Abstract:
A method performed by user equipment (UE) includes receiving a request to access a service unavailable through a first network cell associated with the UE and informing a second network cell that the UE is requesting to obtain the service unavailable through the first network cell. The request may be received from a user of the UE or may be a paging message.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for controlling whether a mobile station is permitted to perform a reselection to a CSG cell, and if reselection is allowed, whether a notification of cell change is required in advance. This control is based on CCN notifications for different radio access technologies.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for transmission of measurement reports are provided. In some cases, once a mobile station transmits a measurement report for a cell, such as an uncontrolled cell, then the mobile station transmits some further minimum number of measurement reports. In some cases, a mobile station can only transmit measurement reports for a cell up to some maximum or for some specified time. The mobile station transmits measurement reports using two formats. In the first, the cell is identified using routing parameters; in the second, the cell is not identified using routing parameters. The network is able to associate messages sent using the two formats.
Abstract:
A method, and a wireless device, are disclosed; the method comprising monitoring a neighbor cell at a time interval; and if a criterion is satisfied, modifying monitoring of the neighbor cell.
Abstract:
A method performed by user equipment (UE) includes receiving a request to access a service unavailable through a first network cell associated with the UE, and receiving a message from an access device associated with the first network cell, wherein the message identifies a plurality of second network cells providing the service.
Abstract:
Example methods and apparatus to signal use-specific capabilities of mobile stations to establish data transfer sessions are disclosed. In accordance with a disclosed example method, a message is generated to initiate a data transfer session between a mobile station and a network. The message adaptable to indicate different radio access capabilities information of the mobile station. A subset of the different radio access capabilities information of the mobile station is indicated in the message. The indicated subset pertaining to a specific type of use by the mobile station for the data transfer session. The message is sent from the mobile station to the network.
Abstract:
Systems and Methods for Independent Setting of Cell Change Network Control Mode and Notification of Cell Change Mode for Uncontrolled Cells are provided. In some cases, separate behavior is specified for mobile stations in respect of uncontrolled cells. In some cases, behavior is signalled by the signalling used for normal cells, but different meaning is attributed to the signalling. In some cases, at least one further criterion is combined with the signalling for controlled cells to determine the behavior for controlled cells. In some cases, additional signalling is employed.
Abstract:
A wireless cellular telecommunications device stores a first parameter obtained from system information of a first cell and measures an attribute of a signal received from a candidate cell, determines if the candidate cell is a closed subscriber group cell, and evaluates the candidate cell for re-selection. If the candidate cell is determined to be a closed subscriber group cell, the evaluation of the candidate cell for re-selection is based on at least the measured attribute irrespective of the first stored parameter, that first stored parameter indicating a minimum value for the measured attribute.
Abstract:
In accordance with the exemplary embodiments of the invention there is described a method and apparatus to group at least one cell of a network according to at least one characteristic of a physical layer cell identification of the at least one cell, and to signal a representation comprising the at least one characteristic of the grouped at least one cell to a mobile station. In addition, according to another exemplary aspect of the invention there is at least a method and apparatus to receive signaling comprising a representation of a grouped at least one cell of a network, where the representation is according to at least one characteristic of a physical layer cell identification of the at least one cell, and to determine, based on the signaling, whether the grouped at least one cell are to be considered for an operation including at least one of reselection and measurement reporting.
Abstract:
A method for communicating with a network is presented. The method includes receiving an assignment of first timeslots for uplink communications, and receiving an instruction to reduce monitoring to a set of timeslots. The set of timeslots has a number of timeslots less than a number of timeslots to be monitored in accordance with the assignment. The method includes receiving a negative acknowledgement of one or more radio blocks previously transmitted to the network, retransmitting at least one of the one or more radio blocks, and, after retransmitting the at least one of the one or more radio blocks and before receiving a second instruction to reduce monitoring, reducing monitoring to the set of timeslots.
