A method and an apparatus are provided for monitoring or setting a quality of service for a data transmission via a data connection formed between at least one application and a transmission/reception device connected to the mobile communication device by way of at least one radio channel. The quality of service is established via setting a connection capacity and/or a data transmission mode such that an appropriate user satisfaction value corresponds at least to a minimum threshold. The quality of service can also be set in accordance with the utilization level of the corresponding radio network.

Method and apparatuses for monitoring or setting quality of service for a data transmission via a data connection in a radio network

Transmission channels are selected in a multiantenna network radio connection in which data are transmitted using radio signals between a radio base station and a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal has at least one decoder, by means of which radio signals received by at least one of the terminal antennas can be decoded in order to obtain the data. By means of the transmission channel selection, it is decided which transmission path and/or which communication technology is to be used for the transmission of the data between the radio base station and the mobile terminal.

Method and device for selecting transmission channels in a network radio connection

In a method for determining the performance of at least one antenna in a system including a plurality of antennas, the method subdivides a reception area and/or a transmission area of at least one antenna into a plurality of sectors, determines at least one value of a performance parameter for at least one of the plurality of sectors indicating an antenna performance, and determines at least one statistical value from the values of the performance parameter.

Assessment and/or design of multiple-antenna systems

A method and a device are disclosed for controlling at least one data connection and/or one data transmission through the at least one data connection for a mobile radio device. Control information that was previously collected by one or more agents coupled to the mobile radio device is taken into account in the control of the data connection and/or the data transmission. The control information contains route- and/or user-specific information. The collecting of data is carried out by an agent, which is preferably designed to be self-learning.
