20090111503 | Overload indicator for adjusting open loop power control parameters - The exemplary embodiments of the invention include a method, apparatus, and program to determine actions to be taken upon receiving overload indicators. In one exemplary embodiment of the invention, a method includes: determining if more than a first predetermined number of overload indicator messages are received within a first predetermined period of time. If such a determination is made that more than the first predetermined number of overload indicator messages are received within the first predetermined period of time is made, a value of a power output parameter is adjusted by decreasing the value of the power output parameter, and the adjusted value of the power output parameter is sent. If a determination is made that less than a second predetermined number of overload indicator messages are received within a second predetermined period of time, the value of the power output parameter is adjusted by increasing the value of the power output parameter, sending the adjusted value of the power output parameter is sent. | 04-30-2009 |
20130303158 | Key Performance Indicator for Operator Performance Evaluation in Communication Network Resource Sharing - In an evaluation method it is detected whether an operator k of at least a part of a communication network gets less than an agreed minimum number of resources/throughput or less than an agreed share of resources/throughput according to a sharing framework. In case it is detected that the operator k does not get less than the agreed minimum number/share of resources/throughput, it is determined that the sharing framework is not violated and this result is stored in a metric m(j). In case it is detected that the operator k gets less than the agreed minimum number/share of resources/throughput, it is detected whether the operator k has enough traffic to be served to fill the agreed minimum number/share of resources/throughput. In case it is detected that the operator k has enough traffic to be served, it is determined that the sharing framework is violated and this result is stored in the metric m(j). In case it is detected that the operator k has not enough traffic to fill its share of the resources, it is determined that the sharing framework is not violated and this result is stored in the metric m(j). | 11-14-2013 |
20150038151 | User Equipment Mobility in Networks Including Small Cells - Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for mobility estimation in networks including small cells. In one aspect there is provided a method. The method may include receiving, at a user equipment, at least one of a first time value and a second time value, the first time value being configured for use towards a small cell and configured to have a duration to inhibit a hand over of the user equipment to the small cell, the second time value being configured for use towards a macro cell; and sending, by the user equipment, a measurement report including information representative of at least one of the small cell and the macro cell, the sending being delayed by the first time value, when the user equipment is evaluating the small cell, and by the second time value, when the user equipment is evaluating the macro cell. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described. | 02-05-2015 |
20150072706 | DETERMINING A MOBILITY STATE OF A USER EQUIPMENT - It is described a method for determining a mobility state of a user equipment within a cellular network system, the cellular network system comprising a plurality of cells. The method comprises performing, by the user equipment, measurements for a predefined time period for detecting cells being within a range of the user equipment, determining a number of cells being detected during the predefined time period, and determining the mobility state of the user equipment based on the number of cells, wherein the mobility state of the user equipment is indicative for a velocity of the user equipment relatively to the plurality of cells. | 03-12-2015 |
