20130115999 | Techniques for Mitigating Interference Associated with Downlink Transmissions from a Base Station - Examples are disclosed for causing one or more subframes to be transmitted from a base station for a wireless network based on beamforming or transmission power characteristics. In some examples, an interference report may be received at a base station via a backhaul communication link. The interference report may indicate measured interference from the base station as measured at one or more wireless devices. The base station may transmit subsequent subframes in a manner to mitigate the previously reported interference. Other examples are described and claimed. | 05-09-2013 |
20130215742 | EXTENDED ACCESS BARRING (EAB) SIGNALING FOR A CORE NETWORK (CN) AND NODE - Technology for core network signaling of an extended access barring (EAB) action between a node (e.g., an eNodeB) and a core network (CN) entity (e.g., a mobility management entity (MME)) is disclosed. One method can include a node receiving from a core network entity an EAB action in an overload start message. The node can transmit EAB configuration information from the node to a wireless device based on the received EAB action. | 08-22-2013 |
20130258923 | TECHNIQUES FOR IMPROVED ENERGY-SAVINGS MANAGEMENT - Techniques for improved energy-savings management are described. In various embodiments, for example, a network management node includes a processor circuit, a communication component arranged for execution by the processor circuit to receive device tracking information from a device tracking node, and a determination component arranged for execution by the processor circuit to determine whether an eNodeB is to enter an energy-saving mode based on the device tracking information. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 10-03-2013 |
20140286159 | WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK (WLAN) TRAFFIC OFFLOADING - Technology for communicating access point (AP) information for traffic offloading is disclosed. A request may be received, at a wireless local area network (WLAN) domain manager (DM) from an evolved node B (eNB), for access point (AP) information about one or more WLAN access points (APs) for traffic offloading. The access point (AP) information may be obtained for the one or more WLAN APs, at the WLAN DM, based on at least in part operations and management (OAM) reports from the one or more WLAN APs containing the AP information. The AP information may be communicated, from the WLAN DM to the eNB via a network manager (NM), about the one or more WLAN APs to enable traffic offloading from the eNB to at least one of the ALAN APs. | 09-25-2014 |
20140295849 | HANDOVER OF USER EQUIPMENT WITH NON-GBR BEARERS - Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for handover of user equipment (UE) having non-guaranteed bit rate (non-GBR) bearers. In some embodiments, an access node (AN) may include UE logic to identify a UE having at least one non-GBR bearer, target AN logic to identify a target AN to take over service of the UE from the AN, and handover source logic, coupled with the UE logic and the target AN logic, to provide handover request information to the target AN. The handover request information may include a value representative of realized throughput of the at least one non-GBR bearer. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed. | 10-02-2014 |
20150092553 | SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES FOR TRAFFIC OFFLOADING - Wireless communication traffic can be offloaded from a user equipment (UE) to two wireless points of access. For example, user equipment (UE) is connected to a radio access network (RAN) using a radio access technology (RAT) such as a long term evolution (LTE) network. The UE can determine which network capabilities are available for traffic offloading and adapt to the capabilities presented. In one embodiment, the UE can determine whether the network supports three different configurations and configure traffic offloading to operate within the network conditions: (1) RAN rules without access network detection and selection function (ANDSF), (2) ANDSF in conjunction with RAN rules or (3) enhanced ANDSF with RAN assistance. | 04-02-2015 |
20150139087 | LAWFUL INTERCEPTION FOR DEVICE-TO-DEVICE (D2D) COMMUNICATION - Technology for a lawful interception of a proximity service (e.g., device-to-device (D2D) communication) provided to user equipments (UEs) is disclosed. In an example, a method can include an evolved Node B (eNB) transmitting a proximity service setup message to a first UE to setup D2D communication with a second UE. The eNB can transmit a lawful interception message to the first UE or the second UE to provide lawful interception of the D2D communication. The eNB can receive packets associated with the D2D communication from the first UE or the second UE. The eNB can communicate the received packets from the first UE and the second UE to the core network (CN) to be copied. | 05-21-2015 |
20150195706 | AUTONOMOUS ENHANCED NODE B - Embodiments allow one or more eNBs that become isolated from core network entities (e.g., evolved packet core entities such as mobility management entity, serving gate way, packet data network gateway, and so forth) to form a resilient mode network. Such a network can function in a limited fashion and provide for UE to UE communications within the resilient mode network coverage area. One or more of the eNBs function as an autonomous eNB and provide a subset of core network functions that allow UE to UE communications within the resilient mode network coverage area. Embodiments disclosed herein select which eNB functions as the autonomous eNB and then the other eNBs establish an S1-MME and/or S1-U interface with the autonomous eNB. | 07-09-2015 |
