Abstract: An access point is configured based on signals received from one or more access points on a forward link. Such an access point may comprise, for example, a relatively small coverage area access point and/or an access point that is deployed in an ad-hoc manner. In some aspects, an access point may determine its location based on signals received from several neighboring macro access points. In some aspects, the timing of an access point may be synchronized to timing indicated by signals that are received from one or more neighboring access points.

Abstract: STORING LOCATION INFORMATION TO LOCATE A FEMTO CELL AT A USER EQUIPMENT DATABASEA system, method and computer product for augmenting a user s equipment (UE) database with information measured by a femto cell, the method comprising: (a) performing RF measurements by a femto cell to determine a location of the femto cell; (b) connecting the UE to the femto cell; (c) downloading the RF measurements taken by the femto cell into the UE database. In a different embodiment, radio frequency, RF,measurements of a plurality of UEs to determine the location of a femto celle are sent to a server which averages the location of the femto cell. The average location is dowload to the UE database. In another embodiments, RF measurements corresponding to neighboring macro cells at the time when the UE receives a strongest signal from a femto cell are stored, RF measurements of a macro-cell phase offset are performed and information about changes in macro cell environment is dowload into the UE database.Figure 2

Abstract: A system, a method and computer product for synchronizing of a femto cell with a macro cell, the method comprising: placing a forward link receiver into the femto cell; receiving by a micro cellular network the femto cell transmission timing; and synchronizing the femto cell transmission timing with the macro cellular network transmission timing in reliance on the forward link receiver signal. Further, a system, a method and computer product for allocating pilot phases to femto cells, the method comprising: creating at least as many new potential pilot phases for femto cells as there are for macro cells; and allowing a mobile device on a macro cell to search and find a femto cell pilot without explicitly listing femto pilot phases in the neighbor list.

Abstract: A method for managing access to a macro mobile operator core network (250) by a guest terminal device (225) through a femto cell (210), and more particularly through a femto cell (210) connected to the Internet (240). When a guest terminal seeks guest access to network services at a site for example while a guest at a person s home, or a customer in a shop, or a traveler in a transportation station, access may be granted by information exchange between the proprietor of the site and the macro mobile operator core network (250). Access may be granted via the proprietor via a terminal device (220) connected wirelessly to the core network, or by any device connected to the Internet. Once access is granted, the guest terminal device (225) receives sufficient information to initiate communication with femto cells (210) in the proximity of the site, and thereby begin using Internet-based communication.

Abstract: Una terminal de acceso define una ventana de búsqueda basándose en una distancia entre puntos de acceso. Aquí, el primero de los puntos de acceso puede comprender un macro punto de acceso desde el cual la terminal de acceso adquiere tiempo. La ventana de búsqueda puede utilizarse para monitorear las señales piloto del segundo de los puntos de acceso. Por ejemplo, el segundo punto de acceso puede comprender un femto nodo que proporciona cobertura de área relativamente pequeña. En algunos aspectos, la definición de la ventana de búsqueda puede implicar ajustar (por ejemplo adelantar) un centro de una ventana de búsqueda basándose en la distancia entre los puntos de acceso. Además, la terminal de acceso puede emplear una ventana de búsqueda más pequeña cuando busca señales piloto desde un femto nodo en comparación cuando busca señales piloto desde un macro punto de acceso.

Abstract: Ambiguity (e.g., confusion) associated with access point identifiers may be resolved by querying candidate target access points and/or by using historical records indicative of one or more access points that the access point has previously accessed. For example, messages may be sent to access points that are assigned the same identifier to cause the access points to monitor for a signal from an access terminal that received the identifier from a target access point. The target access point may then be identified based on any responses that indicate that a signal was received from the access terminal. In some aspects the access points subject to being queried may be selected using a tiered priority. In addition, it may be determined based on prior handoffs of a given access terminal that when that access terminal reports a given identifier, the access terminal usually ends up being handed-off to a particular access point. Accordingly, a mapping may be maintained for that access terminal that maps the identifier to that access point so that the mapping may be used to resolve any future confusion associated with the use of that identifier by that access terminal.
