摘要： A method and apparatus are provided to provide for timely switching between antenna port configurations as the mode of operation of a mobile terminal changes which may, in turn, dictate different combinations of the MIMO, CoMP and/or CA capabilities. In this regard, a method is provided that includes utilizing one or more antennas in a first antenna port configuration in a first mode of operation. The method may also receive a command that triggers switching to another antenna port configuration and then determines another one of a plurality of antenna port configurations to be utilized in response to the command. The method may then utilize one or more antennas of the another one of the antenna port configurations in a second mode of operation. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.

摘要： A network sends data blocks in a first/n1h radio frame having a first configuration of uplink to downlink transmission time intervals TTIs. Each of these data blocks originate a separate hybrid automatic repeat request HARQ process. The network then frequency or spatially mutliplexes first re-transmissions of at least two of the data blocks in at least one TTI of a sequentially next second/(n+1)st radio frame having a different second configuration of uplink to downlink TTIs. If necessary second re-transmissions of the HARQ processes can also be similarly multiplexed in a TTI of a third/(n+2)nd radio frame sequentially next after the second/(n+1)st frame. In the examples, if frequency domain multiplexing the frequency mutliplexed first re-transmissions are separately scheduled; or if spatial domain multiplexing the spatially mutliplexed first re-transmissions are scheduled with a single physical downlink control channel PDCCH.

摘要： A radio frame or subframe is checked and it is determined to satisfy at least one predefined condition. In response to that determination, a second search space is utilized such that a number Y of blind detections for a user equipment UE in the determined radio frame/subframe is greater than a number X of blind detections for the UE in the radio frame/subframe if a first search space were utilized. In various embodiments the predefined condition is: the number X of blind detections is less than a threshold value Z (Z>=Y) where Z is a maximum number M of blind detections defined by a transmission mode for the frame's/subframe's component carrier CC; a number of CCs configured for the UE; the radio frame or subframe is in the first CC but not in the second CC one of uplink or a special subframe (further conditions) or an almost blank subframe.

摘要： A user's downlink component carriers DL-CCs are divided into groups. An aperiodic CQI/PMI report is triggered by signaling (for example one bit). There is a pattern that maps the signaled trigger to a particular DL-CC within a group of DL-CCs that are configured for a user equipment UE, and that mapped particular DL-CC is determined to be the subject of the aperiodic report. In various embodiments the pattern is implicit and points to the DL-CC for which an aperiodic report has not been sent for more than a threshold time interval; or to the DL-CC for which resources have not been allocated for a periodic report; or to every DL-CC in the group that are activated for the user equipment. Examples are detailed for apparatus, method and computer program from the perspective of the network and from the perspective of the UE.
