The present invention addresses a method, including configuring a remote device (UE) for measurements of at least one carrier in a first frequency band which is different from a second frequency band which is licensed used for communication by said remote device, receiving a measurement report from said remote device, and deciding on the usability of the at least one measured carrier in said first frequency band for communication by said remote device. Also, a method is proposed, including measuring at least one carrier in a first frequency band which is different from a second frequency band which is licensed used for communication by a remote device, and sending, to a network transceiver device, a measurement report of the measurements. Likewise, corresponding computer program products as well as correspondingly configured devices are addressed.

The disclosure relates to use of carriers for aggregation in a wireless system. A set of carriers available for use in carrier aggregation is first determined. It is then determined if at least one carrier of the set of carriers can become unavailable for use by a communication device. An indication of a configuration type of the at least one carrier is sent to the communication device, the configuration type being indicative of different behavior during a period. The at least one carrier is maintained in the set of carriers during said period. The communication device receives the indication. If a change in the availability state of the at least one carrier is determined, the communication is operated, device in relation to the at least one carrier, according to the availability state and the received indication during said period.

There is provided a control entity for a communication network, a base station including such a control entity and a user equipment for communication with such a base station. The control entity includes a controller for providing a downlink control signal (e.g. a downlink assignment) scheduling a downlink data resource in a first time slot wherein the controller is configured for providing the downlink control signal over a downlink control resource in an earlier time slot which is chronologically earlier than the first time slot.

摘要:
An apparatus, method and computer program product include requesting a physical identifier of a communication base station having a preset hierarchical distance to a communication core network from a first communication base station having a higher hierarchical distance than the preset hierarchical distance, based on a connection on one of an interface between a communication base station having a higher hierarchical distance than the preset hierarchical distance and the communication core network and an interface between two communication base stations both having a higher hierarchical distance than the preset hierarchical distance. Prior to the requesting, an initial synchronization with a neighbor base station can be established. After the requesting, an accurate synchronization with the overly base station based on the obtained physical identifier can be established.

It is provided an apparatus, comprising including deciding means configured to decide whether or not a predefined condition is met; receiving means configured to receive a first signal at predefined places; inhibiting means configured to inhibit sending a second signal at the predefined places, if the deciding means decides that the predefined condition is met; monitoring means configured to monitor, if the deciding means decides that the predefined condition is met, for at least two of the predefined places whether or not a first signal is received at the predefined places; defining means configured to define a first mute place based on the monitoring result of the monitoring means and a predefined rule, wherein the first mute place is one of the predefined places at which a first signal is received; wherein the inhibiting means is configured to inhibit sending the second signal at the first mute place.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods, apparatuses, a system, and a computer program product for synchronizing to an uncoordinated access network. A new access device added to the access network is temporarily set into an over-the-air discover state and identification signals are broadcast from the new access device. Operating access devices are set into an discovery state in response to a detection of the identification signal, wherein their inter access device over-the-air transmission is stopped during the discovery state and an identity of the new access device is searched.
