transmittable on one or more known radio resources. Such bandwidth determination eliminates the need for the wireless terminal to receive such information via system information broadcasted from a cell.

Systems and methods related to effective measurements in a cellular communications network are disclosed. In one embodiment, a network node obtains a reference measurement performed by a measuring node, where the reference measurement contains one or more interference components. The reference measurement may be, for instance, a reference signal quality measurement or a reference signal power measurement. The network node then mitigates at least one of the interference components contained in the reference measurement to thereby provide an effective measurement for the measuring node. In one embodiment, the network node mitigates the at least one interference component by obtaining a compensation value for mitigating the at least one interference component and applying the compensation value to the reference measurement to thereby provide the effective measurement.

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for estimating a signal by a wireless device in a wireless communication system. The wireless device obtains a scaling factor that describes a relation between signal estimates for first and second signals of a first type. The wireless device further obtains a reference signal estimate that comprises a signal estimate for a first signal of a second type. The wireless device then selectively determines at the wireless device a signal estimate for a second signal of the second type by scaling the reference signal estimate by the scaling factor. The first signals of the first and second type are associated with a first radio network node. The second signals of the first and second type are associated with a second radio network node.

Methods in a radio network node for obtaining positioning QoS information and using the positioning QoS information, as well as corresponding radio network node apparatus, are disclosed. An example method begins with the receiving (220) of positioning QoS information for a target wireless device, such as a user equipment, UE. In some cases, for example, the positioning QoS information is received from a positioning node, using the LPPa protocol. The positioning QoS information may include, for example, a desired horizontal accuracy, a desired vertical accuracy, and a target response time. The received positioning QoS information is used (230) to configure uplink transmissions to be transmitted by the target wireless device, or to configure a receiver for reception of one or more uplink transmissions from the target wireless device, or both.

Example embodiments presented herein are directed towards improved means of collecting and handling non-real time measurements and/or non-real time data. According to some of the example embodiments, a first radio node (e.g., a collector node) is configured to transmit to a second radio node (e.g., a user equipment or any other node which may obtain measurements), a signal or message indicating an availability for collecting the non-real time measurements and/or non-real time data. The first radio node may further receive, from the second radio node, the non-real time measurements and/or non-real time data in response to the signal or message indicating the ability. Some of the example embodiments may be directed towards a second radio node configured to receive, from the second radio node, the signal or message indicating availability for collecting the non-real time measurements and/or non-real time data.

The present invention relates to a method in an LCS server of a wireless communication system, for positioning of an LCS target. The method comprises obtaining (510) information relating to a first predefined geographical area, wherein it has been determined that a probability that the LCS target is located within the first predefined geographical area is below a threshold. The method also comprises receiving (520) a request for a positioning of the LCS target, and using (530) the obtained information relating to the first predefined geographical area for the positioning of the LCS target.

A network node (44) herein advantageously eliminates or at least mitigates timing ambiguities associated with when a user equipment (36) is to perform assisted positioning measurements. To do so, the network node (44) generates assistance data to indicate that a first cell for the measurements (e.g., a reference cell) has a greater positioning occasion periodicity than it actually has. This greater periodicity may be, for example, a multiple of the first cell's actual positioning occasion periodicity. Regardless, the node (44) also generates the assistance data to indicate positioning occasion timing for at least a second cell relative to positioning occasion timing for the first cell that is based on this greater periodicity. Finally, the node (44) sends this generated assistance data to the user equipment to assist with the positioning measurements.

The embodiments herein relate to a method in a positioning node (1005) for handling measurements in a communications network (1000). The positioning node (1005) acquires information about a set of carrier frequencies. The information comprises information about at least a channel number and a bandwidth for each respective carrier frequencies in the set. The positioning node (1005) selects at least one carrier frequency based on the acquired information. The positioning node (1005) sends information about the selected at least one carrier frequency to a network node (101) or a target node (1003). The information further comprises at least a channel number and a bandwidth for the selected carrier frequency, enabling the first node (1001) to perform measurements for a target node (1003) using the selected carrier frequency.
