摘要:
Communication systems, such as the long term evolution (LTE) advanced (LTE-A) of the third generation partnership project (3 GPP) may benefit from various enhancements. These enhancements can include LTE time division duplex (TDD) enhancements for traffic adaptation and uplink (UL)-downlink (DL) interference management. A method can include determining whether a first cell, in a network including the first cell and a second cell, autonomously selects a time division duplex uplink-downlink configuration. The method can also include sending an authority indicator to a base station of the first cell regarding a determination of whether the first cell is to autonomously select the configuration.

A method for neighbor cell assisted TDD configurations is described. The method includes receiving, from a serving cell, a first configuration. The first configuration is a cell specific configuration which indicates a first set of individual configurations for each of a plurality of SFs. A second configuration is received from the serving cell. The second configuration is a UE specific configuration which indicates a second set of individual configurations for each of the plurality of SFs. The method includes determining whether a given SF is configured differently in the first configuration than in the second configuration. In response to determining that the given SF is configured differently in the first configuration than in the second configuration, the method also includes communicating, with a neighbor cell, in the given SF as configured in the second configuration. Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.

A method for enhancing Slow Associated Control CHannel(SACCH)) erformance, which includes steps of: if a user that uses a half-rate Traffic CHannel(TCH) is contained in a coupled user group, a base station instructing the user on an Adaptive Multi-user channels on One Slot VAMOS sub-channel to use a half-rate sub-channel 0 and a half-rate sub-channel 1 alternately; if a current 26-multiframe is an even frame in an SACCH cycle, the user on the VAMOS sub-channel delivering a TCH frame and an SACCH frame over the originally allocated half-rate sub-channel; if the current 26-multiframe is an odd frame in an SACCH cycle, the user on the VAMOS sending the TCH frame and the SACCH frame after exchanging his/her own half-rate sub-channels; and a reception side performing demodulation and deciphering after receiving its own information. This invention also includes another method for enhancing SACCH performance, which can significantly improve the error tolerance of the SACCH using the method of retransmitting the SACCH when the TCH is in the DTX state and does not need to send any information. According to the present invention, the code error rate of the SACCH can be decreased and the SACCH performance can be enhanced, thus realizing the object of improving the system capacity.

There is a pattern for downlink almost blank sub frames ABSFs for a first network node (e.g., macro eNB) operating in a first component carrier (e.g., PCell). For a user equipment UE operating with the first network node on the first component carrier and also with a second network node on the second component carrier, then either or both of the following are imposed. The UE is scheduled on the first component carrier such that no uplinic control information UCI from the UE is scheduled for any uplink subframe in the first component carrier which maps from any of the ABSFs; and the UE is scheduled on the second component carrier such that UCI from the UE is scheduled only for an uplinic subframe in the second component carrier which maps from any of the ABSFs. By example, the UCI includes either/or ACKs and NACKs corresponding to data sent downlink to the UE.

Systems and techniques for contention based transmission in a cellular network. A physical uplink shared channel is used for contention based transmission by a device such as a user equipment, based at least in part on information provided by a physical uplink control channel associated with the physical uplink shared channel. In addition, a base station such as an eNodeB may respond to a physical uplink shared channel by providing a common physical downlink shared channel providing acknowledge ment/negative acknowledgement information. In addition, the base station may provide a physical downlink control channel indicating the common physical downlink shared channel.

摘要:
A macro eNB (MeNB) triggers a small cell (eLA eNB) to transmit a sequence on a second frequency band using a triggering command that indicates a time to transmit the sequence. On a first frequency band the MeNB triggers at least one user equipment UE to detect the sequence on the second band, and this trigger also has a first indication of when the sequence will be transmitted. From a second indication the MeNB receives on the first band from the at least one UE in response to the triggering of the UE the MeNB can determine whether the UE is located proximate to the small cell. The indication may be as little as a single bit indicating whether the UE detected or not the sequence. The first and second bands may be on first and second component carriers that may not be synchronized to one another, and the aperiodic nature of the triggered sequences and detection reports saves UE power.

A method includes, in response to a determination one or more quiet periods conflict with specified hybrid automatic repeat request feedback timing, sending one or more indicators to one or more user equipment to indicate to the user equipment to shift the specified hybrid automatic repeat request feedback timing to a shifted hybrid automatic repeat request feedback timing. The method includes communicating hybrid automatic repeat request feedback based on the shifted hybrid automatic repeat request feedback timing. Another method includes receiving at a user equipment one or more indicators indicating to the user equipment to shift specified hybrid automatic repeat request feedback timing to a shifted hybrid automatic repeat request timing, and communicating hybrid automatic repeat request feedback based on the shifted hybrid automatic repeat request timing. Apparatus, computer program product, and computer programs are also disclosed.

Provided are methods, corresponding apparatuses, and computer program products for performing spectrum sensing on a spectrum. A method comprises receiving, at a user equipment, information regarding performing spectrum sensing from a base station; performing, based upon the information, the spectrum sensing by the user equipment in an idle mode; and transmitting, by the user equipment out of the idle mode, to the base station a result of the spectrum sensing. With the claimed inventions, transmission interruption caused by non-idle user equipments performing the spectrum sensing would be eliminated.
