摘要:
Time-aligned handover for a mobile device is described herein. The time-aligned handover is achieved by determining a time difference between serving and target cells and determining a target propagation delay based on the time difference. In some cases, the target propagation delay may further be determined based on a serving propagation delay between the serving cell and the mobile device. A target transmission time is calculated based on the target propagation delay. The mobile device uses the target transmission time to time align transmissions to the target cell during handover.

The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for a mobile telecommunication network for selecting an antenna mode to be used for communication between a radio network and a mobile terminal operating in discontinuous reception mode. The arrangement comprises a determiner configured to determine a mode list comprising antenna modes both supported by the radio network and the mobile terminal, associating means configured to associate each antenna mode in the mode list with a degree of a pre-defined performance measure, retrieving means configured to retrieve information indicating the pre-defined performance measure for the mobile terminal, and a selector configured to select an antenna mode from the mode list at least based on the retrieved information.

A radio base station generates a congestion status flag, based on measured resource usage in its cell, and based on performance of sessions in the cell. The flag may be a one bit, or a small number of bits, indicating whether the base station is congested. The flag can be sent to neighbouring radio base stations, for use in determining whether to perform handovers to that radio base station. The flag generated in a radio base station, and the flags generated in neighbouring radio base stations, can also be sent to user equipment in a cell.

The present invention relates to resource management in a telecommunication system. In particular the invention relates to detection and estimation of transport network load and optimization of transport network resources. According to the method and arrangement of the invention a serving node engaged in admission control identifies a transport network interface from which transport load measurements are required for the admission control, and a target radio network node related to the identified transport network interface. The serving radio network node configure the target radio network node to perform and report measurements on the transport network interface.

A method, User Equipment (UE), and network node in an ad-hoc network. The UE determines a node in the ad-hoc network that is able to provide a reference signal comprising a pattern that can be used for synchronization purposes when the UE is in DRX mode in the ad-hoc network. The node is determined by requesting the node to indicate whether the node is able to provide the reference signal, and receiving an accept signal or message from the node. The UE then receives the reference signal from the determined node, enters DRX mode, and uses the received reference signal to maintain synchronization while in the DRX mode.

Methods and arrangements for improving the selection of neighbor cells, on which to perform measurements in different situations. The method in a first node involves obtaining information identifying a first and a second set of neighboring cells for a respective first and second measurement category. A third set of neighboring cells is then determined based on at least parts of the obtained information related to the first and second set. Measurements are then performed in a third measurement category on at least part of the cells in the third set of neighboring cells. The methods and arrangements enable combination of information on neighbor cells, obtained in different ways for different measurement categories into a combined set of neighbor cells, which is more suitable for measurements in a certain measurement category than a set of cells previously obtained for performing measurements in said measurement category.

A telecommunications node (28) comprises a communication interface (36) and a parameter controller (40). The node (28) acquires timing advance (TA) information and angle of arrival (AoA) information through the communication interface (36). The timing advance (TA) information and angle of arrival (AoA) information are based on uplink signals received over a radio interface (32) from one or more wireless terminals (30) that are involved or have been involved in handover. The parameter controller (40) uses the timing advance (TA) information and the angle of arrival (AoA) information to make a determination of size and shape of a cell of a radio access network.

The invention relates to a method for supporting cell change between frequency layers. The method is performed in a UE and/or a RN node of a wireless communication network deploying two frequency layers. The RN node serves a UE in a cell of a first of the two frequency layers. The UE is configured to perform measurements on the first frequency layer, and to exclude measurements on a second of the two frequency layers. The method comprises receiving (610) measurement results from the UE, for measurements performed on a cell of the first frequency layer, determining (620) a location of the UE based on the measurement results, assessing (630) a coverage of a target cell of the second frequency layer based on the location and a coverage map for the two frequency layers, and determining (640) whether to change to the target cell based on the assessment.

The invention relates to methods and arrangements for the reliability handling of idle gap commands received in a unit of a mobile telecommunication system. A user equipment located in a cell of a mobile telecommunication network receives signalling gap commands used to activate or deactivate idle gaps for downlink measurements in the neighbor cells. It is determined whether the received gap command is reliable or not. Downlink measurements are then performed in accordance with a predefined rule in case the received gap command is determined as unreliable.
