A method in a first base station (105) for handling a data transferral in a cellular network (100) is provided. The first base station (105) serves a user equipment (125) via a first cell (115). When the first base station (105) obtains an indication that a second cell (120) provides a coverage for the user equipment (125), the first base station (105) sends a message to a second base station (110) serving the second cell (120). The message commands the second base station (110) to prepare for receiving the uplink data from the user equipment (125) via the second cell (120). The first base station (105) also sends a request to the user equipment (125). The request commands the user equipment (125) to prepare for sending the uplink data both via the first cell (115) and via the second cell (120) in respective separate intra frequency transmissions.

A radio base station in a wireless communication network and a method in a radio base station for providing service to a user equipment is provided. The method comprises establishing a connection between the user equipment and the radio base station, and receiving, from a network node, usage statistics of the user equipment. The method further comprises determining at least one parameter relating to the provision of the service to the user equipment based on the received usage statistics of the user equipment.

A method of controlling an unsynchronized cellular wireless telecommunication system includes, for at least one user equipment served by a first cell, receiving signal strength measurements and, based on the signal strength measurements, determining whether the user equipment should be scheduled for a low interference time period during which neighboring cells are configured to minimize interference in the first cell. The method additionally includes receiving neighboring cell time difference measurements from at least one mobile device within the first cell and, based on said measurements, determining a timing of transmissions from at least one neighboring cell relative to a timing of transmissions from the first cell. Additionally, the method includes defining the low interference time period based on the determined timing of transmissions from the at least one neighboring cell.

摘要:
In one aspect, the present invention in one or more embodiments improves mobility management—e.g., handover processing enhancement—by providing/utilizing additional information in combination with CoMP operation, for enhancing the handover procedure. For example, the additional information is used to improve judging the most suitable target cell (14). The additional information can be, for example, angle of arrival or time advance of the UE (20) in handover, RTT, power headroom or signal strength. In at least one embodiment, the information used for handover processing at source and/or target base stations (12-1, 12-2) is enhanced or otherwise made richer by the use of “geometric information” for mobile terminals (20). In one such embodiment, the geometric information used for handover processing associated with a given terminal (20) indicates something about the mobile terminal's position (relative or absolute).
摘要:
A basic idea is to introduce an additional paging schedule for user equipment in connected mode that differs from the paging schedule used for user equipment in idle mode. Consequently, the inventive mechanism relies on distributing (S1) a notification of an upcoming change of system information in paging messages according to a first paging schedule for user equipment in idle mode, and distributing (S2) a notification of an upcoming change of system information in paging messages according to a second paging schedule for user equipment in connected mode. The second paging schedule for user equipment in connected mode is different from the first paging schedule for user equipment in idle mode. In this way, a satisfactory load distribution is achieved, at the same time as UEs in both connected and idle mode are able to receive important system information notifications.
摘要:
User equipment is to be handed over from a source cell to a target cell in a radio communication network. The user equipment is assigned dedicated uplink resources in the source cell, and a handover candidate cell is prepared for receiving the user equipment by obtaining information about the assigned dedicated uplink resources in the source cell. A radio base station for the handover candidate cell is listening for user equipment transmissions and determines, when receiving a user equipment transmission, whether the received user equipment transmission can be detected based on information about the assigned dedicated uplink resources in the source cell in order to assess if the received user equipment transmission is coming from user equipment for which the handover candidate cell has been prepared. The radio base station for the handover candidate cell initiates a handover procedure for the user equipment if it is assessed that the received user equipment transmission is coming from user equipment for which the handover candidate cell has been prepared. In this way, handover can be initiated and completed even if the serving radio base station of the source cell cannot receive a handover-triggering measurement report from the UE.
摘要:
Systems and methods for estimating inter-frequency measurements used for radio network functions are disclosed. The systems and methods described allow systems to evaluate the quality of a second frequency by using offset adjusted measurements on a first frequency. By using the described methods, system capacity is increased by providing a “low cost” measurement mechanism for support of handover that substantially balance the load between two or more frequency bands. By using the proposed method, handover can be performed more frequently and the interference within each frequency band can therefore be kept at a more optimal level.
