摘要:
A method of communicating data in a wireless telecommunications system between plural base stations and plural terminal devices using plural Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex, OFDM, sub-carriers spanning a first frequency bandwidth. The method includes: communicating data between a first base station and a first terminal device using a first group of the OFDM sub-carriers distributed across the first frequency bandwidth, communicating data between a second base station, geographically separated from the first base station, and a second terminal device using a second group of the OFDM sub-carriers distributed across a second frequency bandwidth, and communicating control-plane data between the first base station and the first terminal device using a combination of the first and second groups of the OFDM sub-carriers. Guard regions may be provided in the frequency domain between frequencies of transmissions associated with the first base station and frequencies of transmissions associated with the second base station.
摘要:
A mobile communications system for communicating data to/from mobile units, including: one or more base stations to communicate data to/from the mobile units; first and second groups of one or more mobile units to communicate with the one or more base stations via respective first and second carriers. The base stations can provide, on the first carrier, common information for at least one mobile unit in the first group and for at least one mobile unit in the second group. The base stations can provide allocation information in the first and second carriers, the allocation information including an indication of the location of the common information within the first carrier. At least one mobile unit in the second group is configured, upon reception of the allocation information in the second carrier, to access the common information provided by the one or more base stations in the first carrier.
摘要:
A method for supporting cross carrier indication of a control channel change notification for at least one wireless communication unit that is operating on a first serving communication cell and has been configured with access to at least one second serving communication cell in a wireless broadcast communication system. The method includes, at the base station: generating a message including a broadcast service identifier, wherein the broadcast service identifier identifies a control channel change of the at least one second serving cell accessible by the at least one wireless communication unit; and transmitting the message to the at least one wireless communication unit.
摘要:
A mobile communications network for communicating data to/from mobile terminals, including a wireless access interface that provides a shared channel for communicating data to or from the mobile terminals, the shared channel divided in time into different units of communications resource. The mobile communications network is configured to form super-frames including plural units of communications resource of the shared channel, to allocate each of the mobile terminals in one or more of groups, and to transmit control information providing for each of the mobile terminals in each of the groups of mobile terminals a short identification number in association with an identification number allocated to the mobile terminal by the mobile communications network, the short identification number for use in allocating the units of communications resource to each of the mobile terminals in one of the groups for one of the super-frames.
摘要:
A mobile telecommunications system including mobile terminals of first type and second type configured to transmit uplink data to a network over a radio interface using plural sub-carriers. The mobile terminals of first type configured to transmit uplink data on a first group of the sub-carriers over a first bandwidth and the mobile terminals of second type configured to transmit uplink data on a second group of the sub-carriers within the first group of sub-carrier over a second bandwidth smaller than the first bandwidth. The mobile terminals of first type transmit random access request messages to a base station of the network requesting uplink radio resources on a first random access channel. The mobile terminals of second type transmit random access request messages to the base station of the network requesting uplink radio resources on a second random access channel on sub-carriers within the second sub-carrier group.
摘要:
A cellular communication system comprises a first communication network arranged to use a single cell identifier reuse pattern; a second communication network comprising a cluster of communication cells and arranged to use a common cell identifier reuse pattern for broadcast transmissions. The cellular communication system further comprises management logic (146) having broadcast mode logic (150) operably coupled to at least the second communication network; and a plurality of wireless serving communication units operably coupled to the management logic. The broadcast mode logic (150) applies the same common cell identifier to be used by the plurality of wireless serving communication units in transmitting broadcast communications across the cluster of communication cells in the second network.
