Abstract: Systems, methods, and processing nodes for scheduling resources for relay nodes in a wireless network include identifying a relay node attached to an access node in the wireless network, determining a transmit power associated with the relay node, and prioritizing resources allocated towards the relay node based on the transmit power. The transmit power includes a transmit power of a radio air interface deployed by the relay node.

Abstract: A method of allocating frequency bands of an access node includes determining a number of relay wireless devices attached to a donor access node neighboring the access node and transmitting to the access node information related to the number of relay wireless devices attached to the donor access node. An inter-frequency handover threshold of the access node is altered based at least in part on the information related to the number of relay wireless devices attached to the donor access node. Systems and methods relate to allocating frequency bands of an access node.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described herein include systems, methods, and nodes for selecting a donor for a relay wireless device using feedback. Signals may be scanned for at a relay wireless device to determine potential donor access nodes. The relay wireless device may communicate with the potential donor access nodes such that a power head room report is generated for each potential donor access node. A donor access node may be selected from among the potential donor access nodes based on the generated power head room reports. Backhaul data may be communicated between the relay wireless device with the selected donor access node.

Abstract: A relay node is enabled to transmit, to an end-user wireless device, any data packets remaining in a buffer associated with the end-user wireless device, prior to executing a handover of the end-user wireless device. Upon initiating a handover, the relay node adjusts a scheduling operation to use a lowest-possible modulating coding scheme (MCS) in order to transmit the remaining buffered data to the end-user wireless device. Moreover, the scheduling operation is adjusted to ignore any subsequent channel quality indicator (CQI) reports from the end-user wireless device, thereby ensuring that the end-user wireless device has a higher chance of receiving the data. When the buffer is empty, the handover is executed.

Abstract: Dedicating antenna elements to specific wireless devices by identifying specific wireless devices that meet a set of criteria, such as wireless devices using a certain application type that is associated with a bandwidth, and respectively dedicating a separate portion of antenna elements for communicating with each specific wireless device. The separate portion of antenna elements is selected based on being configured to utilize a bandwidth that meets a threshold bandwidth or matches the bandwidth associated with the application type.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described herein include systems, methods, and nodes for selecting a donor for a relay wireless device. Candidate signal arcs of a predetermined angle for a relay wireless device that do not meet an interference criteria are determined. Signals levels are scanned for the relay wireless device for signals received from a plurality of donor access nodes, the scanning iterating over the determined candidate signal arcs that do not meet the interference criteria. Candidate donor access nodes with a received signal level at the relay wireless device that meets a signal level criteria for each candidate signal arc based on the scanning are determined. And a donor access node is selected for the relay wireless device based on the determined candidate donor access nodes.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for configuring a handover threshold for wireless devices in a wireless network. A plurality of wireless devices operating in a radio range of an access node (AN) are instructed to report an actual maximum allowable transmit power value at the AN. The plurality of wireless devices are classified based on the reported actual maximum allowable transmit power value. Handover thresholds for the plurality of wireless devices are configured based on the classification.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and processing nodes for selecting a backhaul carrier for a relay node including instructing the relay node to attempt to attach to a guard band associated with a carrier that shares a characteristic of the preferred backhaul carrier. The characteristic can include a channel size threshold or a threshold frequency. A numerology of a communication channel within the guard band may be adjusted to enable the relay node to communicate with a donor access node using the guard band.

Abstract: A system for scheduling resources in a wireless network is provided. The system includes an access node configured to deploy a first radio air interface. The system also includes a relay node configured to attach to the first radio air interface and to deploy a second radio air interface to which one or more end-user wireless devices are attached. The system further includes a processor configured to perform operations including determining an indicator of congestion at the relay node, prioritizing traffic based on the indicator of congestion and a channel bandwidth between the relay node and the access node, and scheduling resources based on the prioritized traffic.

Abstract: A relay wireless device is configured to function as a relay on behalf of a donor access node. The relay wireless device determines a preferred donor access node from among a plurality of candidate donor access nodes based on a measurement of a reference signal, such as an RSRP or SINR, associated with each access node within a range of the relay wireless device. The access nodes may be prioritized based on the measurement, as well as based on a maximum number of dedicated random access preambles provided by each access node, and a default paging cycle of each access node. The access node that has the highest priority based on a good RSRP/SINR, a high number of dedicated random access preambles, and a large paging cycle, is selected as the preferred donor access node, and a connection request submitted to the preferred donor access node.
