| 20110092167 | Methods, Apparatuses, System, and Related Computer Program Product for Reference Signaling - It is disclosed a method including creating inquiry information related to an evaluation of at least one network terminal, and transmitting the created inquiry information in a long-range reference signal; a method including receiving the inquiry information in the long-range signal, establishing, based on the received inquiry information, report information related to a quality of the long-range reference signal, and transmitting the established report information; and a method including receiving the report information, and evaluating, based on the received report information, at least one network terminal. | 04-21-2011 |
| 20110096687 | Mechanism for Automated Re-Configuration of an Access Network Element - A mechanism for controlling resources and/or settings of an access network element like a base station is provided which allows an autonomous reconfiguration of, for example, the antenna configuration based on a set of performance indicators in a base station. The base station can reconfigure itself without the need of operator control so that during periods with low capacity demands the base station will reconfigure correspondingly, which may include a reduction of active cells by turning off the power for a part of the installed equipment. | 04-28-2011 |

| 20090221294 | Radio Resource Management in a Mobile Radio Communication System - A method operates a radio communication system in which network radio devices use radio resources in order to communicate with subscriber stations. A first network radio device performs direct tuning with a second network radio device using the respectively used radio resources. The first and/or the second network radio device send(s) a request for a decision about radio resources to be used by the first and/or the second network radio device to a device. Subsequent to the request, the first and/or the second network radio device receive(s) information from the device about radio resources to be used by the first and/or the second network radio device. A radio communication system carries out the method. | 09-03-2009 |
| 20090245185 | Method of Scheduling Groups of Mobile Users - A method of scheduling groups of mobile users includes setting a group identifier for each mobile user and scheduling physical layer resources at a base station for those users requiring resources. The physical layer resources are divided into sub-resources shared between mobile users having the same group identifier and provide an indication with the physical layer resources of the occurrence and position within the physical layer resources of the sub-resources allocated to each mobile user in the group. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20090245186 | METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING DATA IN PACKETS IN A RADIO COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - The subject matter relates to a method for transmitting data in packets in a radio communications system, according to which the receipt of data packets from at least two terminals is confirmed by a base station of the radio communications. The confirmation of receipt takes place without an overlap in time, using identical resources. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20090290597 | Downscaling system bandwidth - A larger second bandwidth is fitted to a first transmission bandwidth by blanking PRBs at one or both edges of the larger second bandwidth. A first set of control channels is mapped to unblanked PRBs of the second bandwidth using a restricted set of physical cell identities that map only to the unblanked PRBs. A second control channel is punctured so that after it is interleaved and cyclically shifted the punctured CCEs fall on the blanked PRBs, and this second control channel is power compensated for the punctured CCEs. The first set and the second control channels are assigned in view of the puncturing and blanked PRBs, an IFFT for the larger second bandwidth is performed on a signal using zeros at the blanked PRBs, the signal is filtered to the first bandwidth and transmitted over a bandwidth not to exceed the first bandwidth. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20110045865 | De-Centralized Transmit Power Optimization - In accordance with the exemplary embodiments of the invention there is at least a method, apparatus, and executable computer program to perform operations including detecting that a cell in a wireless communication system is able to selectively increase or decrease its transmit power by an amount, where the cell is configured with a transmit power and a parameter that indicates a maximum difference in power change, resulting from a change in transmit power, that can exist between a power change of the cell and a power change of a neighbor cell, examining, at the cell, a signal comprising at least one value received from at least one neighbor cell, based on the examining, determining that a transmit power change is possible, modifying a value associated with the transmit power, and modifying the transmit power of the cell by the modified value, and signaling the modified value to the at least one neighbor cell in the wireless communication system. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110110311 | Exchange of Scheduling Strategies for Interference Coordination - A cell informs surrounding cells about an orthogonal resource allocation strategy of the informing cell so as to induce cooperative behavior among the cells. The informing cell also receives resource allocation strategies from the surrounding cells. Each cell allocates its orthogonal resources according to the mutually exchanged information. The result is to reduce interference in the system. For example, a BS informs other cells on which clusters it generates a small interference, e.g., close UEs concentrated into a particular cluster, and indicate that to its neighbors. Other cells would concentrate UEs which are on the edge to the indicating cell exactly in this cluster. This would mean an “overload invitation”, i.e. inviting the neighbors to produce overload on a particular cluster. If a cell sends an overload invitation on a sufficiently large cluster, this will automatically reduce the interference in the other clusters. | 05-12-2011 |
