| 20080212615 | Method and Apparatus for Communicating Data in a Communications System - Disclosed are a user equipment and a communications node for communicating data in a communications system including a plurality of user equipments, as well as a method for communicating the data by a user equipment and a method for communicating data by a communications node, wherein data are transmitted from the communications node via a downlink shared channel and received by the user equipment. The user equipment comprises an acknowledger which provides uplink acknowledgements with respect to downlink shared channel transmission for user equipments without a dedicated connection which acknowledgements are received by an acknowledgement receiver included in the communications node. The uplink acknowledgements are transferred through a common uplink feedback channel. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20090257378 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING A REAL-TIME COMMUNICATIONS SERVICE - A real-time media session is established between user equipment and a media communication server via a serving access network. According to the Invention, dummy data (e.g. a dummy message) is sent in order to maintain a dedicated channel during the inactive periods of a real-time media session or to trigger an early setup of a dedicated channel in the access network. In this manner, user equipment logged on to a real-time media (e.g. PoC) session are prevented from going to a radio resource idle state, thus avoiding potential long extra delays during real-time media (e.g. PoC) service usage. The invention further allows the sending and receiving user equipment to set up dedicated channels (DCH) already during the start-to-talk procedure of the transmitting user equipment, which in turn potentially reduces end-to-end delays during the conversation. | 10-15-2009 |
| 20090268676 | Apparatus, Method and Computer Program Product Providing Usage of E-Dch as Rach Shared Channel - Apparatus, methods and computer program products in a wireless communications system provide an enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) for use by user equipment operating in the wireless communications system for use in conjunction with the random access procedure. The user equipment has circuitry to request a HS random access channel and, in response to receiving an assignment from a Node B of a dedicated mode channel for use as the random access channel, to send uplink data in a random access fashion over the assigned dedicated mode channel while receiving feedback from the Node B over at least one downlink L | 10-29-2009 |
| 20110275359 | Carrier Aggregation For Two Radio Systems - A method includes enabling interoperability between different types of wireless communication systems operating with different types of air interfaces to provide downlink radio resource aggregation for a user equipment. Enabling includes establishing a first connection between a medium access control (MAC) protocol layer of a first wireless communication system and a physical layer of the first wireless communication system; establishing a second connection between the MAC protocol layer of the first wireless communication system and a MAC protocol layer of a second wireless communication system; using the first connection, performing wireless communications with the user equipment via one or more component carriers over a first air interface of the first wireless communication system; and communicating data over the second connection, the data used in wireless communications via one or more component carriers over a second air interface of the second wireless communication system. Apparatus and program products are also disclosed. | 11-10-2011 |
