摘要:
Embodiments herein relate to a method in a radio base station (12) for providing radio coverage to a user equipment (10). The radio base station (12) comprises at least two radio antenna ports; a first antenna port (AP 11) associated with a first physical antenna and a second antenna port (AP 12) associated with a second physical antenna. The first antenna port (AP 11) is arranged to provide a radio coverage over a first area (14) and the second antenna port (AP 12) is arranged to provide a radio coverage over a second area (17). The radio base station (12) broadcasts a signal with system information over the first area (14) enabling the radio base station (12) to connect to the user equipment (10). The radio base station (12) also determines that a user equipment (10) in the first area (14) is to receive or transmit data. The radio base station (12) then obtains information related to a position of the user equipment (10) in the first area (14). The radio base station (12) then sets a characteristic of the second physical antenna based on the obtained information. Thereby to the radio base station provides radio coverage to the user equipment (10) via the second port (AP12).
摘要:
The present invention relates a User Equipment, UE (204) and a Radio Base Station (202, 206) and methods therein for contention resolution in general. Based on measured and analyzed measurements of a radio connection establishment response from each of at least a first and a second Radio Base Station, a UE receiving said radio connection establishment response can resolve the contention by selecting a RBS based on the received power of a set of DL reference signals as received by the UE, of the received power of the radio connection establishment responses, on timing of the received sets of reference signals, on timing of the radio connection establishment responses, on historic RBS selections, on priority level of the RBS, to mention a few alternatives.

This invention pertains in general to the field of establishment of radio connection in a communication system. More particularly the invention relates to establishing a radio connection in a communication system. By broadcasting Random Access Channel related system information, user equipments can send a RACH request and receive a set of DL demodulation reference signals associated with a DL control channel.

Devices and methods are provided for adapting the allocating of random access resources to user equipments of a cell served by a base station. A method in a base station where each RA preamble group maps or corresponds to an uplink allocation size comprises receiving a RA preamble from a UE in a cell served by the base station, the preamble indicating a requested resource allocation size for uplink transmission of UE data. Radio resource usage in the cell is monitored and a mapping between groups of RA preambles and uplink allocation sizes configured for the cell is adapted based on the monitored usage of radio resources. UEs or MTC devices are thus provided with an efficient means to have their UL allocation needs met for transmission of user data in conjunction with the Random Access procedure.

The present disclosure relates to User Equipments, UEs or Machine Type Communication, MTC (104, 202, 302, 304, 700) devices and base stations (102, 204, 306, 600) and methods therein for adapting the allocating of random access resources to user equipments of a cell served by a base station. A method in a base station (102, 204, 306, 600) where each RA preamble group maps or corresponds to an uplink allocation size, comprises receiving a RA preamble from a UE in a cell served by the base station, the preamble indicating a requested resource allocation size for uplink transmission of UE data. Radio resource usage (S-348, 402) in the cell is monitored and a mapping between groups of RA preambles and uplink allocation sizes (S-356, 412) configured for the cell is adapted based on the monitored usage of radio resources. UEs or MTC devices are thus provided with an efficient means to have their UL allocation needs for transmission of user data in conjunction with step 3 of the Random Access procedure met.

A method in a communication device (120) for reducing power consumption in the communication device (120) is provided. The communication device (120) and a base station (110) are comprised in a cellular communications network (100). The communication device obtains information about an antenna beam (117) of the base station (110). The antenna beam (117) will be perceived by the communication device (120) in time periods. The information relates to when in time a time period starts and the duration of the time period. When being out of the time period, the communication device refrains from attempting to receive or transmit data using the antenna beam (117). During the refraining no power is consumed for attempting to receive or transmit data using the antenna beam (117).

The present invention relates to a user equipment and a radio base station, and to related methods of enabling contention-based uplink transmission. The method comprises the steps of determining (210) configuration information for at least one contention-based uplink transmission opportunity, transmitting (220) the configuration information to at least one user equipment, and for each of the at least one contention-based uplink transmission opportunity, transmitting (230) an access control signal to the at least one user equipment, indicating whether contention-based uplink transmission is allowed for the opportunity.

A method in a user equipment (110) and a user equipment (110) for setting a timeout value, indicative of a duration during which a value related to radio transmissions is to be reused by the user equipment, are provided. The user equipment obtains a timeout value, which is based on mobility information indicating mobility of the user equipment. Then, the user equipment sets the timeout value. Furthermore, a method in a radio network node (120) and a radio network node (120) for setting a timeout value, indicative of a duration during which a value related to radio transmissions is to be reused by the radio network node, are provided. The radio network node obtains a timeout value, which is based on mobility information indicating mobility of the user equipment. Then, the radio network node sets the timeout value for the user equipment.
摘要:
A radio communication system and a method for assigning a short-lived Cell Radio Network Temporary Identifier, “CRNTI”, to a first user equipment performing random access to a radio network node are provided. The radio communication system registers the first user equipment as connected to the radio network node. A message for synchronizing the radio network node and the first user equipment with respect to the first time period is transferred. After the first time period has elapsed, the radio communication system maintains the first user equipment connected to the radio network node, and allows the short-lived CRNTI to be assigned to a second user equipment.
