Abstract:
Present invention refers to a method and a system for an automatic traffic offloading in a wireless telecommunication network with both Self Organization Network (SON) and Access Network Discovery and Selection Function (ANDSF) capabilities. According to various embodiments of the invention, a user equipment collects some status information and send said information to a node of the network, where an optimization algorithm is applied and a decision for an offloading through a Wi-Fi access point in range of the UE is taken.
Abstract:
A system, method and device for error detection/estimation in OFDM communications systems is proposed. The disclosed mechanism allows an efficient error prediction in a received data block (e.g. a packet) without using error detection codes that may impair spectral efficiency (due to the overhead) especially when very small size packets are used. In order to do that, it generates a decision variable with the aim to check whether a received block has errors or not, without resorting to the use of error-detection codes.
Abstract:
A method to optimize almost blank subframe usage in a wireless network including generating, an interfering base station, in order to minimize interference caused to a serving base station, an almost blank subframe pattern and sending the latter to the serving base station. The serving base station generating a set of preferred almost blank subframes, from said received almost blank subframe pattern, that their knows will be of use for providing a wireless connectivity to a user terminal, and sending the preferred almost blank subframes ordered by a priority of usage to said interfering base station. And the interfering base station, using, in the case of requiring the use of additional subframes for serving its own user terminals, the almost blank subframes indicated as low priority in said received set of preferred almost blank subframes from the serving base station.

Abstract:
The method comprising a first user having a plurality of computing devices connected to a local network performing the following steps: searching, a content collection system, for multimedia content items in said plurality of computing devices; gathering, by said content collection system, said multimedia content items found for a specific domain and generating a list with said gathered multimedia content items; identifying, a content identification system, each one of said multimedia content items included in said list; and creating a profile generator system a user profile of said first user by analyzing all of said identified items in said multimedia content and further using said created first user profile for providing multimedia content recommendation to said first user, and possibly to additional users related to said first user through a recommendation engine. The system of the invention is adapted to implement the method of the invention.
Abstract:
A method and a system for channel state information (CSI) reporting in LTE networks according to the mobility of user equipment. The method includes user equipment (UE) transmitting to an LTE cellular base station (eNodeB), a CSI report containing quality information including CQI, PMI and RI indicators on an uplink radio channel in a periodic manner using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH), the CSI reporting activated based on a low mobility estimation of the UE and including a first CSI report type containing CSI information in DWT form of the channel impulse responses and average CQI indications for the codewords in use, being some of the DWT coefficients admissible to be discarded for increased compression; and a second CSI report type containing differences in coefficients of the DWT for each channel impulse responses, and differences in the average of CQI values. The system is adapted to implement the method.
Abstract:
The method comprises a LTE cellular base station reporting radio resources usage information about its resource assignment in a current LTE frame emitted or to be emitted thereby, regarding slot usage for at least the slots of the downlink subframes of the current LTE frame, and generally also regarding the slots of subsequent downlink subframes and of also regarding uplink subframes.The uses of the method are for interference reduction and for energy optimization.
Abstract:
The method comprises acquiring information from signals exchanged between a user's mobile computing devices and a plurality of Base Transceiver Stations, or BTSs, analyzing said acquired information for determining, over a period of time, the locations of said user's mobile computing device and deduce through a statistical model the points of interest, identifying and labelling at least part of said user's mobile computing device determined locations as points of interest.
Abstract:
The method comprising measuring by an interfered base station (BS2) the uplink interference and when said uplink interference exceeds a given threshold performing a cancellation process by: discovering and identifying a serving base station (BS1) to which an interfering user device (UE1) is wirelessly connected; requesting to the serving (BS1) the RF fingerprints of the one or more interfering user devices served thereby and using the same frequency resource blocks (RB) of said interfered (BS2); receiving the RF fingerprint of said interfering user device (UE1); consulting said received RF fingerprint in a register; selecting the RF fingerprint more similar to the received one and taking the information of level of interference associated thereto; and using said taken level of interference information for performing said cancelling of said uplink interference.
Abstract:
It comprises: defining and managing an indoor area sensitive to the movements of user mobile processing devices, detecting events that occur automatically when a user mobile processing device interacts with said indoor defined area; and using a location server for locating said user mobile processing device based on programmed triggers and/or on triggers associated to the detected events. The method further comprises, when the location server has an unknown address or when a new location server needs to be used, determining the unknown address of the location server or the address of the new location server by collecting and exchanging parameters relating thereto between the user mobile processing device and the location server or the new location server.
