The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for communicating a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) between a transmitter unit and a receiver unit in a wireless communication network. Said PDU comprising protocol headers associated with at least a first and a second protocol layers involved in the communication and a payload to be communicated. The method comprises the step of interacting between the at least first and second protocol layers, such that the sum of the bits of the protocol headers is n-bit aligned such as octet aligned independently of non-alignment of at least one of the protocol headers comprised in the PDU.

The present invention relates to method and arrangements for using an identifier of a predefined type, e.g. an RNTI identifying one configuration on an out-band control channel for activating the configuration identifiable by that identifier. The identifier is sent from the network to the UE, when a configuration corresponding to that identifier is to be activated. This implies that both the UE and the radio base station comprise a mapping between each configuration and the corresponding identity of each configuration.

UTRAN MAC-d multiplexing of data from multiple logical channels to a single MAC-d flow is supported while reducing overhead and achieving octet alignment in MAC-d PDU length. In one embodiment, the C/T field of a multiplexed MAC-d PDU is eliminated, and the logical channels multiplexed into the MAC-d flow are mapped to a MAC-hs PQ in at least the NodeB (and preferably in the UE as well). In other embodiments, the C/T field is retained, and an octet-aligned length indicator is transmitted from the RNC to the UE. In one embodiment, the length indicator is octet-aligned by padding the MAC-d PDUs. In another embodiment, transmitters and receivers in the path from RNC to UE are configured with an offset to add to the length indicator to achieve octet alignment. The padding or offset is (8-n) bits, where n=the number of bits in C/T field.

The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for reducing a state transition time from a power saving state for a user equipment (18) in a communication network. The state transition time is reduced by retaining in the user equipment (18) one or more information parameter, such as the radio network temporary identifier for a high speed downlink shared channel (H-RNTI), when performing a state transition to said power saving state so as to enable a time reduction when said user equipment switches back from said power saving state.
摘要:
A method of controlling the establishment of a packet switched bearer or bearers for carrying multimedia information between two or more user terminals during a circuit switched voice call, the method comprising at setup of or during the voice call, predicting at one of the user terminals the likelihood that multimedia information will be exchanged between the user terminals during the voice call based upon properties stored at that terminal for the or each other user or user terminal, and automatically establishing said bearer or not, based upon the prediction.

A radio base station suitable for performing a handover operation for a LTE-variant of a radio access network comprises a transceiver and a status report requester. The transceiver is configured to facilitate wireless transmission between the radio base station and a wireless terminal over an air interface, including transmission of a radio link bearer for the connection over a downlink from the radio base station to the wireless terminal. The status report requester is configured to determine, according to one or more pre-defined criteria, whether to request from the wireless terminal a status report for a radio bearer prior to the radio base station transferring user data for the connection to another radio base station in conjunction with a handover.

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.

An object of the present invention is to provide a mechanism for improving coverage in a wireless communications system. The object is achieved by a method in a sending node (210) for transmitting a data unit to a receiving node (220). The data unit comprises a number of bits. The sending node (210) and the receiving node (220) are both comprised in a wireless communications system (200). According to the method, the sending node (210) obtains (606, 810) a value n associated with the data unit. Then, the sending node (210) selects (608, 814) a transmission time instance depending on n, such that a function exists that uniquely associates the selected transmission time instance with n. Finally, the sending node (210) transmits (612, 818) the data unit to the receiving node (220) in the selected transmission time instance, without the value n.
摘要:
A method for transmitting data flows between a network element and a number of receivers over a first channel. The method comprises the steps of: performing a link adaptation for the transmission of a data flow by said network element, and transmitting the data flow, transmitting an indication of a channel quality required for reception of the data flow on a second channel, receiving by said receivers said indication of channel quality, measuring a link quality by said receivers by monitoring a pilot channel, comparing said measured link quality with said received indication of the channel quality, and transmitting to said network element result of said comparison of said measured link quality with said received indication of the channel quality, if said result is lower than a predetermined value. The invention also relates to a network element and a user equipment.
