Abstract: The present invention provides apparatuses, methods, computer programs, computer program products and computer-readable media regarding dormant cell RRM (Radio Resource Management) measurement reporting. Certain aspects of the present invention include configuring, at a base station, a measurement configuration message for causing user equipment served by the base station to perform and report measurements on cells, the measurement configuration message comprising information indicating criteria impacting a measurement reporting procedure with respect to the cells, the said criteria being related to at least one of the state of a cell, a type of a cell, and a type of a signal used for the measurements of the cells, and transmitting said configured measurement configuration message to the user equipment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for user equipment (UE) capability signaling for dual connectivity (DC) are provided. One method may include transmitting to at least one UE, by a network node, a message comprising a flag indicating that the apparatus supports dual connectivity and/or wants to receive UE capability indications of DC support. The method further includes, based on the presence of the flag, receiving, from the at least one UE, the dual connectivity capabilities of the at least one UE.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided. The method includes providing a primary secondary cell by a second node for a user equipment operating in dual connectivity with a first node and the second node; and receiving a request from the user equipment requesting that the primary secondary cell provide the functionality of a primary cell for the user equipment when a radio link between the user equipment and a primary cell provided by the first node is lost.

Abstract: A method and apparatus may be configured to receive at least one set of barring parameters from a network entity. Each set corresponds to a barring check and has a unique implicit or explicit priority. Each set of received barring parameters also corresponds to at least one application that is allowed to bypass the barring check associated with the corresponding and lower priority sets of barring parameters. An application belonging to one of the application groups corresponding to a set of barring parameters needs to pass all the barring checks according to the higher priority barring parameters to access the network. The method can also include determining whether an application bypasses the barring check associated with the corresponding and lower priority sets of barring parameters.

Abstract: Determining measurement gap patterns A terminal device acquires (200), from a network node, a message indicating a discovery reference signal DRS measurement timing configuration for the terminal device for measuring discovery reference signals, and at least one measurement gap pattern MGP. The terminal device determines (206) an effective measurement gap pattern EMGP based on the at least one measurement gap pattern MGP and the DRS measurement timing configuration. (FIG. 2)

Abstract: A method of avoiding mass offloading of user devices, UE's (14), connected to a cellular network (15, 16) such as 3GPP LTE to a second wireless network such as a WLAN (6,8), the method comprising: an ANDSF server (12) broadcasting (in a SIB message, for example) a set of parameters representing offload thresholds to be applied by UE's in idle mode, and also additional information such as a bitmap indicating which of those parameters are also applicable to UE's in connected mode; and a user device, UE (14), receiving the set of parameters and the additional information, and deciding whether to migrate or not to the second network in dependence of whether it is in idle or connected mode, of the parameters and of the additional information.

Abstract: A technique including detecting respective pairs of primary and auxiliary priority indicator values for a plurality of radio resources of a radio access network in one or more transmissions by said radio access network; and selecting a cell to adopt as a serving cell based at least partly on both said primary indicator values and said auxiliary indicator values; wherein the primary priority indicator values for said plurality of radio resources provide an indication of the priority order for said plurality of radio resources to a first degree of resolution; and the combinations of primary and auxiliary priority indicator values for said plurality of radio resources provide an indication of the priority order for said plurality of radio resources to a second degree of resolution higher than said first degree of resolution.
