20090010269 | Method And Apparatus For Routing Packets - Packets may be routed in a heterogeneous communications network as follows: for a set of packets comprising at least one packet to be transmitted from a sending node, said sending node being able to handle communication according to at least two access technologies, —selecting in a selection unit in the sending node an access technology for use when transmitting the set of packets, —selecting a receiving node in the network to which to transmit the set of packets among nodes in the network that are able to handle said selected access technology—transmitting the set of packets to the selected receiving node using the selected access technology. Alternatively, a set of packets may be transmitted to one or more nodes using at least two different access technologies. Depending on the transmission quality, one node may be selected to forward the set of packets. | 01-08-2009 |
20090109902 | METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT IN A COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - The object of the present invention is to provide a mechanism for a more efficient carrier search. The object is achieved by a method for sending a signal in a first node. The first node communicates with a second node via radio communication, which radio communication is performed by multi carrier transmission. The first node uses a carrier, being associated with a frequency range. The method comprises the step of transmitting an end-marker signal within or close to the frequency range. The end-marker signal is intended to be received and used by the second node for identifying the frequency range of the used carrier. | 04-30-2009 |
20090147738 | Method And Arrangement For Coding And Scheduling In Packet Data Communication Systems - The method and arrangement according to the present invention relates to of scheduling and coding in communication systems utilizing automatic repeat request (ARQ) and/or multihop scheduling and forwarding. According to the inventive method the receiving nodes selectively stores received information, also overheard information, as a priori information and feed back information about their respective stored a priori information to a sending node. The sending node forms composite data packets by jointly encoding and scheduling multiple data packets, which composite data packets are transmitted to receiving nodes. Upon receiving a composite data packet the receiving nodes uses their stored a priori information in the process of extracting data for themselves from the composite data packets. | 06-11-2009 |
20090268662 | Method and Arrangement for Bi-Directional Relating in Wireless Communication Systems - The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in a relaying radio node and/or in a sending/receiving radio node, adapted for use in a relaying communication system. The relaying node is in bidirectional communication with at least a first and a second sending/receiving radio node, and the relaying radio node receives at least a first signal carrying at least first data and a second signal carrying at least second data. The relaying node generates a reduced representation of at least the first and second signal, with a reduced information content as compared to the first and second data, by a joint non-linearly encoding operation, and transmits the reduced representation to at least the first and the second communication node. The first and second sending/receiving node can extract data from the reduced representation by a non-linear decoding operation using stored a priori information. | 10-29-2009 |

20100195622 | Method of Maintaining Broadcast Service Continuity - An access node in the boundary area of a single frequency network service area transmits a boundary indication to the mobile terminals in the boundary area to notify the mobile terminals that they are approaching the boundaries of the single frequency network. The mobile terminals receiving the boundary indications may then take steps to maintain continuity of broadcast services when the mobile terminals leave the service area of the single frequency network. | 08-05-2010 |
20110004797 | METHODS AND ARRANGEMENTS IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - The present invention relates to methods and arrangements that enable continuous adaptive control of the number of autonomous HARQ retransmissions. This is achieved by a solution, where the UE and the radio base station are using a number of autonomous HARQ retransmissions that can be adjusted based on observations in the UE and/or the radio base station. What is observed is the amount of HARQ retransmissions needed for the radio base station to correctly decode the latest received data packet(s). | 01-06-2011 |
20110007755 | COMMUNICATION WITH COMPRESSED HEADERS - Communication efficiency may be enhanced by using compressed headers. In an example embodiment, a method is performed by a transmitting device to reduce header size. A mapping is created between a logical channel identifier and a compressed logical channel identifier. The compressed logical channel identifier occupies fewer bits than the logical channel identifier. The mapping is transmitted to a receiving device. A compressed header that includes the compressed logical channel identifier is formulated. A communication that includes the compressed header is transmitted to the receiving device. In another example embodiment, a method is performed by a receiving device to decode a header having a reduced size. A mapping and a communication including a compressed header are received. A compressed logical channel identifier is extracted from the compressed header. A logical channel identifier is recovered from the compressed logical channel identifier using the mapping. | 01-13-2011 |
20110038352 | TTI BUNDLING INDICATION TO NON-SERVING BASE STATION - The technology applies to a cellular radio communication system in which a mobile radio terminal transmits information in transmission time intervals (TTIs) that is received by a serving base station and by one or more non-serving base stations. A number N of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmissions transmitted together by the mobile terminal is determined. An HARQ transmission includes a first transmission, one or more retransmissions of the first transmission, or both. An indication of the number N of HARQ transmissions is provided either directly or indirectly to the one or more non-serving base stations so that the one or more non-serving base stations can take the number N into account when combining HARQ transmissions received from the mobile terminal. | 02-17-2011 |
20120008563 | Power Backoff for Multi-Carrier Uplink Transmissions - Teachings presented herein provide reduced computational complexity and/or memory requirements for a mobile terminal to determine the power backoff required for a multi-carrier uplink signal. In particular, the mobile terminal determines whether its power headroom falls below a pre-defined power headroom threshold, indicating that it is headroom limited. If so, it5 quantizes power allocated to each carrier of the multi-carrier uplink signal according to a pre-defined quantization policy. In doing so, the mobile terminal thereby reduces the possible configurations that may be selected for the multi-carrier uplink signal. Thus, in one embodiment, the mobile terminal stores the required backoff in a look-up table for only the configurations that may be selected when the mobile terminal is headroom limited. This relieves 10 the memory requirements of the mobile terminal as compared to storing the required backoff for all possible configurations of the multi-carrier uplink signal. | 01-12-2012 |
