    摘要: A Long Term Evolution (LTE) protocol enhancement realizes the full benefit of dual connectivity User Equipment (UE) in LTE networks by providing a toggling mechanism to alleviate uncertainty in available transmit power, or power headroom, for uplink transmissions so that efficient utilization of the uplink radio resources can be achieved in dual connectivity. A new field for Radio Resource Control (RRC) messages enables toggling for alternating transmissions to Master and Secondary Evolved Node Bs (MeNBs and SeNBs) during alternating time periods. An enhanced Media Access Control Element enables toggling by the MeNB, SeNB or UE. In one embodiment, the UE schedules uplink transmissions to a SeNB during even numbered time divisions when the UE schedules the uplink transmissions to the MeNB during the odd numbered time divisions, or during the odd numbered time divisions when the UE schedules the uplink transmissions to the MeNB during the even numbered time divisions.

    摘要: A 3GPP LTE protocol enhancement may realize the full benefit of dual connectivity in Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks by providing a mechanism to carry Radio Resource Control (RRC) messages and/or Information Elements (IE)s from a Secondary Evolved Node B (SeNB) to User Equipment (UE) via Master Evolved Node B (MeNB) RRC messages. Novel downlink (DL) Common Control Channel (CCCH) and Dedicated Control Channel (DCCH) messages, and augmented messages having Information Elements (IE)s for relaying RRC messages from a SeNB to a UE via a MeNB, are defined. Modifications to ASN.1 program coding of LTE 3rd Generation Partnership Project specifications to enable RRC messages from the MeNB to relay RRC information from the SeNB to the UE are provided. In one embodiment, the UE receives, from a MeNB, an RRC message comprising information relayed from a SeNB and interprets the RRC message for control channel and radio resource configuration information from the SeNB.

    摘要: A 3GPP LTE protocol enhancement realizes the full benefit of discontinuous reception (DRX) in Long Term Evolution networks by coordinating and aligning DRX operations for conserving power and timing overhead. A dual connectivity enabled User Equipment (UE) comprising a processor and transceiver is configured to align DRX configuration between counterpart Evolved Node Bs (eNB)s, wherein counterpart eNBs are a Master eNB (MeNB) and a Secondary eNB (SeNB) simultaneously connected to the UE, communicate system frame timing and system frame number (SFN) information between the counterpart eNBs, align DRX start offset (drxStartOffset) values for the counterpart eNBs according to the communicated system frame timing and SFN information to compensate for offsets in system frame timing, and allow the start of a DRX ON duration at specific frame or sub-frame times determined by the drxStartOffset values, after the expiration of a DRX inactivity timer.
