20080253336 | Multi-Carrier CQI Feedback Method and Apparatus - A radio base station transmits data symbols to a mobile terminal on multiple frequency carriers, e.g., in accordance with the MC-WCDMA or cmda2000 3x air interface protocols. The radio base station instructs the mobile terminal to report channel quality measurements obtained by the terminal for the multiple carriers over the same uplink channel during successive reporting intervals. According to one embodiment, the mobile terminal reports channel quality by receiving data symbols transmitted on a plurality of frequency carriers in a multi-carrier CDMA environment and measuring channel quality for the different frequency carriers. The mobile terminal reports individual ones of the channel quality measurements over the same uplink channel during successive reporting intervals. | 10-16-2008 |

20100040022 | Random Access Aligned Handover - A method and apparatus for reducing handover interruptions when a mobile device executes handover including a random access procedure is described herein. When handover is desirable, a time offset associated with a random access opportunity is determined. The time offset relates the timing of the next random access opportunity to the frame timing of a target access point. Based on the time offset, a network element, e.g., the mobile device, a serving access point, or a mobility management entity, determines a handover start time. Handover is executed at the determined start time to generally align the beginning of the handover execution with the beginning of the next random access opportunity, and therefore, to reduce handover interruption. | 02-18-2010 |
20100074276 | LENGTH INDICATOR OPTIMIZATION - A method, node device, signal, and instruction set to reduce the size of data packets in a telecommunications network. The invention provides a solution wherein a size of SDU position identifiers in a header of a packet data unit is optimized depending on the actual size of the packet data unit, reducing the amount of data sent in the telecommunication network. | 03-25-2010 |
20100135220 | Method and Arrangement for a Synchronized HSDPA Reconfiguration - The HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access)-related reconfigurations arc synchronized between a UTRAN (UMTS Terrestial Radio Access Network) and a mobile terminal (UE), by the Node B and the RNCs (Radio Network Controllers) providing the mobile terminal with a specific reconfiguration switching time. The reconfiguration switching time is either associated with the SFN (System Frame Number) or with the CFN (Connection Frame Number). | 06-03-2010 |

20100197308 | Handover Using Dedicated Resources Reserved For A Limited Time Interval - A method and arrangement for handover wherein the handover resource (the dedicated random access preamble) is reserved by the target radio base station (RBS) for a limited period of time, thus increasing the handover efficiency and thereby allowing random access preambles to be used for initial access to a larger extent. The information about the reserved time interval is sent to the UE in the handover command message by means of a frame number offset between the source RBS and the target RBS. The UE uses the information to calculate when to send its synchronisation message to the target RBS. The frame number offset is calculated either by source RBS or by target RBS. | 08-05-2010 |
20100273451 | Method and Apparatus for Mobile Terminal Positioning Operations - In one aspect of the invention presented herein, a mobile terminal requests positioning assistance data from its supporting wireless communication network, in response to receiving a positioning request from a positioning node. Further, in response to receiving the positioning assistance data from the network, the mobile terminal sends the positioning assistance data to the positioning node. In this manner, the positioning node advantageously gains access to network-generated positioning assistance data without need for requesting it from the network. In at least one embodiment, the mobile terminal receives the positioning request from the positioning node over a User Plane (UP) connection. However, the mobile terminal sends the positioning assistance data request to the base station over a Control Plane (CP) connection, and receives the requested positioning assistance data via the CP. The terminal transfers that data to the UP and sends it to the positioning node. | 10-28-2010 |
20110076999 | METHOD AND ARRANGEMENTS IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK - A method in a node of cellular telecommunication network comprising receiving downlink quality measurements of a primary carrier frequency and at least one secondary carrier frequency and combining the received downlink quality measurements of the primary carrier frequency and secondary carrier frequency. The downlink quality measures are combined by determining a combined downlink quality measure for the downlink quality measurements of the primary carrier frequency and the at least one secondary carrier frequency and determining a difference in logarithmic scale between the downlink quality measurements of the primary carrier frequency and the combined downlink quality measure for the downlink quality measurements of the primary carrier frequency and the at least one secondary carrier frequency to be used as the combined quality measure. The method also includes evaluating whether the combined quality measure fulfills a predetermined condition and triggering an event only if the combined quality measure fulfills the predetermined condition. | 03-31-2011 |
