摘要:
A radio network controller is operable in both a unicast signaling mode and a bi-cast signaling mode. In unicast signaling mode, the radio network controller is operable to send radio resource control signals to a mobile station through a serving cell. The radio network controller is operable to go into bi-cast signaling mode during a hard handover. In the bi-cast signaling mode, the radio network controller is operable to send radio resource control messages to the mobile station through both the current serving cell and a target cell. The mobile station is configured to listen to both the current serving cell and the target cell for radio resource control messages. User data, however, is transmitted only from the current serving cell to the mobile station.

Methods and apparatus for changing the transmission/reception setup of a base station (BS) in a communication network to another transmission/reception setup (such as one using fewer transmit antennas and/or lower channel bandwidths) without affecting communication with user equipments involve “replacing” the existing BS with a “virtual” BS that has the other transmission/reception setup. Replacement can be performed by, for example, ramping down the power of the existing, or first, BS, which has a respective first cell identification (ID), and simultaneously ramping up the power of the virtual, or second, BS, which has a respective second cell ID.

A technique for managing measurements for at least two subscriptions in a mobile terminal is described. A method implementation of this technique performed in the mobile terminal comprises the steps of determining a common carrier set being an intersection between the first carrier set associated with a first subscription and the second carrier set associated with at least one second subscription, performing a first measurement on the first carrier set, and the second measurement on the second carrier set excluding the common carrier set, and mapping results associated with the first measurement of the first subscription relating to the common carrier set to the at least one second subscription.
摘要:
A method of scheduling wireless data transmissions between a mobile terminal and a base station using multiple system carrier signals is disclosed. The method comprises receiving (101) in the mobile terminal information from the base station indicating available system carriers and transmitting from the mobile terminal information indicating the terminal's capability to handle non-contiguous system carriers; detecting (102) at least one dynamic parameter indicative of the terminal's current capability to handle non-contiguous system carriers; determining (103) from the dynamic parameter whether a situation has occurred in which the terminal's capability to handle non-contiguous system carriers has changed; transmitting (104), in such case, a connection release request to the base station; and transmitting (105) a connection setup request and information indicating the terminal's changed capability to handle non-contiguous system carriers to the base station. Thus system carriers that can be handled by the terminal in the present situation can be allocated.
摘要:
A adaptive method implemented by a mobile station improves the likelihood of detecting control messages transmitted to the mobile station in band on a shared downlink traffic channel. When the mobile station expects a control message to be transmitted on the shared downlink traffic channel, the mobile station may adapt the receiver configuration and/or receiver parameters to reduce a likelihood of missed detection of control messages. In one embodiment, the mobile station is configured to adjust a correlation threshold used for said scheduled transmission detection to reduce the likelihood of a missed detection.

A cell searching procedure is modified to enable a user terminal to determine whether a detected signal originates in a known cell or a new cell having the same cell identifier as the known cell. When a signal is detected, the user terminal determines the cell identifier and timing of the detected signal. If the cell identifier matches a known cell and the timing is outside the timing window of the known cell, the user terminal compares detected signal with a corresponding received signal received from the known cell having the same cell identifier as the detected signal source. The user terminal determines, based on said comparison, whether the detected signal is from the known cell or a new cell.
摘要:
Methods and arrangements in a first network node, a second radio network node and a mobile terminal for enabling estimation of a position of a mobile terminal are provided. The first network node receives a request for estimating the position of the mobile terminal. The first network node determines a first set of radio network nodes including the second radio network node and two additional radio network nodes. The first network node determines positioning signals for transmission from radio network nodes of the first set to the mobile terminal. The first network node instructs each of the radio network nodes of the first set to transmit the positioning signal, associated therewith, to the mobile terminal.

摘要:
Methods and devices in a wireless communication system are provided, in which a first portion and a second portion of signals are transmitted on a physical channel to a first transceiver from a second transceiver. A method for controlling transmission parameters in the wireless communication system comprises the steps of: transmitting an indication indicating that the first and the second receiver processing algorithms are used in the first transceiver to process the first and second portions, respectively, of signals received on the physical channel; receiving the indication at the second transceiver; and adjusting, at the second transceiver in response to the indication, a transmission parameter for at least one of the first and second portions of signals to be transmitted on the physical channel to the first transceiver. The indication could be transmitted from the first transceiver, or it could be determined through evaluations carried out at the second transceiver.
