    摘要: The present invention provides a solution to the problem concerning how to associate uplink packet data to the originating mobile station in order to be able to direct downlink packet data transmissions to the correct mobile station when using adaptive antennas. A packet scheduler signals the uplink and downlink scheduling information to a direction of arrival (DOA) estimating- or beam selection algorithm, and specifies a DOA- or beam selection algorithm for every mobile station instead of for every timeslot. The received information, i.e. the angular and/or spatial samples of signal strength and signal quality etc. is stored in a physical context memory. It is possible to use adaptive antennas in a system carrying e.g. GPRS/EGPRS traffic.

    摘要: The present invention relates to methods for performing uplink scheduling of packet data when using adaptive antennas. In the solution according to the invention the uplink scheduling information is transmitted in an antenna beam towards the mobile for which the scheduling information is intended and by allocating mobile stations with similar position to the same packet data channel. All other data packets are transmitted in an antenna beam towards the mobile station for which the data are intended. By adopting the proposed solution it is possible to efficiently use adaptive antennas in a system carrying e.g. GPRS/EGPRS traffic. The carrier to interference gain introduced by adaptive antennas produces a pronounced increase in system performance.

    摘要: The present invention relates generally to the problems associated with sectorization of cells in cellular communications systems, and more particularly to interference between sectors. The invention provides the possibility of flexibly distributing hardware between sectors in a cell by allowing one transmitter to be shared by all the sectors. Since a beacon signal must be transmitted to each sector in a cell, it can be combined with the signal from the transmitter before being transmitted from an antenna. Thus it is necessary to only deploy one carrier for the beacon. Interference reduction in sectored sites is also improved. In addition, different antenna patterns may be combined to provide the site with all kinds of coverage patterns. Downlink diversity is furthermore attainable by having overlapping uncorrelated antenna patterns.
