| 20080254804 | Scheduling of Mobile Terminals in a Mobile Communication System - The invention relates to a method for scheduling mobile terminals within a mobile communication network and to a base station performing this method. Further, the invention relates to a method for acting upon the reception of scheduling grants in a mobile communication system and to a mobile terminal performing this method. To allow the serving cell to control resource utilization for uplink transmissions of UEs in soft-handover, without thereby decreasing the system throughput of UEs in the serving cell which are not in soft-handover, the invention proposes to use control information transmitted via a shared absolute grant channel to the UEs along with an absolute grant, wherein the control information indicate whether the absolute grant is valid for mobile terminals in soft-handover only. | 10-16-2008 |
