20080259961 | Data Unit Relay Device and Method of Controlling the Same - A method of controlling a data unit relay device is described, applied to a relay ARQ protocol in accordance with which a source peer sends data units to a destination peer via at least one relay peer. The relay ARQ protocol provides for a first type and second type of receipt information, where the first type is indicative of a correct receipt at a relay peer, and the second type is indicative of a correct receipt at the destination peer. In a data unit relay device that is arranged for deliberately dropping data units of the relay ARQ protocol under one or more predetermined conditions, a procedure is provided for indicating to the source peer and the destination peer that a data unit has been deliberately dropped and for identifying the deliberately dropped data unit, such that the source and destination peer may perform retransmission control for the dropped data unit as if it had been successfully received at the destination peer | 10-23-2008 |

The base station is comprised in a radio access network. The base station is adapted to communicate over a radio link with a user equipment located in a cell in the radio access network. The cell is served by the base station and is surrounded by neighbour cells. The method comprises the step of sending a message to the user equipment, using a point-to-point connection over the radio link. The message comprises neighbour cell information to assist the user equipment in handling mobility in idle mode | 02-04-2010 |
20100046374 | Method and receiver for controlling the conformance of a data flow in a communication system to a traffic definition - A method is described for controlling the conformance of a data flow in a communication system to a traffic definition. The communication system comprises a transmitter and a receiver and data packets transporting the data flow are sent from the transmitter to the receiver. The receiver sends responses identifying received data packets to the transmitter, and the transmitter comprises a control function which controls the number of sent data packets for which no response is received according to a limit for the number of outstanding data packets. In the method, a conditioning criterion is obtained for the data flow, the conditioning criterion being associated with the traffic definition. The receiver determines a conformance parameter for the received data packets transporting the data flow. The limit and/or the sending of the responses is modified according to the conditioning criterion and the determined conformance parameter for controlling the number of transmitted data packets. A receiver and a software program embodying the invention are also described. | 02-25-2010 |

20100113076 | Method and a Device for Reduced Interference in a Cellular Access System - A method for use in a cellular system comprising a plurality of base stations with corresponding cells, in which system the communication between users in a cell and the base station is divided into an up link period and a down link period, the method comprising letting a controlling node instruct the base stations regarding: a first point in time when the base station should start transmitting a control signal; a second point in time when the base station should start to listen for control signals from other base stations and measure their time of arrival and signal strength; a third point in time when the base station should cease listening for control signal; and a fourth point in time when the base station should transmit the measurements results to a receiving node in the system. | 05-06-2010 |
20100136989 | Method and Radio Base Station for Effective Spectrum Utilization - The present invention relates to radio communication in a cellular network and in particular to the sharing of a frequency spectrum with another network. The object is to enable robust communication in the shared band. The solution is to allocate a third band for communication in a cell. A L1/L2 control channel may be transmitted in the third band only, whereas data can be transmitted in the shared band. The L1/L2 control channel support the data communication in the shared band. The invention relates to a method and a radio base station. | 06-03-2010 |

20100202469 | QUEUE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND METHODS - A system and method are provided for managing a queue of packets transmitted from a sender to a receiver across a communications network. The sender has a plurality of sender states and a queue manager situated in between the sender and receiver may have a corresponding plurality of queue manager states. The queue manager has one or more queue management parameters which may have distinct predetermined values for each of the queue manager states. When the queue manager detects an event that is indicative of a change in the sender's state, the queue manager may change its state correspondingly. | 08-12-2010 |
