    摘要: A network node (110) and a method therein for managing radio, resources are disclosed. The radio resources are dedicated for beacon (121, 122) signaling, fey a first device; (131) and a second device (132), in conjunction with device-to-device, “D2D”, discovery. The first device: (131) is stationary and the second device (132) is non-stationary. The network node (110) selects (202) a first and a second set of radio resources out of the radio resources. The first arid second sets are dedicated for beacon signaling by the first device (131) and the second device (132), respectively. The first set of radio resources Is non-overlapping with the second set of radio resources. Then the network node (110) schedules (203) a specific radio resource of the first set of radio resources to the first device (131). Next, the network node (110) sends (204) information about the scheduled specific radio resource to the first device (131). The network node (110) further sends (205) information about the second set of radio resources to the second device (132). In this manner, the second device (132) restricts Us radio resources usable for beacon signaling to the second set of radio resources.

    摘要: A mobile communication system includes a network based aggregation controller for controlling aggregation of component carriers from a first spectrum and a second spectrum. In addition, the mobile communication system includes a group of mobile terminals. The network based aggregation controller is configured to send a group message on at least one component carrier of the first spectrum to the group of mobile terminals. The mobile terminals receive the group message. A terminal based aggregation controller in each of the mobile terminals is configured to control operation of the respective mobile terminal with respect to the at least one component carrier of the second spectrum. This control is accomplished in response to the received group message.

    摘要: Methods may be used by a Multi Radio Resource Management function for assisting the control of a User Terminal's access to an access network domain in a radio communications network. The MRRM function is arranged to communicate with a first radio access network domain to which a first authorization entity, A1, authorizes UTs access, and to communicate with at least a second radio access network domain to which a second authorization entity, A2, authorizes UTs access. The methods include receiving at least one radio resource information message, RRIM, from the second access network domain, the message comprising at least one parameter value, X2, of at least one radio resource parameter, P2, related to the traffic load and/or the radio resource consumption and/or the characteristics of at least one radio traffic channel, associated with said second access network domain. The methods further includes: defining a criterion, C, for granting the UT access to the second access network domain, wherein C is a function of at least X2; establishing whether C is fulfilled or not for UT; and instructing A2 that UT is authorized to access the second access network domain if C is fulfilled for UT and instructing A2 that UT is not authorized to access the second access network domain if C is not fulfilled for UT.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for assisting a handover of a data session from a first routing path, associated with a first access network, to an alternative routing path, associated with an alternative access network. Data is routed over the first access network to a UT by binding a session identifier to a first routing identifier. The session identifier and the first routing identifier are defined in accordance with a standard protocol routing scheme of the first access network. The method comprises receiving a capability message uniquely identifying the UT according to both a standard protocol routing scheme of said first access network, and an alternative standard protocol routing scheme of said alternative access network. The method further comprises creating an alternative routing identifier complying with the alternative standard protocol routing scheme, associating the alternative routing identifier with the UT, and associating the session identifier with the alternative routing identifier.

    摘要: Novel techniques of access network selection in multi-access network environment are provided, which allow for avoiding access selection loops for independent access selection processes. The multi-access network environment provides a first access selection function, e.g. a 3GPP access selection function, and a second access selection function, e.g. an ANDSF based access selection function. At least a portion of the first access selection function (565) may be implemented by a network component (560). At least a portion of the second access selection function (110) may be implemented by a user equipment (100), e.g. a mobile terminal. According to the proposed concepts, a selection priority information of the first access selection function (565) is made available to the second access selection function (110).

    摘要: The disclosure relates to automatically configuring a map of inter-access technology neighbor relations. In this neighbor relations map configured by an ANDSF, relationships between neighboring cells of differing access networks of the same or different access technologies are maintained including extra-domain and non-domain neighbor relationships. A domain refers to a domain of one or more access technologies in which ANDSF is not required for intra-domain access selection and discovery. ANDSF configures the map based on neighbor relations data reports from wireless terminals, which record the neighbor relations data as they perform extra-domain or non-domain handovers or reselections or as they scan their surroundings. ANDSF provides steering instructions to configure the neighbor relations data recording and reporting behaviors of the wireless terminals. ANDSF provides access network discovery and selection information, which indicates availability of non-domain accesses, and in some cases domain accesses, to wireless terminals based on their locations.
