Abstract:
The present invention provides a carrier aggregation capability reporting apparatus and method, so as to prevent UE from repeatedly reporting capability information corresponding to a carrier combination supported by the UE, and reduce waste of signaling resources used for reporting. The method in the present invention includes: determining, by user equipment UE, information about a carrier combination supported by the UE and information about a sub-combination that is of the carrier combination and that is supported by the UE; and reporting, by the UE to a base station, the determined information about the carrier combination supported by the UE and the determined information about the sub-combination that is of the carrier combination and that is supported by the UE.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a paging message sending method, a paging message receiving method, and a device. A base station sends, to UE, configuration information of a first paging resource reserved by a core network for the UE. When the base station performs paging area paging on the UE, the base station sends, on the first paging resource, a first paging message to the UE. In the embodiments, all multiple cells included in a paging area use the first paging resource to perform paging area paging, and all the multiple cells use same paging scrambling code to scramble the first paging message when sending the first paging message.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a group communication method and an apparatus. A base station is provided, including: a processor, configured to determine to start scheduling PTM transmission in a first cell, where the scheduling PTM transmission is used to enable UE in the first cell to receive data on a scheduling PTM transmission resource; and a transmitter, configured to: send configuration information of the scheduling PTM transmission to the UE in the first cell, where the configuration information is used to enable the UE in the first cell to receive data according to an indication of the configuration information; and send, on the scheduling PTM transmission resource, data according to the indication of the configuration information.
Abstract:
Provided are a system for implementing multiple Radio Access Networks (RANs) convergence and a method thereof. The method includes: an anchor RAN establishes a connection with a User Equipment (UE); the anchor receives a RAB establishment request from a Core Network (CN); the anchor RAN selects an auxiliary RAN; the anchor RAN sends quality of service (QoS) parameters to the auxiliary RAN, so that the auxiliary RAN establishes a connection with the UE according to the QoS parameters, while the anchor RAN keep the connection with the UE. With the methods provided in embodiments for the present disclosure, multiple RANs convergence is implemented, and the UE establishes connections with the anchor RAN and the auxiliary RAN at the same time, so as to improve the peak rate of the UE.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a data scheduling method using an unlicensed spectrum, an apparatus, and a device, and relates to the radio communications field. According to the method, apparatus, and device, an unlicensed spectrum resource can be effectively used, thereby meeting a bandwidth requirement of an LTE device. The method is as follows: first, an unlicensed-spectrum serving cell is configured for user equipment by using a configuration message of the unlicensed-spectrum serving cell; then, data is transmitted over the unlicensed-spectrum serving cell by using a scheduling command. Embodiments of the present disclosure are applied to data transfer over the unlicensed-spectrum serving cell.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method for obtaining unlicensed frequency information and a device. The method includes: receiving, by the UE, third indication information sent by the base station, where the third indication information is used to enable the UE to obtain use information of the unlicensed frequency and report use information, obtained within a preset time, of the unlicensed frequency; obtaining, by the UE, the use information of the unlicensed frequency according to the third indication information; and reporting the use information, obtained within the preset time, of the unlicensed frequency to the base station. By means of the method, the base station can obtain related information of an unlicensed frequency by using the UE. Therefore, the UE can perform communication by properly using the unlicensed frequency.
