Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for reporting a Power Headroom (PH) of a User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system having a plurality of aggregated uplink carriers. A method includes receiving a configuration message to configure at least one uplink carrier; triggering a power headroom report (PHR) for a first uplink carrier if a predetermined event occurs; detecting an allocation of an uplink transmission resource for the PHR; identifying whether the first uplink carrier for which a power headroom (PH) is to be determined is different from a second carrier to which the uplink transmission resource is allocated; determining the PH based on a first pathloss associated with the first uplink carrier, if the first uplink carrier is different from the second carrier; and transmitting the PHR generated based the determined PH.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment of the present invention, suggested art a method for reporting a power headroom report (hereinafter, PHR) of a terminal and an apparatus of the terminal, the method comprising the steps of: determining whether the terminal is operated in dynamic time division multiple access (hereinafter, TDD, time division duplexer) mode; determining whether the terminal receives service from a plurality of serving cells, when it is determined that the terminal is operated in dynamic TDD mode; determining a power headroom type (hereinafter, PH type) on the basis of a radio resource control (hereinafter, RRC) message and downlink control information (DCI) received from a base station, when it is determined that the terminal receives a service from the plurality of serving cells; and transmitting information about the determined PH type using an extended PHR format. In addition, suggested are a method for receiving a PHR by a base station and a base station apparatus capable of setting a TDD mode in the terminal and receiving the PHR from the terminal.
Abstract:
The present invention proposes a method for activating secondary carriers in addition to the primary carrier in a wireless communication system supporting carrier aggregation technology. Through the present invention, the UE sorts the operations for activating an SCell into two groups that are executed at different timings, thereby facilitating communication without malfunctioning
Abstract:
The embodiments herein provide a method and system for creating a secure connection for a User Equipment (UE) in a wireless network including a UE, carrier aggregated with at least one first serving frequency served by a first eNB and at least one second serving frequency served by a second eNB. A unique non-repetitive security base key associated with the second eNB is generated using a freshness parameter and security key associated with the first eNB. The use of a different freshness parameter for each security base key derivation avoids key stream repetition. Further, a user plane encryption key is derived based on the generated unique non-repetitive security base key associated with the second eNB for encrypting data transfer over at least one data radio bearer.
Abstract:
According to an embodiment, a method for selecting an access network at user equipment in a mobile communication system includes step of receiving, from a base station, first setting information, and step of selecting the access network based on second setting information if the second setting information is received from the base station, or selecting the access network based on the first setting information if no second setting information is received. Using the proposed method, the user equipment can reduce user's inconvenience and save battery by blocking unnecessary offloading and wireless LAN scanning, and also can improve the quality of use and immediately respond to a cell change by preventing a ping-pong phenomenon.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for initiating communications on a shared channel in a mobile communication system are provided. A user equipment transmits an uplink signal for requesting communications on the shared channel to a Node B, and waits for a delay duration without monitoring a downlink after transmitting the uplink signal. When the delay duration has elapsed, the user equipment monitors the downlink during a valid period and determines whether a downlink signal responding to the uplink signal is received in a transmission time interval within the valid period. When the downlink signal is received in the valid period, the user equipment transmits and receives data on the shared channel.
Abstract:
The present invention proposes a method of processing a buffer state report when a wireless communication system uses inter-eNB carrier aggregation technology. According to the present invention, a terminal may be provided with a proper amount of uplink resource allocations by notifying base stations of a buffer state.
Abstract:
A method for operating a mobile device in a mobile communication network. The method comprises transmitting a mobile device component identifier to a network node within the mobile communication network. The mobile device component identifier identifies at least one hardware or software component of the mobile device. The mobile device component identifier is indicative of capability information specifying at least one capability of the mobile device for communication with the mobile communication network. A corresponding method for operating a network node is also provided.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting a channel state by a terminal in a communication system, according to one embodiment, comprises the steps of: receiving discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration information from a base station; determining whether the terminal is set to transmit channel state information only in onDuration according to a DRX operation; determining whether an arbitrary subframe to be received is a subframe included in onDuration if the terminal is set to transmit the channel state information only in onDuration according to the configuration; and not transmitting the channel state information on the arbitrary subframe if the arbitrary subframe is not a subframe included in onDuration. According to the embodiment, the terminal can efficiently report channel state information.
