Abstract:
A master base station comprises: a controller configured to notify a secondary base station of information for indicating whether a user plane architecture in dual connectivity is an architecture in which a SCG (Secondary Cell Group) bearer is used or an architecture in which a split bearer is used. The SCG bearer is a bearer which goes via both a serving gate way and the secondary base station without going via the master base station. The split bearer is a bearer which goes via both the serving gate way and the master base station, and which is split in a PDCP (Packet Data Convergence Protocol) layer of the master base station, and One split path of the split bearer goes via the secondary base station, and another split path of the split bearer does not goes via the secondary base station.
Abstract:
A user terminal comprises: a receiver configured to: receive first information for a Device to Device (D2D) discovery procedure for discovering a proximity terminal, from a serving cell; and receive second information for the D2D discovery procedure from another cell of another frequency different from a frequency of the serving cell in order to receive a discovery signal by the D2D discovery procedure in the another frequency from another user terminal.
Abstract:
An eNB 200 transmits a broadcast control signal commonly applied to all UEs 100 in a cell of the eNB 200 and an dedicated control signal dedicatedly applied to a UE 100 in the cell. A UE 100 receives the broadcast control signal and the dedicated control signal. The broadcast control signal includes a plurality of D2D resource information. Each of the plurality of D2D resource information indicates a radio resource available for the D2D communication. The dedicated control signal includes instruction information for instructing a use of a radio resource indicated by specific D2D resource information, out of the plurality of D2D resource information.
Abstract:
A user terminal sets desired terminal information for designating a desired user terminal that is desired to be a communication partner of D2D communication, and the user terminal limits scanning of a discovery signal until determining that the desired terminal information is included in the discovery signal information notified from a network apparatus.
Abstract:
A communication control method according to the present invention comprises: notifying, by the base station, the at least one or more communication devices of reference signal configuration information designating a parameter of the uplink reference signal; transmitting, by the user terminal, the uplink reference signal to the base station; and receiving, on the basis of the reference signal configuration information, by the at least one or more communication devices, the uplink reference signal transmitted from the user terminal; and measuring, on the basis of the received uplink reference signal, by the at least one or more communication devices, a channel state between the at least one or more communication devices and the user terminal.
Abstract:
When a UE 100-2 (a reception-side UE) that performs D2D communication by using UL radio resource switches communication modes between cellular communication and the D2D communication, if DL subframe in which data reception of the cellular communication should be performed and the UL subframe in which data reception of the D2D communication should be performed at least partially overlap on a time axis, then the UE 100-2 performs data reception in one subframe, out of the overlapping two subframes.
Abstract:
A base station according to a first aspect is configured to transmit a radio signal to a user terminal in an own cell by using a plurality of transmission antennas. The base station comprises: a controller configured to notify the user terminal of a multi-antenna transmission mode to be applied to a transmission of the radio signal; and a transmitter configured to transmit the radio signal by using the plurality of transmission antennas by the multi-antenna transmission mode notified to the user terminal. The controller reduces a number of transmission antennas to be used for the transmission of the radio signal so as to reduce power consumption of the base station. The controller maintains the multi-antenna transmission mode notified to the user terminal without changing the multi-antenna transmission mode, even when reducing the number of transmission antennas to be used for the transmission of the radio signal.
Abstract:
A mobile communication system supports cellular communication in which a data path passes through a core network and D2D communication that is direct device-to-device communication in which the data path does not pass through the core network. The system comprises a communication apparatus that assigns a radio resource to a D2D terminal that performs the D2D communication, wherein the communication apparatus performs assignment determination as to whether a dedicated radio resource not shared with the cellular communication is assigned to the D2D terminal or a shared radio resource shared with the cellular communication is assigned to the D2D terminal.
Abstract:
A communication control method is a method for performing an offload from a cellular RAN to a wireless LAN. The communication control method includes the steps of: transmitting a list which contains identifiers of wireless LAN access points included in the wireless LAN, by a cellular base station included in the cellular RAN; receiving the list, by a user terminal which has a cellular communication unit and a wireless LAN communication unit; and performing an operation related to the offload after detecting that the user terminal approaches a wireless LAN access point on the basis of the list, by the user terminal which exists in a cell of the cellular base station.
Abstract:
A mobile communication system performs multi-antenna transmission by applying a pre coder matrix for determining transmission directionality. The mobile communication system comprises a user terminal that starts feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a node in response to an instruction from the node controlling communication. The predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide the precoder matrix that is applied to transmission to another user terminal different from the user terminal. The user terminal comprises: a control unit that switches whether to stop the feedback after starting the feedback in response to the instruction.
