Abstract:
A method for determining a radio resource control (RRC) configuration in a wireless communication system supporting dual connectivity, and an apparatus supporting the same is disclosed. The method for determining, by a base station (BS), a radio resource control (RRC) configuration in a wireless communication system supporting dual connectivity, includes transmitting, by a first BS, a first RRC configuration of a serving cell of the first BS or remained user equipment (UE) capability to a second BS configured in a UE, and receiving, by the first BS, a second RRC configuration of a serving cell of the second BS configured in the UE from the second BS. The first BS and the second BS are involved in dual connectivity for the UE, and the second RRC configuration is determined by the second BS based on the first RRC configuration or the remained UE capability.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting an indication of cell coverage in a wireless communication system is provided. A first eNodeB (eNB) transmits an indication which indicates cell coverage of an active antenna system (AAS) to a second eNB. The indication may be one of a cell split/merge/remove indication.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for allocating physical cell identities (PCIs) in a wireless communication system is provided. An eNodeB (eNB) allocates PCIs for split cells of an active antenna system (AAS), and transmits information on range of the allocated PCIs for split cells of the AAS to user equipments (UEs) or neighbor eNBs.
Abstract:
A method for performing a handover procedure in a wireless communication system is provided. A first eNodeB (eNB) of a 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) system receives information on an access point (AP) of a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, which is located at neighborhood of a second eNB, to which data of the first eNB can be offloaded, from a user equipment (UE) or a second eNB, and decides whether to handover the UE to the second eNB based on the received information on the AP.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing a partial handover procedure in a wireless communication system is provided. An eNodeB (eNB) of a 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) system determines E-UTRAN radio access bearers (E-RABs) to be offloaded to an access point (AP) of a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, and transmits an E-RAB release indication message, which includes a list of the E-RABs to be offloaded to the AP and a corresponding cause which is set to “Offload to WLAN”, to a mobility management entity (MME) of the 3GPP LTE system.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting mobility parameters in a wireless communication system is provided. A first eNodeB (eNB) transmits first mobility parameters for at least one of a cell range expansion (CRE) user equipment (UE) and second mobility parameters for a non-CRE UE to a second eNB. The CRE UE may include a UE which is configured with an almost blank subframe (ABS).
