Abstract:
The disclosure relates to methods, a wireless device, a radio access node and computer programs for improving wireless device mobility between a first radio access network arranged to operate according to a first radio access technology and a second radio access network arranged to operate according to a second radio access technology. In particular, the disclosure relates to handover preparation procedure to improve handover of a wireless device (20) connected to a first radio access network (11) arranged to operate according to a first radio access technology to a second radio access network (12) arranged to operate according to a second radio access technology. The handover preparation procedure includes the sending of a handover prepare message (S47) from an access node (30) of a first radio access network to a connected wireless device (20). The wireless device prepares for handover by means of preparation signaling (S48) to access points of one or more second radio access networks indicated in the handover prepare message. The wireless device (20) informs the access node (30) upon concluding the handover preparation. Actual handover is ordered by means of a handover message (S52).
Abstract:
There is provided a method for controlling different parts of a terminal that are able to communicate over at least a first radio access technology protocol and a second radio access technology protocol, where said first and second radio access technology protocols are different and wherein said method includes the steps of detecting (1301) in logical parts that operate a first radio access technology protocol that at least parts of a second radio access technology protocol should be activated or deactivated; transmitting (1303) an indication from logical parts that operates a first radio access technology protocol to logical parts that operates a second radio access technology protocol where said indication is an input to said logical parts that operate the second radio access technology protocol to activate or deactivate parts of second radio access technology protocol.
Abstract:
It is presented a method, performed in an access point, the access point providing wireless network access to one or more wireless terminals. The method comprises: obtaining a first activity parameter, the first activity parameter indicating a number of wireless terminals which are connected to the access point and which are actively communicating with the access point; and transmitting the first activity parameter to a wireless terminal. A corresponding Wi-Fi access point, computer program, computer program product, and wireless terminal are also presented.
Abstract:
There is provided a method in a node in a first access network, the method comprising sending (710) a first set of thresholds and/or conditions to a terminal, the first set of thresholds and/or conditions defining situations in which (a) the terminal should send a measurement report to the first access network with respect to a second access network, or (b) the terminal should connect to the second access network and/or steer at least some traffic to the second access network; and sending (720) a second set of thresholds and/or conditions to the terminal, the second set of thresholds and/or conditions defining situations in which, (c) the terminal should send a measurement report to the first access network regarding at least the second access network or (d) the terminal should disconnect from the second access network and/or connect to the first access network and/or steer at least some traffic to the first access network.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a network-instructed handover of a wireless device from a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) to a Radio Access Network (RAN) of another Radio Access Technology (RAT), e.g., a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) or 3rd Generation Partnership Project 2 (3GPP2) RAT. In one embodiment, a WLAN access node determines that a handover of a wireless device from the WLAN to another RAN of a different RAT is to be performed and transmits a handover instruction to the wireless device that instructs the wireless device to perform a handover from the WLAN to a RAN of a different RAT. In this manner, the WLAN access node is able to steer the wireless device from the WLAN to a RAN of a different RAT.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to user equipment (20) mobility between a first radio access network (11) arranged to operate according to a first radio access technology and a second radio access network (12) arranged to operate according to a second radio access technology. A user equipment (20) connected to the first radio access network (11) retrieves information associated with an anonymized temporary identifier assigned to the user equipment (20) by a radio access node (30) in the first radio access network (11), stores the information in the user equipment (20) and presents the temporary identifier to a radio access point (40) of the second radio access network, when seeking to connect.
Abstract:
Se proporciona un método realizado por un nodo (110) transmisor para reducir la interferencia en una red (100) de comunicaciones inalámbricas. El nodo (110) transmisor recibe información que indica que la inferencia causada por un nodo (111) interferente a una señal de transmisión del nodo (110) transmisor cumple una condición de temporización relativa a la recepción de la señal de transmisión en un nodo (110) receptor en la red (100) de comunicaciones inalámbricas. Entonces, el nodo (110) transmisor ajusta uno o más parámetros de transmisión en el nodo (110) transmisor basándose en la información recibida. También se proporciona un nodo (110) transmisor. Además, también se proporcionan un nodo (111) interferente y un método para reducir la interferencia en una red (100) de comunicaciones inalámbricas, así como un nodo (110) receptor y un método para reducir la interferencia en una red (100) de comunicaciones inalámbricas.
