Abstract:
A handover failure detection device (121) detects at least one of handover failure types regarding outgoing handover from a first cell (131) managed by a first base station (111) by observing: (a) presence/absence of reception by the first base station (111) of an acknowledgment response to a handover command regarding first handover of a mobile terminal (101) from the first cell (131) to a second cell (132) managed by a second base station (112); and (b) presence/absence of a request for connection re-establishment from the mobile terminal (101) to the first cell (131), the request occurring after initiation of the first handover. As a result, it contributes to improvement of handover failure detection or reduction of handover failure in a situation where exchange of information between base stations is restricted.
Abstract:
A method for estimating a network communication load without performing actual communication and a wireless communication terminal are provided. A wireless communication terminal (10) connectable to a network (NW) includes a load estimation section (14), and the load estimation section (14) estimates a communication load of the network NW by using a first quality index that does not depend on a network communication load and a second communication index that depends on a network communication load.
Abstract:
A radio communication system includes a first base station (11) that manages a first cell (110), a second base station (12) that manages a second cell (120), and a radio terminal (2). The radio terminal (2) supports dual connectivity involving a bearer split in which a first network bearer between the radio terminal (2) and a core network (3) is split over the first base station (11) and the second base station (12). The first base station (11) receives, from the second base station (12), bearer split status information about communication of the first network bearer in the second base station (12), and performs control of an access stratum related to the first network bearer. It is thus possible to contribute, for example, to an improvement in control of an access stratum when dual connectivity involving a bearer split is performed.

Abstract:
A radio terminal (1) receives a request and a radio configuration from a network (100) when the radio terminal (1) can connect to the network (100). The request requests transmission of the radio configuration. The radio configuration includes a radio parameter for sidelink communication (102) with a second radio terminal (2) which is in a state of being unable to connect to the network (100). The sidelink communication includes at least, one of direct discovery and direct communication. The radio terminal (1) is further configured to transmit the radio configuration in response to this request, and to perform the sidelink communication in accordance with the radio configuration with the second radio terminal (2) that has received the radio configuration. It is thus, for example, possible to contribute to improvement of the sidelink communication in the partial coverage.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a radio terminal (2) is used in a radio communication system (100) and communicates with a radio station (1). The radio terminal (2) includes a measurement unit (20). The measurement unit (20) operates to perform, using a terminal measurement procedure for executing a first terminal measurement corresponding to radio access technology applied to the radio communication system (100), a second terminal measurement of a shared frequency shared by a plurality of radio systems including the radio communication system (100). This embodiment therefore contributes to simplification of a measurement function which should be supported by the radio terminal when the radio communication system uses a shared frequency (e.g., TVWS) shared by the plurality of radio systems.

Abstract:
A method and a radio parameter control system, as well as a network operation management apparatus and a radio station, are provided that enable optimization control for problems varying with sites of occurrence. Using location information at the time of measurement included in a measurement report from a radio terminal (30) located in a radio cell (C10), quality indicators based on measurement information acquired by the radio terminals or the radio station are compiled in association with areas (Ai), each of which is smaller than the radio cell (C10), and control of a radio parameter is performed in the radio cell or across a plurality of radio cells, based on a result of compilation of the quality indicators for each area.
