20110075744 | Allocating Resources Within Communication System - The present invention is related to a method for allocating resources in a communications system. The method includes receiving a matrix of priorities assigned to a plurality of services at a plurality of user levels; and allocating resources to a bearer for a station of the communication system based at least in part upon the priority assigned to a service provided over the bearer at the user level associated with a subscriber. | 03-31-2011 |
20120063413 | Communication Resource Allocation Strategy - A scheduling processor allocates a time slot of a communication protocol to a user equipment for data transmission based on received control data of the same or another user equipment in a current time slot and received user data of the same or another user equipment in a preceding time slot, while ignoring user data of the same or any other user equipment received in the current time slot. The scheduling processor also allocates a frequency resource to the user equipment. A control channel managing processor allocates signaling resources on a control channel for the submission of control information to the user equipment, which informs of the time slot allocated by the time domain scheduling processor as well as of the frequency resource allocated by the frequency domain scheduling processor. | 03-15-2012 |
20120207124 | Method and Device for Allocating Resources of a Control Channel in a Wireless Communication System - A method and a device for allocating resources of a control channel are provided, wherein said control channel is a control channel of a mobile network, wherein the control channel conveys uplink and downlink allocations, wherein the distribution of uplink and downlink allocations is determined based on traffic requirements. Furthermore, a communication system is suggested comprising said device. | 08-16-2012 |
20130155855 | Increasing Efficiency of Admission Control in a Network - An apparatus and a method is provided, by which a penetration of terminals supporting a congestion indication scheme in a network or a part of the network is determined, and a load threshold is dynamically adjusted according to the penetration of terminals supporting a congestion indication scheme, wherein the load threshold is used for controlling load in the network or the part of the network. | 06-20-2013 |
20140177574 | Allocating Resources Within A Communication System - The present invention is related to a method for allocating resources in a communications system. The method comprises receiving a matrix of priorities assigned to a plurality of services at a plurality of user levels; and allocating resources to a bearer for a station of the communication system based at least in part upon the priority assigned to a service provided over the bearer at the user level associated with a subscriber. | 06-26-2014 |
20140235245 | Optimizing a Handover Behavior of a Mobile Radio Communication Network Based on an Extended Record Being Associated with a User Equipment - It is described a method for optimizing a handover behavior of a mobile radio communication network including at least a first base station and a second base station. The method includes (a) performing a handover of a user equipment from the first base station to the second base station, (b) adding an information element representing a property of the radio link between the user equipment and the first base station to a data record being associated with the user equipment, (c) transferring the data record from the first base station to the second base station and (d) optimizing the handover behavior of the mobile radio communication network based on the added information element. It is further described a first base station and a second base station, which in conjunction which each other, are configured for carrying out the described handover behavior optimization method. | 08-21-2014 |

20080212468 | Apparatus, methods and computer program products providing estimation of activity factor and enhanced radio resource management - In one non-limiting, exemplary embodiment, a method includes: estimating an activity factor for a priority class based at least in part on a provided bit rate for the priority class and a guaranteed bit rate of the priority class; and using the estimated activity factor to estimate at least one network-related parameter. In another non-limiting, exemplary embodiment, a method includes: obtaining a measurement for a priority class; and estimating an activity factor for the priority class based at least in part on the measurement and a quality of service attribute of the priority class. As a non-limiting example, exemplary embodiments of this invention employ a framework providing an estimation of effective activity factor per service priority indicator (SPI) class to provide, for example, enhanced quality of service awareness in radio resource management functionality, such as for estimation of the amount of power used per SPI class/group. | 09-04-2008 |
20080225729 | Apparatus, methods and computer program products implementing fast bearer prioritization in a MAC-HS packet scheduler based on required activity detection - Apparatus, methods and computer program products provide fast instantaneous overload control during scheduling operations involving users in a wireless communications network who are candidates to be scheduled in a next transmission time interval. Apparatus detect congestion conditions in a wireless communications network by determining an instantaneous operating region of a scheduler (e.g., a medium access control-high speed scheduler) based on required activity detection and prioritize users in a scheduling candidate set based on the cost of a user. In a variant, this may be implemented by combining part of the required activity detection algorithm with a per-bearer cost function. In one implementation, this will limit the number of users that suffer during momentary congestion in the wireless communications network. | 09-18-2008 |
