Abstract:
A terminal, and a method for operating a terminal in idle mode to detect signaling from an access node of a wireless network, comprising receiving configuration from the access node, identifying paging occasions and wake-up signal occasions associated with a discontinuous reception DRX period, receiving information from the access node, identifying a time advance duration; and activating a wireless signal receiver in the terminal for a period of said time advance duration prior to each paging occasion.
Abstract:
A wake-up signal includes a first part and a second part. The first part is related to a cell of a base station transmitting the wake-up signal and includes a synchronization signal for synchronizing a terminal with the base station. The second part is related to one or more terminals.
Abstract:
A method of receiving data at a communications device from an infrastructure equipment forming part of a radio network part of a wireless communications network is provided. The method comprises receiving at the communications device one or more downlink transport blocks, estimating the data carried by each of the one or more downlink transport blocks by performing an error correction decoding in accordance with the error correction encoding applied by the infrastructure equipment.
Abstract:
A method for paging in a wireless communication system, including a network node (10) configured to send and receive data in a plurality of beams for communication with a terminal (1), comprising transmitting first paging data (20) including a paging indicator from the network node (10) in multiple beams, wherein the paging indicator includes terminal ID or group ID information and a feedback request indicator and; receiving a response signal (22) in the network node from the terminal, wherein, dependent on said feedback request indicator, the response signal includes a beam indicator associated with a detected beam in which the terminal has received data from the network node.
Abstract:
Positioning reference signals are transmitted in a downlink direction from base stations (200) of a wireless communication network to a wireless communication device (100) or in an uplink direction from the wireless communication device (100) to base stations (200) of the wireless communication network. According to a frequency hop pattern, a radio interface of the wireless communication device is switched between multiple different frequency ranges. In this way, the wireless communication device (100) can receive the downlink positioning reference signals on multiple different frequencies defined by the frequency hop pattern or send the uplink positioning reference signals on multiple different frequencies defined by the frequency hop pattern.
Abstract:
Method for providing a count indication of radio devices to a radio network, particularly in idle or in-active mode, comprising transmitting a presence message to a first base station of the radio network based on a reporting rule, which presence message indicates presence of a radio device within a dedicated coverage area of the radio network. The reporting rule may include a probability rule, wherein said presence message is transmitted from the radio device responsive to an outcome of a probability check, based on the probability rule, indicating that the radio device shall transmit the presence message. The reporting rule may also be transmitted responsive to the radio device making a cell reselection to the first cell. After receiving an acknowledgement presence message from the base station, connection setup to the network is terminated.
Abstract:
A terminal device for use with a wireless telecommunications network, the terminal device comprising: transceiver circuitry configured to receive data from the wireless telecommunications network, and a controller configured: to control the transceiver circuitry to receive control information, a control channel and a data channel wherein, the control information defines the period of time between the control channel and the data channel, and to ignore a subsequent control channel received during the period of time following the control channel.
Abstract:
A radio device applies a carrier frequency for transmission of data between the radio device and a base station of a cellular network. Further, the radio device configures a measurement time interval in which the radio device temporarily switches from the transmission of data to receiving at least one broadcast signal conveying system information from the base station. Based on the received at least one broadcast signal, the radio device estimates an offset of the carrier frequency as applied by the radio device to a frequency of a carrier signal as received from the base station.
Abstract:
A method for positioning a mobile terminal in a radio network including a plurality of base stations, comprising: transmitting a signal from a base station for receipt in the mobile terminal along a line of sight of a radio beam; receiving time measurement data from the mobile terminal, obtained based on receipt in the mobile terminal of the transmitted signal; calculating a distance value (DLOS) for the distance from the base station to the mobile terminal based on the time measurement data; and calculating a vertical position (Dv) of the mobile terminal, based on the distance value and an elevation angle (θ) of the line of sight of the radio beam from one or more of the plurality of base stations.
