Provided are methods, corresponding apparatuses, and computer program products for triggering WLAN discovery and handover procedures in coexisted LTE and WLAN networks. A method comprises receiving, from a first base station, information that has been exchanged 5 between the first evolve Node B and a second base station and that relates to at least one wireless local area network access point connected or co-located with the first base station or the second base station; and performing a wireless local area network discovery procedure with the at least one wireless local area network access point based upon the received information. With the claimed inventions, signaling cost and power consumption by those unnecessary WLAN 10 discovery procedures could be avoided, acquiring a longer battery life for a user equipment.

Methods, corresponding apparatuses, and computer program products for mobility control in a heterogeneous network are provided. The method comprises sending, by a source local area base station (e.g., a source access point), a handover request for handing over a user equipment to a target local area base station (e.g., a target access point), wherein the source and target local area base stations are connected with a same wide area base station and the user equipment is connected with the same wide area base station via the source local area base station. The method also comprises handing over, based on a handover request acknowledgement from the target local area base station, the user equipment to the target local area base station for continuing with at least one of an ongoing local area service and an ongoing wide area service without changing security keys of the same wide area base station. With the claimed inventions, the handover latency and service continuity during the inter-AP mobility would be efficiently improved in a secure manner.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for handover in a heterogeneous network. According to the method, a candidate radio connectivity mode for use after handover from a source BS to a first target BS and/or a second target BS is determined; a first handover related message which comprises the candidate radio connectivity mode is sent to the source BS; and in response to receiving a second handover related message, the first target BS and/or the second target BS may be accessed, wherein the source BS is not associated with the first target BS, and wherein the first target BS is a LPN and is associated with the second target BS.

In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus, comprising at least one processing core configured to determine an opportunity for device-to-device, D2D, communication, and at least one transmitter configured to cause transmitting of a D2D communication request, wherein the D2D communication request at least one of comprises a radio resource control signaling message and comprises an indication of a type of D2D communication that is requested. The indicated type may comprise D2D communication with no fallback to cellular connectivity, wherein such a D2D communication can be established without involving a core network, CN.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method of managing an X2 interface, a handover method, an interference coordination method and an apparatus for LTE and LTE-Advanced system. X2 interface management includes: finding by a first eNB, a new neighboring cell, i.e., a second cell corresponding to a second HeNB; determining by the first eNB, an access mode of the second cell; and establishing a first X2 interface between the first eNB and the second HeNB when the access mode of the second cell is an open mode or a hybrid mode. The X2 interface may be managed dynamically and the mode for establishing the X2 interface, such as direct X2 interface or gateway-proxied X2interface, may be selected. The expansible problem and system overhead due to the X2interface in the LTE and LTE-Advanced system may be reduced effectively to better support handover and interference coordination.
