Abstract:
A first wireless access network node receives feedback information from a second wireless access network node that performs data offload for the first wireless access node. The feedback information relates to one or more of a radio resource usage, a buffer condition, a hardware resource usage or a link quality. In response to the feedback information, the first wireless access network node performs control of the data offload.
Abstract:
A first wireless access network node sets a data rate for communication of data between a second wireless access network node and a user equipment (UE) that is concurrently connected to the first wireless access network node and the second wireless access network node. The first wireless access network node sends information relating to the data rate to the second wireless access network node for use by the second wireless access network node in controlling data communication between the second wireless access network node and the UE.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for increasing, at a transmitter, a payload size of a communication channel having orthogonal groups, the method referencing a base orthogonal sequence set comprising orthogonal sequences that are mutually orthogonal, the orthogonal sequence set having subsets that are sub-block orthogonal with a length of four; and selecting a spreading sequence set from a plurality of spreading sequence sets, each of the plurality of spreading sequence sets comprising an orthogonal sequence set subset combined with an imaginary orthogonal sequence set subset, wherein the selecting increases payload size.
Abstract:
Described herein is a network element with a processor. The processor is configured to promote transmitting a first physical resource block (PRB) pair that contains a first demodulation reference signal (DMRS) pattern. The processor is further configured to promote transmitting a second PRB pair that contains a second DMRS pattern. The first DMRS pattern is a subset of the second DMRS pattern.
Abstract:
A local wireless access network node receives a request to offload at least a portion of data traffic for a user equipment from a macro wireless access network node to the local wireless access network node, where the user equipment is to maintain a wireless connection to the macro wireless access network node after the offload. The local wireless access network node sends a response to indicate whether the local wireless access node has accepted or denied the request.

Abstract:
Systems, methods, and apparatuses for radio resource control (RRC) signaling in wireless communication networks with data offload are provided. The radio configuration messages from a small cell to a dual connection UE may be sent by an overlay macro E-UTRAN node-B (eNB). The small cell may send the RRC messages to the macro-eNB first via a backhaul link, and the macro-eNB then transmits the messages to the UE. In some implementations, the radio configuration messages from a small cell to a dual connection UE may be sent directly from the small cell. In some other implementations, some of the RRC messages may be sent selectively to/from either the macro-cell or the small cell, or to/from both the macro-cell and the small cell. The type of RRC messages sent over the small cell and/or the macro-cell may be preconfigured or predetermined.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method of radio link monitoring (RLM) in a UE comprising the steps of: selecting a control channel type to perform RLM on, wherein the control channel type includes one or more of: a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); or an enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH); receiving a transmission on a carrier, the transmission comprising one or more reference signals; and determining the quality of the radio link using the selected control channel type and the one or more reference signals.
Abstract:
A method for communication in a wireless telecommunication network is provided. The method comprises transmitting, by a first cell, to a first UE, a first signal on a resource block configured to be shared by more than one cell; and transmitting, by a second cell, to a second UE, a second signal on the same resource block, wherein a specification of a location of the resource block is included in configuration information available to the first cell and the second cell.
