Abstract:
An apparatus includes one or more processors and one or more memories including computer program code. The one or more memories and the computer program code are configured, with the one or more processors, to cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: allowing a first user to learn to share available radio spectrum with a second user in a coverage area of a cell, comprising, assigning a probability distribution function of a transmit configuration based on a number of component carriers in the cell, conducting a transmission from the cell, calculating a cost for operation of the cell over a selected time interval, updating the probability distribution function at an end of the selected time interval, selecting an optimal number of component carriers for use in the transmit configuration, and using the selected optimal number of component carriers to determine a sharing operation.
Abstract:
Mobility management mechanism wherein a source base station is configured to send to a target base station the transmission rate history of a user equipment to be handed off from the source base station to the target base station.
Abstract:
There is provided a method, comprising: arranging a set of user nodes (311-322) of a social network community (302) into at least one proximity-based cluster (304, 306, 308); determining popular data content in a given proximity-based cluster; and proactively caching the popular data content to at least one user node of the proximity-based cluster, in order to enable the user nodes in the proximity-based cluster to transfer the popular data content via direct proximity-based communication between the user nodes.
