The method comprises: the active base node transmitting data to the wireless device in a frequency block, being during a scheduling period the only frequency block providing data to said wireless device, submitting the data dedicated for the wireless device in one first subframe of the frequency block, followed by at least one second subframe without data dedicated to the wireless device.
Abstract:
A method for detecting a jamming transmitter affecting a communication user equipment, operating in a cellular network supporting communication in a time-division manner, including at least one active base station, on which the user equipment is camping. In the method, the user equipment detects that at least one downlink radio channel from the active base station is not decodable, measures signal levels received on said downlink radio channel for a plurality of time units, analyzes said signal level measurements, and in case at least one time unit is detected with a signal level exceeding a predefined threshold, detects a jamming transmitter by verifying that, in a predefined amount of successive time units, the pattern of a first time unit with signal level exceeding the predefined threshold, directly followed by a second time unit with a signal level below the predefined threshold, is not detected.
Abstract:
A method for operating a wireless communication device in a cellular network comprises the steps of: determining power consumption criteria for at least one first time period containing at least one data transmission, carrying out a data transmission session, in case that after said data transmission session the wireless communication device has changed from a first base node to a second base node of the cellular network: determining power consumption criteria for at least one second time period containing at least one data transmission on a second base node, comparing power consumption criteria of the first time period with power consumption criteria of the second time period, carrying out a cell reselection to the first base node, in case at the first time period the determined power consumption criteria indicate a lower power consumption than at the second time period.

Abstract:
A method for operating a wireless communication device comprising a communication unit comprising a radio mode decision unit and a transceiver unit, the radio mode decision unit further maintaining a set of network operation modes, the wireless communication device further comprising a controlling appliance, interconnected with the communication unit by means of a command interface. The communication unit ascertains at least one communication behavior parameterization conforming to a preconfigured communication behavior demand of a cellular network1 The controlling appliance submits a transport template dataset comprising a data element relating to an envisaged communication behavior to the communication unit by means of the command interface. The radio mode decision unit determines, for an imminent data exchange session of the wireless communication device with the cellular network by means of the transceiver unit, one of said network operation modes by taking into account said communication behavior parameterization and said transport template dataset.
Abstract:
A method for operating a wireless device within a cellular network having at least two base nodes and providing common channels and at least one downlink non-common channel. The wireless device decodes at least one common channel and the downlink non-common channel, and performs the steps of determining a value relative to the total amount of resources provided by one of the base nodes, determining a value relative to the amount of resources provided by the one base node for the common channels out of the total resources, determining a value relative to the amount of resources suitable of being received by the wireless device, calculating the share of usable resources in comparison to said total resources excluding common resources, and adapting the operation of the wireless device within the cellular network in dependence of the calculated share of usable resources.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a wireless communication device (UE) configured to be operating in a wireless cellular network supporting a wireless technology standard. For solving the problem of blockage of the UE in regards with one cellular network the UE makes a comparison of communication conditions in downlink and in uplink in order to detect unbalanced communication conditions between downlink and uplink channels and, in case downlink communication conditions are acceptable, but uplink communication conditions show a degradation, initiate an inter-RAT reselection.
