Disclosed herein are methods, computer program instructions and apparatus for performing random access procedures in a wireless communication system. A method includes receiving at a network access node, in different time and frequency resources that are allocated for preamble transmission, and in different ones of a plurality of component carriers, a plurality of random access requests from individual ones of a plurality of user equipments; and transmitting a corresponding plurality of random access responses in a time and frequency resource of a single component carrier.

Random access channel response handling with aggregated component carriers

Random access channel response handling with aggegrated component carriers

A method, device, and system that use narrowband channels to provide higher re-use without multiplying the operator spectrum requirement. If a communication system supports variable carrier bandwidth channels, the narrow channel capacity can be divided among adjacent cells to provide higher re-use.

Variable bandwidth in a communication system

A method comprising providing a plurality of services to be transmitted over a common area by a plurality of nodes; and providing information relating to a quantity of data of said plurality of services for all of said services to said plurality of nodes.

Method for providing a plurality of services

A method, system, apparatus, and computer program can provide scheduling of direct to direct communication by a high speed packet access base station. The method, for example, can include obtaining a direct user equipment communication toggling message. The method can also include interpreting physical layer signaling on a first frequency of a first radio system based on the toggling message. The method can further include scheduling a direct user equipment pair on a second frequency of a second system based on the interpreting. The toggling message can include a triggering message to initiate direct user equipment communication or an exit message to terminate direct user equipment communication.

Scheduling of device-to-device communication

A communication device comprising a receiver for receiving first information entities associated with a first communication and second information entities associated with a second communication. The communication device is configured to generate information regarding the positions of information entities associated with the first communication relative to information entities associated with the second communication. A transmitter for sending said information to an external entity is also provided. A controller for using the information and method of controlling transmissions of information entities to and/or from the communication are also disclosed.

Communication on a plurality of carriers

A method for handover is disclosed. The method comprises generation of mobility information that associates with a mobile device attached to a first access node. The mobility information is then communicated to a second access node for use in a handover of the mobile device from the first access node to the second access node.

Handovers in a communication system

A method and system handles at least one connection to at least one terminal in an access network. The access network includes a radio interface and at least one router. A link layer address is assigned to the at least one terminal, and a cell-specific radio link identifier is used at the radio interface for identifying a radio link to the router. An identifier for identifying the terminal or terminals preferably includes an RLI field for identifying the radio link, and a LLA Mapping field for identifying the terminal.

Method, system, and devices for joint handling of at least two users over one logical radio connection

A method performs communication resource control in at least one cell of a cellular communication network. The cell includes a base station communicating using at least one frequency and the cell is operated according to a time-based frequency reuse technique. A communication between a terminal and the base station is based on a time frame structure including a plurality of time slots. The method includes the step of obtaining, at the base station of the cell, loading conditions of at least one cell among the subject cell and its neighboring cells. The method also includes the step of adapting, at the base station of the cell, at least one parameter of communication resource control of the base station on the basis of the loading conditions obtained. A base station, a terminal, a system, and a computer program product to implement the method.

Communication resource control enhancing time-based frequency reuse

In a telecommunications system a larger higher layer data unit is segmented into smaller segments on the lower layer. A segmentation length information is used to indicate the lengths of the segments in a lower layer protocol data unit. Specific values of segmentation length information are employed to indicate, when necessary, special information about the upper layer data unit, such as whether the upper layer data unit ends in the current data segment in the lower layer protocol data unit or continues to the next lower layer protocol data unit. This information is needed in the receiver to correctly assemble the segmented data.

Data segmentation method in a telecommunications system

A method for generating acknowledgement messages in a data transmission system having a receiver for receiving datagrams and being capable of determining which of a series of datagrams have been incorrectly received, the method comprising generating a plurality of a data units, each data unit comprising: a status bit indicative of the status of the data unit; and a plurality of spacing bits together forming a binary representation of a number at least partially indicative of the spacing between one incorrectly received datagram and a succeeding incorrectly received datagram. Apparatus for carrying out various aspects of the methods are also provided.

Data acknowledgement

The present invention concerns a method of configuring quality parameters in a packet-based transmission flow for packets within the flow, and still further a method of transmitting packet-based transmission flows comprising packets of configured quality classes within a session capable of handling at least two distinguishable flows, the method comprising the steps of: receiving packets of a first flow as a first flow of the session, analyzing the received packets in terms of the configured quality classes, separating those segments of the packets of a configured quality class, which configured quality class differs from a quality class of said first flow of the session. Also, a corresponding reception method is disclosed, and respective transmitter and receiver devices are disclosed.

Differentiation of quality classes to different PDUs with support for multiple terminals
