摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and a wireless station for initiating radio resource measurements. A wireless station identifies a need for radio resource measurements by a second wireless station despite there is no association between the wireless station and the second wireless station allowing direct radio communication between said stations. The wireless station initiates a request for radio resource measurements by the second wireless station.

The object of the present invention is to reduce interference and power consumption of a repeater operated in a wireless communication network. According to the present invention this object is achieved by a self-optimizing repeater (10) for use in a wireless communication network using predetermined carrier communication resources per cell. The self-optimizing repeater (10) comprises an amplifier (12) adapted to amplify a first subset of communication resources selected from, the carrier communication resources, a monitoring unit (14) adapted to monitor traffic load on the first subset of communication resources, and an adjustment unit (16) adapted to adjust the first subset of communication resources as a function of the monitored traffic load. The operation of the self-optimizing repeater is fully transparent and no control signaling is necessary to control the self-optimizing repeater.

The present invention relates to a method in a wireless communication system and in particular better usage of available radio resources in such systems by controlling the party effects using user based scheduling back-off. The scheduling back-off according to the invention is based on providing and controlling the number of channels/frequencies/codes/timeslots or fractions of channel use to a terminal depending on information regarding radio channel quality obtained from the system.

A method in a first base station having a first coverage area at least partly overlapping with a second coverage area of a second base station, the first base station operating within a first transmission power range and the second base station operating within a second transmission power range. The method includes determining radio link quality of a user equipment (UE1) connected to the first base station and being located in an adjustable extended coverage range of the second base station; requesting from the second base station, interference related measurements for unused physical channels or for physical channels at least partially overlapping with physical channels used by UE1 and having the radio link quality falling below a threshold value; and deciding for UE1, based on the interference related measurements, whether a handover to the second base station should be performed.

The present solution relates to a method in a first communication node (201) for determining an indication of channel quality of a radio channel (205) between the first communication node (201) and a second communication node (203). The first communication node (201) and the second communication node (203) are comprised in a wireless communication network (200). The radio channel (205) comprises a plurality of sub bands. First, at least two channel quality reports are obtained (701) for different time instances. Each channel quality report comprises indications of channel quality of at least two of the plurality of sub bands. Then a channel quality deviation is estimated (702) for at least one of the plurality of sub bands. Further, an indication of a channel quality is determined (703) for at least one of the plurality of sub bands based on the estimated channel quality deviation.

For uplink cooperation of a serving access node (100-1) one or more supporting access nodes (100-2) are selected. The selection is based on a characteristic of a link between a terminal (200) served by the serving access node (100-1) and the supporting access node (100-2), or is based on a characteristic of a link between a further terminal (200′) served by the supporting access node (100-2) and the serving access node (100-1). The characteristics of the links may comprise a signal quality, e.g. a path gain, a signal strength, or a latency. The characteristics of the links may also comprise scheduling information, e.g. time resources and/or frequency resources used on the link.
摘要:
A radio network resource controller directs a first network node associated with a first cell region, or a wireless terminal in communication through the first cell region, to measure and report radio resource-related data selected from the group consisting of: resource activity per channel; the number of transmitted power samples that exceed a threshold over a measurement period; and, channel quality samples that exceed a quality threshold. The controller then receives at least one measurement report of the radio resource-related data and, as a function of the radio resource-related data in the first cell region, dynamically reallocates the distribution of resources, such as radio-frequency channels, between the first cell region and at least a second cell region. The invention has a particular advantage in TDD mode of operation where efficient and dynamic interference mitigation is needed to combat the inherent mobile-to-mobile and base station-to-base station interference.

The present invention relates to a method for use in a user equipment (10), and relates to a user equipment (10) for enabling a serving base station (40) to estimate interference contribution in a network when scheduling resources for the use equipment. According to the method, the user equipment determines an amount of resources required to send data and the user equipment sends a report to it serving base station when the required amount of resources is greater than a threshold value. In the report, measurements performed by the user equipment are included. The report will assist the serving base station with its estimation of the degree of interference user equipments generates in the network, and hence the power and resources to assign.
