Abstract:
A method for configuring a cooperative cell by a master Base Station (BS) in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes instructing a Mobile Station (MS) and adjacent BSs to measure channels, receiving channel measurement results from the MS and the adjacent BSs, and determining at least one BS constituting a cooperative cell according to the channel measurement results. The at least one BS constituting the cooperative cell provides one of an UpLink (UL) service and a DownLink (DL) service to a same MS.
Abstract:
A receiver, such as a mobile station or base station, includes a sliding window-decoder. An antenna in the receiver is configured to receive a protograph-based spatially coupled low density parity check (SC-LDPC) code from a transmitter. The sliding window-decoder is configured to perform a SC-LDPC decoding operation on the SC-LDPC code using a sliding window. The SC-LDPC code includes a parity check matrix. The sliding window includes a subset of protograph sections on which decoding calculations are iteratively performed. The sliding window-decoder performs a stopping rule configured to cease the decoding calculations as a function of a syndrome of one or more check nodes (CNs) in the sliding window.
Abstract:
A mobile station performs a method for paging configuration in a wireless network. The method includes transmitting, to a base station, a parameter M representing a number of receiving (RX) beam instances at the mobile station in idle mode for the mobile station to finish one round of beam steering. The method also includes determining a timing for receiving a paging message from the base station, the timing being a function of the parameter M, the paging message comprising a mobile station identifier. The method further includes receiving the paging message from the base station based on the determined timing.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for supporting a location update registration process used for an idle mode operation of a Mobile Station (MS) in a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication are provided. The method includes determining whether a system global location update registration timer is applied to the MS, when it is determined that the global location update registration timer is not applied, determining a timer for updating a location when the MS operates in an idle mode, and transmitting a message including the timer to the MS.
Abstract:
A method of establishing a data transmission bandwidth between a transmitting node and a receiving node is provided. The method includes sending a request to send (RTS) message from a transmitting node to a receiving node, the RTS message indicating a data transmission bandwidth to be considered for use in subsequent data transmission and establishing a negotiated data transmission bandwidth comprising multiple channels, wherein each channel comprises a 20 MHz bandwidth, and wherein the multiple channels are at least one of contiguous and non-contiguous in frequency.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) performs a method for supporting discontinuous receive (DRX) in a wireless network. The method includes waking up at a wake up time associated with a beginning of a DRX cycle, the DRX cycle comprising a plurality of subframes. The method also includes determining whether to perform receive beam training before a beginning of a time period for downlink communication. The method further includes receiving data during the time period for downlink communication.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for operating a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) Subscriber Station (SS) for a time-controlled service in an M2M communication system. The M2M SS registers the time-controlled service. The M2M SS establishes a service flow with an M2M Base Station (BS), after registering the time-controlled service. Data is transferred, from the M2M SS, to the M2M BS, through the service flow during an access admission time period. Transmission of the data to the M2M BS is ceased during an access restriction time period.
Abstract:
Beam selection is provided. A method for handover in a mobile station includes sending a scan request message for scanning a downlink (DL) beam with respect to a serving base station (BS) and a neighboring BS, to the serving BS, and receiving a scan response message; determining the DL beam for the MS by performing scanning with the serving BS and the neighboring BS based on the scan response message; sending a scan report message comprising a result of the scanning to the serving BS; when receiving an air-HO request message from the serving BS, generating an air-HO response message comprising information of a neighboring BS to which the MS hands over based on the air-HO request message; performing beam selection with the neighboring BS of the handover based on the air-HO request message; and performing the handover.
Abstract:
A method for allocating a resource by a Mobile Station (MS) in a mobile communication system includes performing a measurement operation and a measurement report operation; and being allocated a resource from a small cell Base Station (BS) or a macro BS based on a neighbor small cell BS change probability and a neighbor small cell BS list, wherein the neighbor small cell BS list includes information on neighbor small cell BSs, and the neighbor small cell BSs are neighbor small cell BSs of which received signal strengths for reference signals measured by the MS are equal to or greater than a threshold received signal strength, and wherein the neighbor small cell BS change probability is determined using a neighbor small cell BS list which is generated at a current timing point and a neighbor small cell BS list which is generated at a previous timing point.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for providing a service by a Base Station (BS) in a wireless communication system. The method includes setting up a radio link to a Mobile Station (MS) to provide the service; receiving BS information from at least one BS that cooperates to provide the service; and selecting an alternative BS for replacing the BS from among the at least one BS based on the BS information.
