| 20080207207 | Self Configuring and Optimization of Cell Neighbors in Wireless Telecommunications Networks - The present invention relates to a cellular communications network and in particular to the problem of identifying cells for neighbor lists, or handover candidates when the cells are identified by a limited number of non-unique identities. The present invention includes a method for a radio base station, wherein the base station receives reports from one or more terminals in neighbor cells quality and non-unique identities. The match is sought in a neighbor cell list non-unique identity with a unique cell identity. If the match cannot be made without ambiguity, the base station causes the terminal to detect the unique cell identity. If the reason for the ambiguity is the particular cell is not included in the neighbor cell list it is included when its unique identity has been established. The uniquely identified cell is used if it is determined to perform a handover. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090176490 | Systems and Methods for Automatically Determining the Global Cell Identifier of a Neighboring Cell - The present application discloses systems and methods for automatically adding a unique identifier associated with a cell to a neighbor cell list associated with another cell. In some embodiments, the method includes: selecting a particular mobile terminal from a set of mobile terminals; instructing the particular mobile terminal to obtain and report the unique identifier; receiving from the particular mobile terminal the unique identifier; and adding the unique identifier to the neighbor cell list, wherein the step of selecting the particular mobile terminal from the set of mobile terminals comprises determining which of the mobile terminals in the set appears to have a relatively high probability of obtaining the unique identifier within a certain window of time and selecting that mobile terminal. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20090191862 | INTER-RAT/ FREQUENCY AUTOMATIC NEIGHBOR RELATION LIST MANAGEMENT - In one of its aspects the technology concerns a method of operating a telecommunications system comprising a serving radio base station and a candidate radio base station. The serving radio base station comprises a radio base station to which a wireless mobile station provides measurement reports. The serving radio base station and the candidate radio base station are different with respect to at least one of frequency and radio access technology. The method comprises the serving radio base station allowing the mobile station to obtain information broadcasted by the candidate radio base station. The information is either information for locating Cell Global Identity (CGI) of the candidate radio base station or the Cell Global Identity (CGI) itself of the radio base station. The mobile station obtains the information from the candidate radio base station during at least one reading gap. The reading gap is a time period in which the mobile station does not receive information from the serving radio base station. | 07-30-2009 |

| 20100216453 | COMPENSATING FOR CELL OUTAGE USING PRIORITIES - A device receives information associated with multiple cells, and determines a priority for each of the multiple cells based on the received information. The device also assigns each of the determined priorities to a corresponding one of the multiple cells, detects an outage associated with one of the multiple cells, and provides a temporary service to the one of the multiple cells from one or more adjacent cells with priorities less than or equal to the priority assigned to the one of the multiple cells. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20100331025 | Method For Automatically Selecting A Physical Cell Identity (PCI) Of A Long Term Evolution (LTE) Radio Cell - In a Long Term Evolution (LTE) cellular radio system method of selecting a physical cell id (PCI) of a LTE cell is obtained by reporting PCIs of neighbors and also a parameter indicating each neighboring cell's relevance also termed visibility to the cell. A new cell added in a cellular radio, system can then make an improved selection of a PCI already at the very first neighbor relation establishment; even if all available PCIs are already used in the vicinity. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110128862 | OPTIMIZING A QUALITY OF SERVICE (QOS) VIA LOAD BALANCING - A device detects an overload in a serving cell of a wireless network based on information associated with the serving cell, and determines, when the overload in the serving cell is detected, user equipment in the serving cell that are candidates to move to a target cell of the wireless network based on calculated user throughputs of user equipment in the serving cell. The device also selects one or more of the candidate user equipment to move to the target cell, and moves the selected user equipment to the target cell. | 06-02-2011 |
