摘要:
Underlay network node and macro base station and methods therein for enabling avoidance of interference in a cell extension area associated with an uplink/downlink imbalance. The underlay network node is assumed to be associated with a cell area A, and a cell extension area B, where the cell extension area B has an uplink/downlink imbalance in relation to a neighboring base station and the network node. The method in the underlay network node involves serving a UE in both uplink and downlink when the UE is located in cell area A. The method further involves serving a UE only in the uplink when the UE is located in cell extension area B, thus enabling avoidance of interference related to communication of a UE located in said cell extension area B.

Methods and nodes in a cellular communication system for supporting Random Access. A method in a first network node involves determining at least one uplink radio resource amongst a plurality of radio resources, and refraining from scheduling uplink communication in the at least one uplink radio resource, thus enabling a UE in an area with an uplink/downlink imbalance to perform Random Access to a neighbor second network node (B).

Example embodiments presented herein are directed towards a wireless terminal and base station, and corresponding methods therein, for providing a handover for a subset of bearers associated with the wireless terminal. The subset of bearers is less than a total number of bearers associated with the wireless terminal. Thus, upon the completion of the handover procedure, at least one bearer will stay connected with a source base station.

The embodiments of the present invention relate to apparatuses and methods for resource management in a multi-carrier system wherein a plurality of component carriers (CCs) is defined per cell. According to a method in an apparatus corresponding to a radio base station, a message is assembled comprising information on the structure of the cell served by the radio base station; the information including one or more CCs used in the cell that is/are available for a user equipment for performing initial access in the cell. The method also comprises, transmitting the assembled message to the user equipment and indicating to the user equipment to what resources to use for random access in the cell. The exemplary embodiments of the present invention also relates to a method in the user equipment, to a radio base station and to a user equipment.

Method and arrangement in a user equipment for link adaptation of signals sent from the user equipment to a base station. The base station and the user equipment are comprised within a wireless communication system. The method comprises receiving information from the base station, comprising an indication of resource blocks available for transmission of signals from the user equipment to the base station, obtaining at least one of a user equipment related parameter or a link related parameter, and selecting a subset of the indicated available resource blocks received from the base station, based on at least one of the measured user equipment related parameter or the measured link related parameter, to be used for sending signals to the base station. Also, a method and arrangement in a base station for assisting a user equipment in performing link adaptation of signals is presented.

The invention relates to a method in a user equipment and a user equipment (700) for controlling connection re-establishment between said user equipment and a network. The method comprises the steps of—receiving (501) a configuration message from the network defining at least one condition;—upon detection of connectivity problems (503) towards the first cell, evaluating said at least one condition (504);—if said at least one condition is fulfilled for a neighboring cell (B), applying at least one special criterion for initiating connection re-establishment to said neighboring cell (505), said at least one special criterion being different from at least one criterion that is applied if said at least one condition is not fulfilled. The invention furthermore relates to a method and an arrangement in a network node (800) for controlling connection re-establishment between the network and a user equipment (700).
摘要:
Techniques for the secure generation of a set of encryption keys to be used for communication between a wireless terminal and an assisting base station in a dual-connectivity scenario. An example method includes generating (810) an assisting security key for the assisting base station, based on an anchor base station key. The generated assisting security key is sent (820) to the assisting base station, for use by the assisting base station in encrypting data traffic sent to the wireless terminal or in generating one or more additional assisting security keys for encrypting data traffic sent to the wireless terminal while the wireless terminal is dually connected to the anchor base station and the assisting base station. The anchor base station key, or a key derived from the anchor base station key, is used (830) for encrypting data sent to the wireless terminal by the anchor base station.
