    Abstract: A method performed in a base station includes the base station determining a level of interference in a channel between the base station and the wireless communication device based on a signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) in the channel. The base station determines, in accordance with the determined interference, whether to use a predetermined power level to transmit a message to the wireless communication device. In response to determining to use the predetermined power level, the base station further determines whether the wireless communication device requires downlink signal radio bearer (SRB) assignments. In response to determining that the wireless communication device requires the downlink signal radio bearer assignments, the base station transmits the message to the wireless communication device using a downlink control information (DCI) message format having a same size as a message format used for uplink messages.

    Abstract: Base station and User Equipment (UE) and methods to be performed therein for communication using a dynamic transmission parameter. The method to be performed in a base station comprises scheduling of transmission resources to a UE in an OFDM symbol associated with a dynamic parameter value. The base station is assumed to be associated with a carrier where a radio frame comprises at least one OFDM symbol associated with a fixed parameter value and at least one OFDM symbol associated with a dynamic parameter value, where the parameter is a cyclic prefix, CP, or a subcarrier spacing, Δf. The method further comprises determining a value of the parameter based on a characteristic of a radio link associated with the UE, and applying the determined value of the parameter when communicating with the UE in the scheduled transmission resources.

    Abstract: A system, apparatus and method is disclosed for multiband wireless communication. Frequency bands and/or transmission formats are identified as available within a range for wireless communication. The system evaluates signal quality metrics for each frequency band and selects a communication method based on the evaluation. Multiple frequency bands and communication methods can be utilized by the system such that a combination of licensed, unlicensed, semilicensed, and overlapped frequency bands can be simultaneously used for communication. The system monitors communications and can report link performance for adaptive control of the selected communication methods.
