摘要:
A system, method and apparatus for demodulating a received signal using a configurable receiver. The receiver performs the demodulation of a signal according to a selected interference cancellation demodulation scheme. The same receiver can be configured, by setting certain parameters, to behave as a successive interference cancellation (SIC) scheme receiver, a parallel interference cancellation (PIC) scheme receiver, or a hybrid interference cancellation (HIC) scheme receiver. In another aspect of the present invention, the receiver performs its demodulation operation using a single interference cancellation unit (ICU). In addition, the ICU's despreading and respreading functions may be performed by the same processing element.

According to certain embodiments, a method is disclosed for use in a wireless device being affected by pre-emption. The method comprises receiving information from a network node and performing one or more operations based on the received information. The information indicates a portion of a buffer that is affected by pre-emption. Examples of operations that can be performed based on the received information include flushing the portion of the buffer affected by pre-emption or separately handling the portion of the buffer affected by pre-emption.
摘要:
A high-power point (110) and one or more low-power points (120) transmit signals that are associated with the same cell-identifier in a heterogeneous cell deployment. The coverage areas corresponding to the low-power points (120) fall at least partly within the coverage area for the high-power point (110), so that mobile stations (130) within range of a low-power point are also within range of the high-power point (110), from a downlink perspective. The same CRS signals are transmitted by both the high-power (macro) point (110) and some or all of the low-power (pico) points (120). At the same time, the network transmits CRS-based PDSCH for a particular UE on both the high-power point (110) as well as on some or all of the low-power points (120). In some embodiments only a subset of the points, e.g., those points that the UE hears sufficiently well, participate in the PDSCH transmission using CRS for channel estimation.
摘要:
A high-power point and one or more low-power points transmit signals associated with the same cell-identifier in a heterogeneous cell deployment. Coverage areas corresponding to the low-power points fall at least partly within the coverage area for the high-power point, so that mobile stations within range of a low-power point are also within range of the high-power point. Channel-state-information reference symbols, CSI-RS, are transmitted using different CSI-RS resources on different transmission points within the cell, while configuration of CSI-RS measurement resources is conducted on a UE-specific basis. The choice of measurement resources to be used is determined by the network, based on the properties of the channels from the transmission points to the UE. As the UE moves around within the cell, the network tracks the channel properties and reconfigures the CSI-RS resources measured by the UE, to correspond to the resource of the closest transmission point or points.
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:
It is presented a method performed in a first network node. The method comprises the steps of: receiving an uplink transmission from a mobile communication terminal; determining, based on content of the uplink transmission, information to be transmitted over a first communication channel when the content comprises control data intended for a second network node; transmitting the information over the first communication channel to the second network node when the information is to be transmitted over the first communication channel; and transmitting the information via a second communication channel, the second communication channel being physically separate from the first communication channel, when the information is not to be transmitted over the first communication channel. A corresponding network node is also presented.

A method in a radio network node for dynamic carrier mode switching is provided. The radio network node is comprised in a radio communications system. The radio network node is configured to operate in a legacy mode and is further configured to operate in a non legacy mode. At least one carrier is operated so that it switches (602) from non legacy mode to legacy mode. When operating the carrier in the legacy mode, the radio network node signals (603) with a user equipment. The user equipment operates in legacy mode, but can not operate in non legacy mode. The radio network node then operates the at least one carrier so that it switches (604) from legacy mode back to non legacy mode.

Methods and devices for managing a cellular communication system (1) and mobile terminals (40) are presented. A collective positioning measurement order (50) is issued to a multitude of mobile terminals (40) in a first cell (10) of the cellular communication system (1). This issuing is preferably performed intermittently at a multitude of times according to a predetermined rule. Each mobile terminal (40) receives information concerning a collective positioning measurement order. The mobile terminal (40) performs a positioning operation, typically a positioning measurement on a ranging signal (51, 52) or transmission of a ranging signal (53), preferably intermittently at a multitude of times, according to a predetermined rule based on the information concerning the collective positioning measurement order. An updating of a storage with positioning data can preferably be obtained. In terrestrially based positioning systems, signal resources dedicated to positioning measurement can be reserved in the cellular communication system.

The present invention generally relates to radio communication systems, relay nodes, controller nodes, user equipment (user terminals), software and methods for said systems and nodes. In one embodiment, a method for operating a control node for a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises the steps: creating a data frame comprising an early part and a later part, wherein the early part comprises first control data for controlling a receiving node; checking whether second control data are to be put into the later part; scheduling payload data for the receiving node into the later part if second control data are not to be put into the later part; and transmitting the date frame to the receiving node.
摘要:
A method and an arrangement (800) in a user equipment (420) for reporting Channel State Information, CSI, and a method and an arrangement (1000) in a base station (410) for obtaining CSI are provided. The user equipment (420) is in connection with the base station (410) in a cellular communication network (400). After receiving a receiving (702) a grant in a subframe n to be used for CSI reporting, from the base station, the user equipment determines (703) subframe type of a subframe n+p. The user equipment then reports (704) to the base station, CSI reflecting channel conditions in the subframe type of subframe n+p. p is a variable value.
