摘要:
In scheduling of downlink multipoint transmissions at least one resource element is left free of the downlink channel. Data representing interference is then inserted in said at least one resource element for use in interference measurements.

Certain networks can operate using circuit switched infrastructure, while other networks may operate using infrastructure for the long term evolution (LTE) of the third generation partnership project (3GPP). Devices can operate across the boundaries of these networks. Thus, such devices as well as the networks may benefit from network sharing in reverse single radio voice call continuity. For example, a method may include requesting handover of a user equipment from a source network to a target network. The method may also include providing a network identification corresponding to the source network while requesting the handover. Alternatively, or in addition, a method may include requesting handover of a user equipment from a source network to a target network. The method may also include determining the target network based on a network identification received previously.

A method includes monitoring, in a user terminal, a PDCCH channel during an active period of a DRX cycle. For defining a TDD configuration for the terminal when an inactive period of the DRX cycle changes into an active period, the method further includes monitoring downlink sub-frames and DwPTS sub-frames according to a downlink HARQ reference configuration until an update of the TDD configuration is received; monitoring the PDCCH channel for any sub-frames except for sub-frames scheduled or configured for uplink transmission by the downlink HARQ reference configuration until the update of the TDD configuration is received; and/or monitoring the PDCCH channel for sub-frames when the terminal monitors the PDCCH channel for paging. The method includes counting, in the terminal, PDCCH sub-frames for DRX timers, by utilizing the TDD configuration with the least or most downlink sub-frames for the PDCCH sub-frame counting
摘要:
Indication(s) of a configuration of first interference measurement resources in first subframe(s) and of a configuration of second interference measurement resources in second subframe(s) are received at a first BS and from a second BS using an interface between the first and second BSs. The first BS transmits zero or low power REs that coincide with the REs belonging to the first interference measurement resources in the first subframe(s). The first BS transmits full power REs that coincide with the REs belonging to the second interference measurement resources in the second subframe(s). The first interference measurement resources in the first subframe(s) are to be used by a UE (e.g., attached to the second base station) to measure interference for zero or low power REs and the second interference measurement resources in the second subframe(s) are to be used by the UE to measure interference for full power REs.
摘要:
Various communication systems may benefit from push notifications of network information. For example, cellular optimization may be accomplished by selective use of a web technique by applications on network devices, which may further benefit from push notifications that may reduce the need for web requests. According to certain embodiments, a method can include monitoring network service viability for a user or application. The method can also include sending a push message to a user equipment when network service viability is detected for the user or the application.
摘要:
A method includes accessing sets of correlation values, each set corresponding to a correlation performed between a number of first samples and a same number of second samples. The sets of correlation values were determined by aligning the number of the first samples with selected second samples and sliding the number of first samples across the second samples to select different sets of the second samples. The first samples are samples of a forward signal transmitted over a cable/connector system to one or more antennas, and the second samples are samples of a reflected RF signal that comprises a reflected version of the forward signal. The method includes determining a maximum value from the plurality of sets of correlation values, and associating the maximum value with a return loss of the cable/connector system. Apparatus, computer programs, and program products are also disclosed.

Embodiments of the invention utilize advanced statistical data analytics to predict and provide recommendations for root-cause analysis for service access QoE issues in networks, such as 3G/4G networks. Using FCAPS data as predictor variables, embodiments are configured to set up the problem as a predictive regression or classification problem to estimate service access QoE related indicators. Some embodiments perform training and tuning of various non-linear statistical modelling algorithms, based for example on tree and ensemble methods, using network deregistration information from RAN logs.

The invention relates to device-to-device (D2D) communications an in particular to location registration of a D2D User Equipment (UE) being in idle mode. A D2D capable UE (D2D cluster head) is [1] configured to communicate with a communication network, is [2] able to establish D2D communication with another D2D capable UE, receives [3] from the communication system a configuration so as to send location update related messaging on behalf of UEs with which D2D communications has been established, obtains [4] information of a change of status of a UE regarding a D2D communication or a change of cell of a UE and in response to the information, causes [5] the sending of a message to the communication network, the message comprising a location update request regarding the UE.
摘要:
A method to balance idle UEs during RA procedures is described. The method includes determining a load condition of a first cell and a load condition of at least one neighbor cell and determining a suitability of the first cell for receiving access attempts from idle mobile devices based on the load conditions of the first cell and of the at least one neighbor cell. The method includes sending an indication of the suitability (for example, in a broadcast message and/or a UE specific message). A UE receives the indication of suitability. The UE selects a target cell from a plurality of cells based at least in part on the indication (for example, in order to select a target cell that is less loaded). The method also includes sending, from the UE, an access attempt to the target cell. Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.
摘要:
Systems and techniques for handover management between adjacent cells. A base station, such as a macro base station serving a macro cell identifies a user device as a candidate for handover based on specified criteria and communicates a handover request to a femto base station. The femto base station evaluates specified conditions, such as energy efficiency, for the cell it is serving and allows the handover only if the handover would improve the conditions.
