    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) performs measurements on a serving cell and at least one neighbor cell in a heterogeneous wireless communications network that includes one or more higher power radio network nodes operating near one or more lower power radio network nodes. The UE acquires enhanced neighbor cell information (eNCI) including at least subframe information and determines an allowed set of one or more subframes during which the UE may make downlink and/or uplink measurements for at least one cell in the heterogeneous network. A network node in the heterogeneous network generates the eNCI, from which the UE may determine the allowed set of radio transmission subframes, and provides the eNCI for the UE to coordinate the UE measurements on the at least one cell during one or more of the allowed subframes.

    Abstract: The invention relates to methods and devices for supporting configuration of a measurement gap pattern for a user equipment (91) requiring measurement gaps for performing an inter-frequency measurement. A radio network node (81) receives an indication (85) from the user equipment (91) that the user equipment (91) is going to perform an inter-frequency measurement for positioning, which inter-frequency measurement requires measurement gaps. The radio network node (81) may determine a measurement gap pattern for performing the inter-frequency measurement and may signal, to the user equipment (91), information (86) to initiate use of the determined measurement gap pattern in the user equipment (91). Alternatively the user equipment (91) configures the measurement gap pattern itself based on a set of pre-defined rules.

    Abstract: Mobility parameters, such as those used in handoff decisions, are based on the speed of User Equipment (UE) (10), measured at two points. UE speed estimates are taken at both the UE (10) and base station (12), and the two speeds compared. If the speeds match (or differ by less than a predetermined amount), one or more mobility parameters are adapted based on the UE speed. These parameters may include time to trigger (TTT), time to satisfy (TTS), measurement time, forgetting factor, β, measurement period (Tm), handover prohibit timer, MeasurementReportingmargin, HOmargin, hysteresis, and the like. The UE speed comparison may be performed at the UE (10) or at the base station (12). In one embodiment, a plurality of UE speed ranges are defined (e.g., low, medium, high), with corresponding mobility parameter values associated with each range.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a user equipment and a network node, and to related methods of supporting resource efficient ad hoc networking between user equipments (UEs) of a cellular network. This is addressed by a solution where the network node is supporting the ad hoc networking between UEs. The network node is capable of 5 accessing a user equipment capability database and receives (210, 220) update messages from UEs (UE1, UE2) comprising information regarding the capabilities of the user equipments such as supported frequency bands, RATs and antenna modes. The network node updates (230) the user equipment capability database (DB) with the information comprised in the received update message, and determines based on the 10 information stored in the user equipment capability database and a matching algorithm (240), that UE1 and UE2 have matching capabilities and are able to communicate wirelessly. The network node then transmits (250) an ad hoc “paging” message comprising the UE1 and UE2 identities. The “paging” message is received by the UE1 and UE2 identified in the “paging” message, and UE1 may then e.g. establish an ad hoc 15 network with UE2 (260).
