Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods and arrangements for facilitating an efficient connection setup. The present invention specifies rules for defining the signaling of connection setup messages from user equipments such as to apply one single transmission if an assigned uplink transmission grant for transmitting the connection setup messages is sufficiently large while applying separate transmissions if the size indicated in said uplink transmission grant is not sufficient. Thus, a sufficiently large grant allows a parallel execution of the connection setup messages.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods and arrangements for handling UE capability information a mobile telecommunications network wherein an eNodeB 100 receives 60 information regarding the UE capability information from the UE 120 and stores 70 the information. The eNodeB 100 sends 80 the UE capability information to the EPC, i.e. the MME 130. The MME 130 receives and stores 90 the UE capability information. When the UE 120 transits from idle to active state, does an initial attach or when a part of the UE capabilities have changed, it sends 10 a message Ma to the eNodeB 100 regarding the update. The eNodeB 100 receives the message and sends 20 it to the MME 130. The MME 130 sends 30 a response associated with the previously stored UE capability information to the eNodeB 100. The eNodeB 100 decides 40 if the UE capabilities stored in the MME 130 is up-to-date based on the message sent from the UE 120 and the received response from the MME 130. If the UE 120 holds updated UE capabilities the eNodeB 100 could request 50 updated UE capability information from the UE 120.
Abstract:
A method for a wireless communications network for data packet including a user equipment (UE) and a transceiver node (eNodeB). The user equipment (UE) and the node (eNodeB) intercommunicate over an air interface communication link. The user equipment (UE) transmits a first message (MSG3) in a first scheduled transmission in a random access procedure during setup of the communication link. The first message is transmitted in a first sub frame (TTI=3) and in a second sub frame (TTI=4; TTI=5) within a first roundtrip time (RTT) in a first HARQ- process triggered by the transmission of the first message in the first sub frame (TTI=3).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for communicating a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) between a transmitter unit and a receiver unit in a wireless communication network. Said PDU comprising protocol headers associated with at least a first and a second protocol layers involved in the communication and a payload to be communicated. The method comprises the step of interacting between the at least first and second protocol layers, such that the sum of the bits of the protocol headers is n-bit aligned such as octet aligned independently of non-alignment of at least one of the protocol headers comprised in the PDU.
Abstract:
The embodiments of the present invention relate to apparatuses in the form of a first network unit and a device, and also relates to a method for enabling protection of a bootstrap message in a device management network system. The method comprises: receiving at the first network unit, a request to bootstrap the device; transmit a request for a bootstrap key, to a second network unit; receiving a message comprising the bootstrap key and further comprises trigger information and transmitting the trigger information to the device to trigger generation of the bootstrap key internally in the device. Thereafter a protected bootstrap message can be transmitted to the device from the first network unit, and when the device verifies and/or decrypts the bootstrap message, device management (DM) sessions can start between the device and the first network unit.
