    摘要: For wireless networks that transmit synchronization signals allowing user equipment to synchronize to cells within the network and transmit reference signals allowing user equipment to determine cell identities, a method and apparatus taught herein advantageously link the synchronization signal sequences to the reference signal sequences according to a defined mapping. The linking simplifies the cell search process by allowing user equipment to determine cell identities based on mapping detected synchronization signal sequences to the corresponding reference signal or to the corresponding subset of reference signals in embodiments where there are more reference signal sequences than synchronization signal sequences. In at least one embodiment, the network is a 3G LTE network and at least the Primary Synchronization Signal (P-SyS) sequences are linked to the Downlink (DL) reference symbol sequences according to a defined mapping, thereby allowing to user equipment to determine cell identities from detected P-SyS sequences.

    摘要: A method of supporting frequency-selective repeaters (eNodeRs) in a wireless telecommunication system. A base station (eNodeB) classifies User Equipments (UEs) into two categories or lists of users: a white list containing UEs that may need the assistance of repeaters, and a black list containing UEs that do not need repeater assistance. The eNodeB transmits one of these two lists to the eNodeRs. The eNodeRs do not amplify resource blocks (RBs) scheduled for black list UEs. Each repeater may decide on its own whether to amplify signals for a non-black list UE by measuring signals from the UE and comparing them with predefined criteria.

    摘要: A wireless communication node (10) dynamically estimates passive intermodulation (PIM) interference coupled into the node's receive path from the transmission of a composite signal through the node's transmit path. The node (10) then cancels the estimated PIM interference in the receive path. In some embodiments, the node dynamically estimates the PIM interference as a function of the composite signal that models PIM interference generation and coupling in the node (10) according to one or more coefficients (30). The coefficients (30) may be determined by transmitting a test signal (34) during a test stage, when the node (10) is not scheduled to receive any signal. Later, when the composite signal (18) is transmitted, the node (10) uses the coefficients (10) to dynamically estimate and cancel the resulting PIM interference.

    摘要: A Radio Base Station (RBS) and method of operating the same are provided. The RBS may enable a fast and flexible reconfiguration of the system from a first configuration to a second confirmation where the RBS is triggered to initiate a system reconfiguration and the reconfiguration is performed by starting a new cell with the wanted new configuration in parallel with the original cell. During a certain time period, both the original and the new cell are available. Thereafter, the original cell is shut down. The time offset between the start up of the new cell and the shut down of the original cell may be long enough to ensure that user equipment associated with the original cell can be handed over or can reselect the new cell. The time offset may be short enough to reduce the interference between the original and new cells.

    摘要: According to some embodiments, a method in a user equipment (920) is provided. According to the method, the user equipment receives, over a first cell (970) configured on a carrier frequency, at least one parameter associated with a second cell (980) configured on a carrier frequency. The at least one parameter comprises a cell identity. The user equipment (920) then derives (1050) at least one physical layer characteristic for the second cell (980) based on the received at least one parameter. Thereby, the user equipment (920) is able to receive transmissions over the second cell (980), even if it could not initially detect the presence of the cell.
