Abstract:
A mobile station, a core network node, a base station subsystem, and various methods are described herein for implementing longer paging cycles (longer Discontinuous Reception (DRX) mode) in a cellular network which has a benefit of reducing the energy consumption of the mobile station's battery.
Abstract:
A high-sensitivity receiver may be made by using multiple demodulators to demodulate a given signal. For example, the receiver may use a first demodulator to demodulate an input signal into a first sequence of soft bits and a second demodulator to demodulate the same input signal into a second sequence of soft bits. The two sequences of soft bits may then be compared and combined to create a sequence of hard bits. For example, in some embodiments, a soft bit combiner may combine the two sequences of soft bits into a third sequence of soft bits, which may then be input into a decoder to produce the final decoded hard bits. The secondary demodulator may be less complex, less expensive, demand less power, and/or require fewer computational resources when operating, than the first demodulator.
Abstract:
A method in a network node for assigning resource blocks to a Mobile Station, MS, served by the network node. The MS is capable of downlink multicarrier operation. The network node receives (501) from the MS an indication of a maximum number of consecutive downlink timeslots that the MS is capable of receiving on a given carrier during a TTI. The network node receives (502), from the MS, an indication of a maximum number of resource blocks that the MS is capable of processing during a TTI. The network node receives (503), from the MS, an indication of a maximum number of carriers supported by the MS. The network node assigns (504) resource blocks to the MS, based on the received indication of a maximum number of consecutive downlink TS, the received indication of a maximum number of resource blocks and the received indication of a maximum number of carriers .

Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a method in a mobile communication network for configuring the network for downlink multicarrier data transmission from a network 5 node to a mobile terminal. The method includes the step (210) of receiving a mobile terminal capability signalling in a network node. In a subsequent step (220) at least two carriers are assigned to the mobile terminal in a downlink multicarrier assignment based on information received in the mobile terminal capability signalling. The method also includes a further step of allocating (230), in each 10 radio block period, one or more of the assigned carriers for communication with the mobile terminal. The disclosure also relates to a mobile terminal configured to receive downlink multicarrier data transmission, and a network node configured for downlink multicarrier data transmission. 15 (Figure 2) Receive mobile terminal carrier capability signalling 210 Assign at least two carriers in one or more 220 downlink multicarrier assignment Allocate, in each radio block period, one ormore 230 of the assigned carriers for communication with the mobile terminal Figure 2 Receive mobile terminal carrier capability signalling 210 Retrieve information on supported maximum carrier separation Retrieve information on maximum number 212 of carriers Retrieve multislot capability reduction 213 information Figure 2a
Abstract:
A wireless access node (102?, 102?) and method are described herein for improving a bandwidth utilization efficiency of a common downlink (DL) channel when transmitting device-related information (205, 209) included in one or more messages to a wireless device (104?) or a group of wireless devices (104?, 104?), wherein the one or more messages have one or more transport block formats that meet a coverage class need of the wireless device (104?) or the group of wireless devices (104?, 104?). In addition, a wireless device and method are described herein for improving a bandwidth utilization efficiency of the common DL channel by receiving one or more messages including device-related information (205, 209) on the common DL channel from the wireless access node (102?, 102?), wherein the one or more messages have one or more transport block formats that meet a coverage class need of the wireless device (104?).
