If more than one carrier is available, the number of UEs, their radio conditions and load of carriers are checked periodically. If the carrier is busy only with MIMO and its load is higher than the load of the remaining carriers, diversity CPICH of STTD is selected; otherwise and only if the UEs vulnerable to STTD with good radio conditions exceed a certain number, the S-CPICH is selected. The RNC can reconfigure the network from transmitting MIMO traffic with STTD to using MIMO with S-CPICH or vice versa dynamically by periodical check of the load and UEs criteria for configuration change. | 04-14-2011 |

20120113797 | Method and Network Entity for Active Set Update in Wide Area Mobile Networks - The described method provides a Network Controller (e.g., RNC) with an active set update procedure for application when activating STTD in the 3G networks. To avoid any call drop due to misalignments between the respective transmission diversity mode configurations of cells and the presence/absence of support for transmission diversity in user terminals, STTD mode is deactivated, in cases where the terminal is rejecting the Active Set Update message due to ‘invalid configuration’. The misalignments between the respective transmission diversity mode configurations may arise in a number of scenarios: handover from a cell with STTD deactivated to a cell with STTD activated, handover from a cell with STTD activated to a cell with STTD deactivated, or handover between cells with STTD activated. In all cases the solution consists of indicating to the UE the STTD Off configuration to obtain a success active set update procedure irrespective of the true configuration status. | 05-10-2012 |
