    摘要: The techniques described herein enable a commercial cellular service provider to use a repurposed portion of spectrum to provide cellular service to a customer base while ensuring that the use of the repurposed portion of spectrum does not interfere with a previous use of the repurposed portion of spectrum by an incumbent entity. The techniques determine, and manage the use of, forbidden cells and clean cells. A “forbidden” cell is a cell in which a previous use of spectrum by an incumbent entity is protected. A “clean” cell is a cell that can be freely used by the commercial cellular service provider without a possibility of interference with a protected use of the spectrum by the incumbent entity.

    摘要: This disclosure relates to cell selection of a telecommunication device based on mobility management algorithms for idle mode cell selection routines and handover routines. The mobility management algorithm can utilize the BTS class of the infrastructure equipment to help determine cell selection. The BTS class of the infrastructure equipment can be used to determine the geographic size of the coverage area that the infrastructure equipment provides. These algorithms can be used to help handle mobility management for telecommunication device.

    摘要: A mobile network is analyzed to determine outage regions for a dual-connectivity functionality that uses multiple wireless technologies provided by non-collocated network sites. In some examples, a network configuration server receives and analyzes the locations of base transceiver stations (BTSs) within the mobile network, along with the coverage ranges and wireless technologies supported by the BTS network sites. Based on the analyses, the network configuration server determines regions within which certain dual-connectivity functionality is and is not supported for user equipment (UE) devices. The network configuration server may calculate the outage region for a BTS network site based on the distances between the BTS network site and other BTS network sites providing different wireless technologies for the dual-connectivity functionality. Various elements of the mobile network, including the BTS network sites and/or user mobile devices, may be configured based on the determined outage regions.

    摘要: Techniques for measuring and reducing signal misalignment in a dual connectivity environment are discussed herein. When using Non-Standalone Architecture (NSA), a device initially communicates with a network using a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) connection. After the LTE connection is established, an LTE base station may instruct the device to measure signal strength of a neighboring New Radio (NR) cell during a specified LTE measurement gap. When the NR cell is implemented by an indoor NR base station, the NR signal may not be sufficiently synchronized with the LTE signal and the device may be unable to measure the NR signal during the measurement gap. In these cases, the device can determine the frame timing difference between the LTE and NR signals, obtain an adjusted measurement gap that reduces any measurement gap misalignment, and attempt to measure the signal strength of the NR cell using the adjusted measurement gap.
