摘要:
A wireless communication device receives an indication of timing alignment of a discontinuous reception (DRX) duration, determines a timing alignment for a reception/transmission (RX/TX) switching pattern of the wireless communication device based on the timing alignment of the DRX duration, and performs half-duplex (HD) communication with a radio access node according to the RX/TX switching pattern having the determined timing alignment.

A method and system for determining whether to apply an inter-cell coordination procedure for a UE in the presence of inter-cell interference from cells, the cells including a serving cell and a plurality of interfering cells, are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method includes receiving measurements of uplink signal quality of the UE from the cells. The method also includes calculating a combined metric based on the received uplink signal quality measurements. The combined metric is compared to a serving cell threshold to determine whether to implement the inter-cell coordination procedure.

A network node may identify a location to be allocated for a multicast message within a transmission subframe based on at least information identifying the transmission subframe, and then transmit the multicast message at the identified location in the transmission subframe. A network node may also identify a transmission subframe in which to transmit a multicast message, allocate transmission resources in the transmission subframe for the multicast message, and transmit information indicating a location of the allocated transmission resources in the transmission subframe in a control signal message having a transmission power adjusted based on at least one of information identifying the transmission subframe and a code redundancy version of the multicast message.
摘要:
A node (260) of a cellular network node sends data units to a group of base stations (200). Each data unit is configured for conveying multicast data to be sent by the base stations (200) in a synchronized manner at a starting time indicated in the data unit. For each of the data units, the node (260) determines the starting time as the sum of the time of sending the data unit from the node and an offset value. Further, the node (260) obtains feedback information from the base stations (200) of the group. The feedback information indicates a deviation of the starting time indicated in one of the data units (411) from an earliest possible time of sending the multicast data from the data unit (411) by the base stations (200) of the group. Depending on the feedback information, the node (260) adapts the offset value.

摘要:
A network node identifies a fixed periodic pattern to be used for scheduling a half-duplex (HD) user equipment (UE), the fixed periodic pattern defining a sequence of at least one downlink (DL) subframe, then at least one guard period, and then at least one uplink (UL) subframe. The network node then performs DL assignments for the network node according to the fixed periodic pattern and transmits UL grants to the UE according to the fixed periodic pattern.

A node and method for extending a wake up time of a wireless user equipment (UE) are provided. The node includes a memory. The memory is configured to store data to be transmitted to the UE. The node includes a processor configured to determine if the memory is storing data to be transmitted to the UE, determine if the wake up time of the UE coincides with a periodic subframe, the periodic subframe occurring with a periodicity and cause transmission of a message for a grant to the UE if the determination is made that the memory is storing data to be transmitted to the UE and the wake up time of the UE coincides with the periodic subframe.
摘要:
A method and device for determining whether to send a measurement report to a serving cell and determining when an inter-cell coordination procedure is likely to achieve coordination gain are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method includes performing received signal quality measurements of the serving cell and a plurality of neighboring cells. The method also includes calculating a UE metric based on the received signal quality measurements of a plurality of interfering cells and based on a scaling parameter. The method further includes comparing the calculated UE metric to a threshold to determine whether to send the measurement report to the serving cell.

A method and apparatus for preventing muting of ongoing services when a new multicast traffic channel, MTCH, is to be started or stopped are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes sending a multicast control channel, MCCH, update at a start of an MCCH modification period indicating that the new MTCH is to be started during a following MCCH modification period. The method further includes sending a calculated multicast control channel service start offset, MCCH-offset, indicating when the new MTCH is to be started after an MCCH boundary.
