摘要:
The present invention relates to a base station and a method in a mobile communication network comprising means for transmitting information to User Equipments (UEs), on a first channel and means for transmitting data packets to said UEs on a second channel. The timing of the first channel and second channel is overlapping, and the base station comprises menas for setting individual power levels of the first channel for each scheduled UE. The base station according to the present invention comprises means for setting the power level of the second channel for a first scheduled UE based on the power level setting for the first channel for at least a subsequently scheduled second UE based on an early UE scheduling decision.

Users of a given service in a wireless communication system that includes a plurality of multi-service subsystems are allocated to one of the subsystems in accordance with a combined capacity region of the wireless communication system. The combined capacity region is determined based upon capacity regions of each of the plurality of multi-service subsystems. The capacity regions of the plurality of multi-service subsystems are determined using a relative decrease in users of a first service as a function of an increase in users of a second service.

The present invention provides a method, apparatus and system for handling unreliable feedback information in a wireless network. The present invention adjusts one or more communications (202) with a receiving unit (272) in a wireless communication network by receiving feedback information (302) relating to the receiving unit (102), determining a feedback information offset for the receiving unit (272), and adjusting the one or more communications (202) with the receiving unit (272) based on the feedback information and the feedback information offset (306).

The invention provides methods method for access selection in a Multi-Access Network offering a plurality of Access Technologies (AT). The device may comprises a Multi Access Management entity (MAM) and a plurality of Generic Link Layer Entities (GLL) associated to a plurality of Accesses (A) according to said plurality of Access Technologies (AT). The access selection comprises an Access determination and an Access configuration. In a first step a Generic Link Layer Entity (GLL) determines one or more Generic Performance Metrics (GPM) corresponding to one or more configurations of the Access (A). The Generic Link Layer Entity (GLL) sends the determined one or more Generic Performance Metrics (GPM) corresponding to one or more configurations of the access (A) to the Multi Access Management entity (MAM). The Multi Access Management entity (MAM) determines from received Generic Performance Metrics (GPM), which Access (A) offers a configuration (GPM), which is suited for an application / bearer requirements. Then, said Multi Access Management entity (MAM) sends the determined configuration to the Generic Link Layer Entity (GLL) associated to the determined Access (A). The determined Generic Link Layer Entity (GLL) configures the Access (A) based on the determined configuration received from the Multi Access Management entity (MAM). Furthermore, the invention relates to corresponding devices, modules and software.
摘要:
A multi-resource management entity is described herein which optimizes access to at least one access network that is located in a multi-access network environment by performing the following steps: (a) obtaining information about a potentially required access resource of one of the at least one access networks; (b) determining that more than a certain number of user networks may potentially use the access resource to establish a connection with the one access network; (c) obtaining information indicating an availability of the access resource; and (d) limiting a number of the user networks that may potentially access the access resource in view of the obtained availability information.
摘要:
The present invention relates to communications systems comprising multiple access technologies, and more especially it relates to access technology allocation of communications in such communications systems. Particularly, it relates to allocation of a plurality of communication flows to one or more of a plurality of access technologies avail able in the communications system. Access selection based upon stored one or more preference values is disclosed.

The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for making a handover decision in a multi-access communication network comprising a core network (30) and at least one user terminal network (10) communicating with said core network (30) on at least two access paths (a, b) via at least two access networks (20a, 20b), whereby data sessions are routed on at least a first access path (a) via a first access network (20a) and a second access path (b) via a second access network (20b). A first set of criteria is determined by an Access Network control Function (ANF) (25a, 25b) for when a handover between said at least two access paths (a, b) should be performed and a report is sent to an Access Selection Function (ASF) (34) when at least one criterion of said first set of criteria is fulfilled. A second set of criteria is determined by a Connection Management Function (CMF) (14) for when a handover between said at least two access paths (a, b) should be performed and a report is sent to the ASF (34) when at least one criterion of said second set of criteria is fulfilled. The ASF (34) determines one or more data sessions of said at least one user terminal network (10) to be handed over based on the sent reports and directs a core network anchor (32) and a terminal anchor (12) to execute a handover by re-routing said determined data sessions from one access path (a, b) to an alternative access path (a, b).

The invention is directed towards determining an access node (14, 16) for a terminal (18) in a network (10) having one or more access nodes capable of providing access to the terminal based on one or more access technologies. Access node is selected through determining whether at least one network parameter provided by a network node (12, 14, 16) is required as input for the access node selection for the terminal. If it is determined that the at least one network parameter is required as input, the network parameter is obtained and an access node possibly together with access type for the terminal is selected at least based on said network parameter.
摘要:
A mobile ambient network (MAN) negotiator 106 is provided for negotiating with ambient access networks (AANs) 102 on behalf of a MAN 104 to select a particular AAN to handle a wireless communication session for the MAN. The MAN is, e.g., either a user terminal (UT) or a private area network (PAN). The negotiations performed by the MAN negotiator on behalf of the MAN include establishing a secure, trusted relationship between the MAN and the AAN, as well as negotiating costs, billing arrangements and the like. The MAN negotiator communicates with the MAN via a dedicated wireless communication channel but preferably communicates with the AANs via non-wireless, i.e. fixed, connections.
