Abstract: A method for location validation of a UE in a cellular communications system uses measurements on a very low power "presence cell" in order to determine whether a UE is close to the presence cell rather than trying to provide this validation of proximity to the presence cell by accessing service through the presence cell. When the owner of the UE is performing a transaction (for example, a cash withdrawal at a cash machine) for which it is required to verify that their UE is in the immediate vicinity of where that transaction is taking place, a location validation centre may request that the UE takes specific measurements of the signal strength of a cell identified by a particular cell identifier which has been assigned to the presence cell. If the UE can detect the specified presence cell can report this to the location validation centre thereby confirming its location.

Abstract: The invention facilitates the implementation of clusters of small cells or radio heads or Home Node Bs (HNB) (102, 103, 104) managed by a local standard-luh enterprise gateway, connected to a standard release 8/9 HNB-GW. The enterprise gateway sends an HNB Registration Request corresponding to each small cell or radio head that it manages to a Home Node B Gateway over the standard luh interface, thereby presenting a single logical interface to the Home Node B Gateway (HNB-GW) that appears to the HNB-GW as a collection of luh-standard HNBs. This provides the enterprise gateway with a set of call processing and radio resources that it can implement as it wishes, but using standard messaging to control the HNBGW's view of those resources. A further advantage of the invention is the ability to permit hand-in of a user equipment from a macrocell to a small cell.

Abstract translation: 本发明有助于实现由标准版本8/9 HNB-GW连接的由本地标准企业网关管理的小型小区或无线电头或家庭节点B（HNB）（102,103,104）的集群。 企业网关通过标准luh接口向家庭节点B网关发送对应于其管理的每个小小区或无线电头的HNB注册请求，从而向出现的家庭节点B网关（HNB-GW）呈现单个逻辑接口 以HNB-GW作为集合的标准HNB。 这为企业网关提供了可以根据需要实现的一组呼叫处理和无线电资源，但是使用标准消息传递来控制HNBGW对这些资源的看法。 本发明的另一个优点是允许用户设备从宏小区到小单元的接入。

The method comprises, at a Network Operator allocating at least one public land mobile network, PLMN, identifier, ID, to at least one service offered by the at least one mobile network operator, wherein the allocated PLMN ID is distinct from said mobile network operator's normal PLMN ID; and assigning the at least one PLMN ID as an Equivalent PLMN (EPLMN) ID for Opted-In mobile handsets only. The method further comprises, at the at least one base station: broadcasting the at least one distinct PLMN ID; and supporting provision of a range of services to the at least one mobile handset on an individual opt-in or opt-out basis based on the assigned EPLMN ID. In this manner, a provision of user control of opt-in or opt-out of particular services is supported, such that individual mobile handsets will discover and access the appropriate base stations to access services. In this manner, end users are able to control whether their handset automatically provides access to particular services provided by the network operator.

Abstract: An access point (104) for a cellular communication system is arranged to control the transmit power of its pilot signal by switching the pilot signal periodically between an "on" state and an "off" state with configurable "on" and "off' times. The "on" time is set to be long enough for a wireless communication unit (105) to perform power measurements of the pilot signal. This reduces the likelihood of pilot signal interference in neighbouring cells. The access point (104) may also switch over to operating in a continuous pilot signal transmission mode in order to improve a handover or cell selection process. The access point (104) can also be arranged to transmit the mark:space ratio of the pilot signal for reception by a user equipment (105). This permits the user equipment (105) to modify its RSCP and Ec/No calculations accordingly.
