    摘要: A method for managing radio access comprises sending of a radio access technology (RAT) resource aggregation request from a first radio access network (RAN) to a second RAN concerning communication with a user equipment connected to a source RAN, and returning a response to the first RAN. The source RAN is the first or second RAN. The first and second RANs use different radio access technologies. Radio resources of a base station in a target RAN, the RAN to which the user equipment is not connected, are reserved. A report of the reserved radio resources is sent to the source RAN. A RAT resource aggregation command is transmitted to the user equipment. The RAT resource aggregation command comprises that a RAT resource aggregation shall be used and the reserved radio resources. The base stations have at least partly overlapping coverage areas.

    摘要: A cellular communications system that utilizes OFDM in its radio interface is capable of utilizing either a first subcarrier spacing or a second subcarrier spacing. Which of these is presently in use is indicated by generating a first type of synchronization signal in response to the first subcarrier spacing presently being in use, and generating a second type of synchronization signal in response to the second subcarrier spacing presently being in use. Whichever of the first type of synchronization signal and the second type of synchronization signal was generated is transmitted. To distinguish between the first and second types of synchronization signals, a time domain representation of the second type of synchronization signal includes a plurality of instances of the first type of synchronization signal.

    摘要: The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in a multi-carrier system. It also assumes independent DRX (Discontinuous reception) functionality on respective component carriers and the possibility for one carrier, e.g. the anchor carrier to initiate a change of DRX state for another component carrier. The basic concept of the present invention is to introduce a new “dormant” state in the DRX logic, whereby the dormant state can be used for non-anchor carrier components. The dormant DRX state implies that a carrier of a UE having this state is not required to monitor system signaling. In embodiments of the present invention this new state is introduced for a particular component carrier (e.g. non-anchor component carrier) for a UE operating in a multi-carrier system, and how to perform the transitions to and from the dormant DRX state implicitly, e.g. based on configured timer(s) for the component carrier or explicit signaling in a different (e.g. anchor) component carriers.

    摘要: For wireless networks that transmit synchronization signals allowing user equipment to synchronize to cells within the network and transmit reference signals allowing user equipment to determine cell identities, a method and apparatus taught herein advantageously link the synchronization signal sequences to the reference signal sequences according to a defined mapping. The linking simplifies the cell search process by allowing user equipment to determine cell identities based on mapping detected synchronization signal sequences to the corresponding reference signal or to the corresponding subset of reference signals in embodiments where there are more reference signal sequences than synchronization signal sequences. In at least one embodiment, the network is a 3G LTE network and at least the Primary Synchronization Signal (P-SyS) sequences are linked to the Downlink (DL) reference symbol sequences according to a defined mapping, thereby allowing to user equipment to determine cell identities from detected P-SyS sequences.

    摘要: Teachings herein schedule a data transmission in a variable bandwidth wireless communication system based on the power efficiency of a mobile node. One or more processing circuits, of the mobile node or a network node, determine the value of a control setting that defines a power efficiency configuration of the mobile node. In one embodiment, for example, the power efficiency configuration indicates the mobile node is configured to operate at the maximum power efficiency attainable without the data rate of the data transmission falling below a minimum data rate required by a quality of service. Regardless, the one or more processing circuits select from different possible bandwidths of the data transmission a bandwidth that supports a given data rate and that, according to a power efficiency model that models power efficiency of the mobile node for the different possible bandwidths, yields a power efficiency comporting with the power efficiency configuration.

    摘要: In a mobile communication network comprising a pico base station and macro base station with overlapping coverage areas, the pico base station transmits a supplemental synchronization signal to enable synchronization when the mobile terminal is operating within a link imbalance zone. The supplemental synchronization signal is transmitted using different time, frequency, and/or code resources from the primary and/or secondary synchronization signals to differentiate and separate the supplemental synchronization signals.
