摘要:
Systems and methods for configuring measurement gaps for dual connectivity are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) may be configured to communicatively couple to a plurality of Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) Node Bs (eNBs). For example, the UE may include a plurality of transceivers, and each transceiver may be coupled to a different cell group. A measurement gap may need to be configured for each transceiver. However, the transceivers may interfere with each other's measurement gaps. In an embodiment, a duration of a measurement gap may be increased over a default value to reduce the number of interruptions per measurement gap. Alternatively, or in addition, measurement gaps may begin and/or end at the same. The measurement gaps may have a same repetition period and be aligned each period. Or, the measurement gaps may have different repetition periods and may or may not align periodically.

Systems and methods for prioritizing inter-frequency measurement are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) may be configured to communicatively couple to an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) Node B (eNB). The eNB may determine a priority for performing each of a plurality of inter-frequency measurement. The eNB may indicate the priority of each measurement to the UE. The eNB may transmit lists of higher priority and lower priority measurement objects. The lists may be separate and/or concatenated. Alternatively, or in addition, each measurement object may include a priority indicator, or the priority may be determined from the type of measurement object. In some embodiments, the eNB may provide indications of normal priority and low priority measurement objects and/or indications of normal priority and high priority measurement objects. The UE may perform measurements according to the indicated priorities.
摘要:
A prioritized cell identification and measurement method is disclosed. The method classifies frequency layers to be monitored and measured by an user equipment into normal- and reduced-performance groups. Several different embodiments are described. Where appropriate, the corresponding signaling design is also suggested. User equipment can adopt one or several of these embodiments, and can change configurations in a semi-static manner based on operating conditions.

In an embodiment, a method of operating a communication device includes determining a first coordinated multipoint (CoMP) mode, electronically receiving feedback from a user device in the uniform feedback format, and determining transmission parameters of the first CoMP mode. The first CoMP mode includes one of a plurality of CoMP modes, and each of the plurality of CoMP modes is configured to operate using a uniform feedback format.
