Abstract:
This document discloses a solution of interference coordination in wireless communication systems where a base station may request a specified load report from another base station. A first base station may store load information of terminal devices associated with the identifier of strongest interference source for each terminal device. The first base station may receive a load report request from a second base station. The first base station may respond to the second base station with a load report including load information of only terminal devices whose strongest interference source is the second base station. The second base station may receive the load report further and provide communication resources on the basis of the received load report.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to techniques for adaptively controlling and optimizing radio configuration parameters by using a dual control algorithm. The dual control algorithm includes first and second control algorithms, each of which is executed independently whenever certain one or more trigger events occur. The first control algorithm is used for obtaining one or more User Equipment (UE) clusters and a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) requirement for each UE cluster based on UE information, while the second control algorithm is used for obtaining optimized radio configuration parameters for each UE cluster in accordance with the KPI requirement. The second control algorithm is also configured to monitor its performance and, if its performance degrades, send an associated signal to the first control algorithm. The occurrence of such a signal is among the trigger events that cause the execution of the first control algorithm.

Abstract:
A technique includes making a decision to perform a handover of a user device from a source cell to a target cell at a scheduled handover time, determining, by a source base station associated with the source cell, an estimated data rate for transmitting data from the source cell to the user device between a time of the handover decision and the scheduled handover time, determining, based on the estimated data rate and a difference between the time of the handover decision and the scheduled handover time, a portion of data stored in a data buffer associated with the source cell for the user device to be forwarded to the target cell before the scheduled handover time, and forwarding, from the source cell to the target cell before the scheduled handover time, the portion of data stored in the data buffer for the user device.
