A common uplink timing adjustment parameter value is estimated for UE transmissions in the multi-RAT communications network and provided for transmission to one or more UEs. That signaling parameter value is common to both the first and second RATs and useable by the one or more UEs to adjust transmit timing of uplink carriers belonging to the different RATs. The common timing adjustment parameter value may be provided, for example, in order to coordinate UE transmit timing of a first uplink carrier associated with the first RAT and of a second uplink carrier associated with the second RAT. A multi-RAT UE concurrently receives a first downlink carrier associated with the first RAT and a second different downlink carrier associated with the second RAT. The UE receives the common timing adjustment parameter value on one of those downlink carriers and adjusts a transmit timing of a first uplink carrier associated with the first RAT and of a second uplink carrier associated with the second RAT.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for obtaining efficient radio resource utilization in a communication network comprising a communication network entity transmitting data on a downlink channel over a radio interface to one or more user equipment, each of which is transmitting data on an uplink channel to said communication network entity over said radio interface. The communication network entity receives transmit power control (TPC) commands on said uplink channel and, further, monitors a channel quality indicator (CQI) on said uplink channel from said user equipment in order to obtain channel quality indicator measurements. If there is a channel quality indicator available, the communication network entity calculates a required downlink power. Otherwise, the communication network entity decodes said received transmit power control commands. Thereafter said transmission power is adjusted either based on the calculated downlink power or based on the decoded transmit power control commands in order to obtain efficient radio resource utilization.

Various embodiments use combinations of different methods for creating virtual surround. Some of the methods used in various embodiments include: dipole beamforming, multi-stage arrays, transducer directionality, and enclosure shading. In general, each of these methods may operate over a specific frequency band in various embodiments. The use of multiple methods to create virtual sound can increase the virtual sound effect and better maintain sound quality compared to the use of a single method for creating virtual surround. Each method used to create virtual surround can be optimized for a specific system configuration based on factors such as the physical set-up of the transducers, the size and shape of the enclosure, and the input signal configuration. Various embodiments allow for an intensity difference to be created for a listener across a wide range of frequencies in order to produce constant directionality.

The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for controlling downlink power in a multi-carrier communication network system. The communication network system comprises communication network nodes (15) communicating with a plurality of user equipments (18) on uplink (17) and downlink (16) carriers over a radio interface. Downlink transmit power control commands are sent on at least one uplink control channel to support power control for a multiple of downlink carriers. Each transmit power control command is assigned a pre-determined code word known by said user equipment (18) and said communication network node (15) and/or different pre-determined slot formats, known by said user equipment (18) and said communication network node (15), are used to integrate different number of transmit power control command based on the number of used downlink and uplink carriers.

The invention relates to a method and an arrangement of efficiently utilizing radio resources in a communication network, comprising a communication network node communicating with one or more user equipments over a radio interface, wherein at least two communication services are provided on said radio interface, each having a certain amount of power allocated in an interactively way. The interaction between said at least two communication services is minimized in order to obtain an enhanced power utilization.
摘要:
A method and arrangement is provided for adjusting the transmission power of radio signals sent over a radio link from a second node to be received by a first node reducing the transmission power consumption and/or optimizing the radio system capacity. The first node maintains a quality target of the link by generating a SIR target value by means of running an outer loop power control, which SIR target value is used for generating a power adjustment command to be sent to the second node for adjusting the transmission power such that a power level adequate for providing the quality target of the link is achieved. The method comprises the step of detecting an abrupt change in the conditions of the radio signals received from the second node, generating a temporary SIR target value, and replacing the SIR target value generated by the outer loop power control with the temporary SIR target value when generating the power adjustment command to be sent to the second node for adjusting the transmission power.
摘要:
A method for limiting Channel Quality Indicator (CQI) reporting from a User Equipment to a network node is provided where a User Equipment can transmit CQI reports to a network node, such as e.g. a base station, when the User Equipment is operating in low transmission and/or low reception activity mode. A limited CQI reporting is obtained by triggering the reporting according to one or more predefined rules, which to at least some extent depend on CQI specific information provided to the User Equipment from the network node. A User Equipment and a network node adapted to operate in accordance with the suggested method are also provided.

A signaling mechanism is provided to indicate to the user equipment which mode is currently in use for uplink and/or downlink transmission in a system supporting different transmission modes of a multicarrier radio system, such as a HSPA system or another radio system. Using such signaling a particular mode can be dynamically or semi-dynamically activated according to the need, UE reported events or measurements, BS measurements, type of service, DRX cycle in use etc.
