The requested mobility information is received (240) from the remote terminal, and the requested connection is established (250) with the remote terminal.
Abstract:
There is provided a method performed by a wireless device for managing a sleep state when a Discontinuous Reception, DRX, cycle of the wireless device is configured to be longer than a predefined value. The method comprises the following steps. Determining a future point in time indicating an upcoming, future reception occasion at which the wireless device will receive a message. Entering the sleep state. Keeping track of time during the sleep state according to a first time format by using a clock. Waking-up from the sleep state before, as monitored by the clock, the future point in time. Reading broadcasted time information according to a second time format. Obtaining System Frame Number, SFN, synchronization based on the broadcasted time information according to the second time format and received System Frame Number, SFN, information. Receiving, with obtained SFN synchronization, the message at the future point in time.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and arrangements for re-establishing packet data transfer between a radio base station and a wireless device following radio link failure, the radio base station having pre-configured wireless device information. The RBS receives (S71) a request for re-establishment of the radio link from the wireless device. One or more DRBs are selected (S72) for re-establishment based on the pre-configured wireless device information. The RBS transmits (S73) a radio link re-establishment response to the wireless device comprising information about the selected one or more DRBs. The selected one or more DRBs are re-established upon receipt (S74) of a re-establishment confirmation from the wireless device, where upon packet data transfer is resumed.
Abstract:
A method in a primary network node for handling a handover of a wireless device from a primary cell serviced by the primary network node to a neighbor cell serviced by a neighbor network node. The method comprises sending a configuration message to the wireless device, comprising instructions to evaluate in parallel a first handover event and a second handover event. The first event is based on signal quality measurements from both cells. The second event is based on signal strength measurements from both cells. To evaluate comprises determining if an entering condition for each of the events is satisfied. The method further comprises sending a handover command to the wireless device when one of: the entering condition for the first handover event is satisfied over a first time period, and the entering condition for the second handover event is satisfied over a second time period.
Abstract:
The present disclosure concerns movements, such as handovers, of user equipments (UEs) 120a-e from one radio cell 130a to another radio cell 130b. Disclosed herein are methods as well radio network nodes 110a, 110b. A radio network node 110a, 110b may, for example, select the most suitable UE(s) 20a-e to move from a source radio cell 130a to a target radio cell 130b in case the traffic load in the source radio cell 130a is below or equal to the traffic load of the target radio cell 130b. Hereby it is made possible to improve the resource utilization.
Abstract:
A relay node (110) for a radio access network (100), arranged to be a relay node between one or more User Equipments (105) in a cell (125) of the radio access network and a base station (115) serving the cell. The relay node (110) is arranged to identify itself as a relay node in the cell (125) in the radio access network (100), and is also arranged to receive a non-support indication indicating that the base station serving the cell (125) is unable to support a relay node. The relay node (110) is arranged to, upon receiving said non-support indication, attempt to establish itself as a relay node in another cell.
Abstract:
A method in a first base station (105) for handling a data transferral in a cellular network (100) is provided. The first base station (105) serves a user equipment (125) via a first cell (115). When the first base station (105) obtains an indication that a second cell (120) provides a coverage for the user equipment (125), the first base station (105) sends a message to a second base station (110) serving the second cell (120). The message commands the second base station (110) to prepare for receiving the uplink data from the user equipment (125) via the second cell (120). The first base station (105) also sends a request to the user equipment (125). The request commands the user equipment (125) to prepare for sending the uplink data both via the first cell (115) and via the second cell (120) in respective separate intra frequency transmissions.
Abstract:
Systems and methods relating to reconfiguration of a Carrier Aggregation (CA) enabled wireless device using a measurement gap are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a CA enabled wireless device in a cellular communications network comprises reconfiguring the wireless device during a measurement gap such that the wireless device is enabled to receive a first set of one or more carriers after the measurement gap that are different than a second set of one or more carriers that the wireless device was receiving before the measurement gap. In some embodiments, the reconfiguration of the wireless device during the measurement gap enables reconfiguration of the wireless device for measurements on a Secondary Component Carrier (SCC) of a configured and deactivated Secondary Cell (SCell) of the wireless device without serving cell interruption.
