Abstract:
The invention relates to methods and devices for supporting configuration of a measurement gap pattern for a user equipment requiring measurement gaps for performing an inter-frequency measurement. A radio network node receives an indication from the user equipment that the user equipment is going to perform an inter-frequency measurement for positioning, which inter-frequency measurement requires measurement gaps. The radio network node may determine a measurement gap pattern for performing the inter-frequency measurement and may signal, to the user equipment, information to initiate use of the determined measurement gap pattern in the user equipment. Alternatively the user equipment configures the measurement gap pattern itself based on a set of pre-defined rules.
Abstract:
Methods (100) and apparatuses (12, 24, 38) taught herein advantageously facilitate use of timing measurements in wireless communication networks (10) where radio signal timing measurements involve signals at different carrier frequencies. The methods and apparatuses in particular compensate such timing measurements for expected discrepancies in the measurements that arise from frequency-dependent differences in the propagation behavior of the radio signals being measured. In a non-limiting example, measurements at two or more frequencies may be compensated for the frequency distance between those frequencies, or with respect to a reference frequency. In such cases, timing measurements determined for one or more other radio signals are compensated as a function of the frequency distance between the reference frequency and the frequencies of such other radio signals.
Abstract:
A method in a network node for performing network tasks based on a user equipment trajectory includes the network node receiving cell change information from a user equipment wherein the cell change information further includes user equipment trajectory data based on cell parameters of visited cells in a user equipment trajectory. The method in a user equipment for collecting cell change information associated with a cell change includes the user equipment storing the cell change information within the user equipment. The cell change information is sent to the network node for performing network tasks.
Abstract:
Embodiments relate to device-to-device (D2D) communications in a communications network (1), wherein the communications network (1) comprises a first user equipment (10), a first radio network node (14) serving the first user equipment (10), a second user equipment (12). and a D2D capable radio network node (18,18). The first user equipment (TO) is configured to recognize a second user equipment (12) to have a D2D communication with and to perform a cell change from the first radio network node (14) to the D2D capable radio network node (16,18), when the first radio network node (14) does not have D2D capability.
Abstract:
Wireless communication network terminal operation is disclosed. The network comprises wireless network nodes having first and second downlink transmission modes. The first mode involves normal operation of a particular network node and is applicable when a number of active terminals in a cell associated with the particular network node is greater than a first mode threshold value. The second mode involves restricted downlink transmission of the particular network node and is applicable when the number of active terminals in the cell associated with the particular network node is not greater than a second mode threshold value. A cell identity is detected for a cell associated with a wireless network node of the wireless communication system. A current downlink transmission mode of the node is detected as the first or second downlink transmission mode, and an operation of the terminal is adapted based on the detected current downlink transmission mode.
