摘要:
A femto cell neighbor list message for a wireless communication system that includes the frequencies and pseudonoise offsets reserved for macro cells and femto cells is disclosed. When the user equipment discovers the femto cell, the user equipment can read the Femto Cell Identification Message and present the identification information to the subscriber. In absence of this knowledge, a manual femto cell search must search all frequencies and all pseudonoise offsets resulting in lengthy search times.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate providing neighbor lists to devices comprising pilot frequencies of access points in a specific geographic region. Using the neighbor list, the devices can discover the access points based on scanning the frequencies for the pilot and can determine additional communication parameters from the discovery or based on a subsequent request resulting from discovery. In this regard, access point information need not be provisioned to the devices for locating the access points, selecting/reselecting the access points, providing the access points in a list to an interface, locating the device using triangulation based on GPS position of the access points, and/or the like.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate provisioning cell information to mobile devices via provisioning mechanisms. The cell information relates to cell characteristics within a wireless communication network. The cell information can be stored on the mobile devices and employed to detect the cell characteristics and adjust the handoff behavior based at least in part on characteristics of signals received from one or more base stations.

Cellular network may introduce a large number of limited access/limited range (“small”) base stations deployed by end-users such as home base nodes (HNBs) or Femtocells that provide access to access terminals (ATs) or user equipment (UE) to a core network. A selective discovery approach enables UE to discover and to use a small base station without wasting power to discover an alien base station or to search when not within range of any open small base station. Discovery can entail location-dependent determination (e.g., macro base station triangulation, global positioning system, local broadcast channel, etc.) of being within range of an open femtocell whose identity was manually learned, accessed via a distributed neighbor list, etc. The UE can advantageously tolerate small changes in location without having to relearn the identity of the femtocell. The type of access afforded is advantageously communicated to end user via a display indicator.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate identifying and/or selecting femto cells in a wireless communication environment. A mobile device can scan an Auxiliary Pilot Channel to detect auxiliary pilot channel information (e.g., a particular Walsh Code, . . . ) sent from a base station. Moreover, the identified auxiliary pilot channel information can be evaluated to detect a characteristic of the base station. For instance, the identified auxiliary pilot channel information can be compared with stored auxiliary pilot channel information (e.g., Walsh Code(s) included in a whitelist, blacklist, . . . ). Moreover, a Synchronization Channel can be read based upon the detected characteristic. Further, a Common Pilot Channel, for example, can be analyzed to search for pseudo-noise (PN) offset(s) reserved for femto cell base stations, and the scan of the Auxiliary Pilot Channel can be initiated in response to detecting at least one reserved PN offset.

摘要:
Devices and methods are provided for facilitating handing over to a hybrid femto access point that implements multiple radio access technologies (RATs), including a first RAT and a second RAT. In one embodiment, the method involves detecting a pilot from the hybrid femto access point, wherein the pilot is associated with the first RAT. The method involves registering with the hybrid femto access point on a first channel associated with the first RAT based upon the detected pilot. A system selection database is analyzed to identify a second channel associated with the second RAT, and a selection to handover to the identified second channel is effectuated.
摘要:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate improved multi-mode system selection in a wireless communication system. As described herein, various techniques can be utilized to synthesize system databases corresponding to disparate groups of radio access technologies (RATs), such as a Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) list and/or a Preferred Roaming List (PRL), with one or more overlay databases and associated location information to generate a multi-mode list of preferred systems. As described herein, a preferred system listing can be constructed to leverage fine granularity of information in one or more databases while still supporting databases with coarser information. Techniques are additionally described herein for augmenting and/or grouping one or more overlay databases to facilitate a higher available granularity of information for various RATs than that provided in system databases corresponding to the RATs. Techniques are additionally provided for automated generation of preferred system listing based on changes to observed location.
