Abstract:
A user apparatus having a primary cell on a licensed band is requested to scan an unlicensed band, the scanning being performed with a raster. The thus obtained availability of the unlicensed band is used for determining a secondary cell. To improve the reparation of the traffic between the primary cell and the secondary cell, timing information measurements are carried out which can be exploited to avoid interferences between the primary and the secondary cell.
Abstract:
A technique, including estimating at a communication device a quality of service available to said communication device via a radio access network; making a comparison of the estimated quality of service against a quality of service currently achieved via an access point operating outside of the radio access network; and deciding whether or not to transfer from said access point to said radio access network at least partly with reference to the result of said comparison.
Abstract:
It is provided a method, comprising monitoring if a cell is being started; selecting a temporary physical cell identifier among a predefined pool; instructing the cell to adopt the selected temporary physical cell identifier if the cell is being started; determining a permanent physical cell identifier for the cell, wherein the permanent physical cell identifier does not belong to the predefined pool and is different from each used physical cell identifier, wherein the used physical cell identifiers are indicated in measurement reports; checking if a first time has elapsed after the cell has been instructed to adopt the selected temporary physical cell identifier or a second time has elapsed after the cell has been started; replacing the selected temporary physical cell identifier by the determined permanent physical cell identifier if the first time or the second time has elapsed.
Abstract:
There are disclosed measures for enhancing network performance monitoring. Such measures may for example comprise receiving a report on measurements of terminal-related network performance parameters from a terminal, acquiring information of access network-related network performance parameters, and combining the received terminal-related network performance parameters and the acquired access network-related network performance parameters into a combined network performance report.
Abstract:
There is provided a method including generating, by a network element, at least one transmission gap within data transmission performed by the network element, transmitting a control message to at least one terminal device, wherein the control message includes a first request to perform, by the at least one terminal device, a first interference measurement during the at least one transmission gap, and wherein the control message further includes a second request to perform, by the at least one terminal device, a second interference measurement during the said data transmission, receiving, from the at least one terminal device, an interference report including information that is at least partly based on the first and the second interference measurements, and providing communication resources on the basis of the received interference report.
Abstract:
A method including storing, at a first apparatus, information for identifying at least one data bearer, wherein the information includes an address and at least one further identifier for the data bearer; and wherein the data bearer is configured between s the aid first apparatus and one of a second apparatus and a third apparatus; and in response to receiving information, moving the at least one data bearer between the second apparatus and the third apparatus.
