摘要:
Information acquisition relating to a radio environment of a terminal is caused. A carrier aggregation configuration of the terminal is created on the basis of the acquired information, the carrier aggregation configuration comprising a plurality of aggregated cells of same relevance implemented by at least one base station. Information transmission relating to the carrier aggregation configuration is caused to at least one base station implementing at least one aggregated cell.
摘要:
A method for acquiring spectrum beyond the licensed spectrum for wireless network communications comprising accessing a geolocation database to determine a configuration of white space frequencies that may be available and transmitting the carrier aggregation configuration to user equipment (UE). The carrier aggregation configuration may be at least partially encrypted with the key sequences for the encryption being optionally changed for improved security. The white spaces may be activated in a handshake sequence in which a network node transmits an enabling signal to UE, receives an enabling request from UE specifying which white spaces are requested, and transmits an enabling response. In an alternative to transmitting an enabling response, the node may activate the requested white spaces in an LTE signal.
摘要:
An approach is provided for searching and detecting cells. System synchronization sequences are detected. An information block on a control channel of one of a plurality of networks is decoded, in response to the detected synchronization sequences. The synchronization sequences are independent of the networks. The information block includes a system indicator specifying release version of the network.

Carrier aggregation configuration is disclosed. In a method, information acquisition relating to a radio environment of a terminal is caused (1102). Furthermore, a carrier aggregation configuration of the terminal is created (1104) on the basis of the acquired information, the carrier aggregation configuration comprising a plurality of aggregated cells of same relevance implemented by at least one base station. Finally, information transmission relating to the carrier aggregation configuration is caused (1106) to at least one base station implementing at least one aggregated cell.
摘要:
In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, a method comprises identifying at least one beacon opportunity at a wireless network device; selecting a beacon channel from a beacon slot that is a flexibly allocated frequency resource; and transmitting at least one beacon signal in the selected beacon channel multiplexed in a beacon frame during the identified beacon opportunity.
摘要:
An apparatus for determining whether to deactivate a secondary cell includes a processor and memory storing executable computer program code that cause the apparatus to at least perform operations including determining that a secondary cell should be deactivated based on a measurement(s) of the secondary cell or received information associated with frequency spectrum of the secondary cell. The computer program code may cause the apparatus to generate a deactivation message responsive to the measurement(s) indicating secondary cell interference or the received information indicating that the apparatus should no longer use the frequency spectrum. The computer program code may cause the apparatus to provide the deactivation message to a network device. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.
