Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for managing information of on/off small cells in a small cell-based network system and apparatuses for supporting the same. As an embodiment of the present invention, a method for managing information on on/off small cells in a radio access system supporting small cells comprises the steps of: receiving a first message including cell state change information of a first cell corresponding to a small cell, which is changed to an on state or an off state, by a second cell; and transmitting a second message including the cell state change information to a UE by the second cell. At this time, the cell state change information may contain identification information of the first cell, on/off time information indicating a time when change to an on state or an off state is made, and on/off timer information indicating a time interval in which the change to the on state or the off state is made.
Abstract:
A method of allocating resources according to the present invention comprises the steps of: allocating a signal having a first beam width from a first base station controlling a first cell to a predetermined resource; and allocating a signal, having a second beam width different from the first beam width, from a second base station controlling a second cell adjacent to the first cell to the resource. The signal having the first beam width may be a signal having a first priority, and the signal having the second beam width may be a signal having a second priority that is different from the first priority. Accordingly, a method for allocating resources is proposed which can stably receive signals even when a terminal that moves in a dense small cell structure is at a cell edge or a border region between cells.

A method and apparatus for reconfiguring device-to-device (D2D) connection information in a wireless communication system is provided. A first device is connected to a second device through a D2D connection. The first device receives a connection reconfiguration request message including at least one of a new quality of service (QoS) parameter, a new security information parameter, and a new D2D identifier, transmits a connection reconfiguration response message, which indicates whether to accept the request of the connection reconfiguration, to the response of the connection reconfiguration request message, and receives a connection reconfiguration confirm message.

Disclosed are a BBU power configuring method and a BBU which determine required power which is requested by a BBU to an RRH to transmit a downlink signal to a terminal based on RRH power headroom information in a cloud LAN environment in which the RRH and the BBU are separated and transmit a power allocation change request message for making a request for changing transmission power of other BBUs connected to the RRH to the other BBUs.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting signals by a transmitting side device having multiple antennas (hereinafter ‘N antennas’) is disclosed. In this method, the transmitting side device transmits reference signals (RSs) via M antenna among the N antennas, where M≦N, where one or more of M and a sequence of antenna numbers used for transmitting RSs informs a receiving side device of first information for data transmission, and where the RSs are used by the receiving side device for identifying second information for channel estimation. Transmitting side device transmits data to the receiving side device according to the first information.
Abstract:
A method for providing scalable service in a wireless communication system is disclosed. In this method, the transmitting side device transmits base layer signals and enhancement layer signals for one scalable service to a user equipment (UE) based on a HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) scheme. The base layer signals can be independently used at the UE without the enhancement layer signals. On the other hand, the enhancement layer signals cannot be used at the UE without the base layer signals. The transmitting side device also retransmits the base layer signals before a retransmission of the enhancement layer signals when there are both of the base layer signals and the enhancement layer signals to be retransmitted based on the HARQ scheme.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing transmit (Tx) power control in a convergence network of a plurality of communication systems. A method for performing transmit power control (TPC) in a plurality of communication system convergence networks includes receiving, by a first entity of a first communication system, a TPC information request message requesting information associated with transmit power control (TPC) from a second entity of a second communication system; upon receiving a request of the TPC information request message, transmitting a first TPC information reporting message, which includes a maximum transmit (Tx) power value of the first entity and an interference signal value caused by a neighbor entity of the first entity, to the second entity; receiving a TPC command message, which includes information of the maximum Tx power value of the first entity adjusted based on the maximum Tx power value of the first entity and the interference signal value, from the second entity; and adjusting the maximum Tx power value of the first entity based on the information regarding the adjusted maximum Tx power of the first entity.
Abstract:
A method of supporting communication using two or more heterogeneous radio access technologies (RAT) comprises: receiving a setup message providing instructions for access to a second base station in a second communication network supporting the second RAT from a first base station in a first communication network supporting a first RAT; and attempting to access the second base station. At this time, when the terminal successfully accesses the second base station, specific traffic type data are transmitted and received through the second base station, and data other than the specific traffic type can be transmitted and received through the first base station.
