According to one embodiment, a subscriber station configured to communicate with one or more base stations in a wireless communication network. The subscriber station is configured to receive, from the network, information associated with one or more of the TPs that are candidates for coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission with the subscriber station, measure a plurality of channel quality values for each of the one or more TPs, and report to the network, the measured channel quality values.
Abstract:
Techniques for managing traffic delivery to a group of devices are described. In some embodiments, a method for communicating in a wireless network may comprise receiving, at a base station, information intended for a group of devices identified by a device group identifier (DGID), mapping, at the base station, the DGID to a common identifier known by each device in the group of devices, and multicasting the information from the base station to the group of devices over one or more channels of the wireless network using the common identifier. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method including communicating, by a mobile device, with a base station via first and second component carriers having different frequency bands and time division duplexing (TDD) configurations. The method may include receiving one or more downlink transmissions via the second component carrier. The method may include selecting a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) timing sequence based on the TDD configurations of the first and second component carriers. The method may include transmitting one or more positive acknowledgment and/or negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signals, associated with the one or more downlink transmissions, according to the selected HARQ timing sequence. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Abstract:
The application provides a receiving method in cooperative communications. A signal-receiving node demodulates a first signal received from a local end to obtain a first log-likelihood ratio. The signal-receiving node further demodulates a second signal received from a relay node to obtain a second log-likelihood ratio. The second signal is a signal obtained by the relay node through network coding the first signal and a third signal received from a peer end. The signal-receiving node calculates a prior log-likelihood ratio according to the first log-likelihood ratio and the second log-likelihood ratio, and decodes the second signal by using the prior log-likelihood ratio to obtain the third signal.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for controlling a Channel State Information (CSI) report. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for controlling a CSI report of a User Equipment (UE) in a base station of a Long Term Evolution (LTE) mobile communication network is provided. The method includes a step of determining a CSI report set for a UE, where the CSI report set includes multiple CSI feedback modes, and each CSI feedback mode is defined to include a Non-Zero Power Reference Signal (NZP RS) resource part for channel measurement and an Interference Measurement Resource (IMR) part for interference measurement. In addition, the method further includes a step of sending to the UE Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling indicating the CSI report set.

Abstract:
The invention relates to methods and arrangements in a transmitting node for enabling a receiving node to perform measurements on interference caused by transmissions from at least one transmission point controlled by the transmitting node on receptions at the receiving node. The transmitting and receiving nodes are comprised in a wireless communications system. The transmitting node determines an interference measurement resource, IMR, for the receiving node. The receiving node is expected to measure interference on the IMR. The transmitting node then transmits at least one interfering signal on the IMR. The at least one interfering signal is not expected to be decoded or coherently measured upon by any node served by the transmitting node.
