A method for supporting location services in a mobile radio communications system, in which method a mobile station receives from at least one network element involved in location services, for the implementation of a position measurement procedure, at least one information element indicating if the method type required for that position measurement procedure is a 'Conventional GPS' method type where the mobile station behaves as a conventional satellite positioning system receiver.

Method of supporting location services in a mobile radio communications system

A device (D) dedicated to control of bandwidth used by a work station (-) that can be connected to a network allowing the user to access a service that doesn't require feedback, this network being a frequency division duplexing network which accommodates at least one frequency bundle branch block of the first type, dedicated to transmission of data bundles, and a second type district from the first type. This device has i) the capacity to analyze at least signalling information received from the work station on the first type block, and ii) a switchover feature which is activated if the analysis device detects signalling information signalling the availability of a service on a second type frequency block range, to receive second type data stream on the second type frequency block.

Device and control procedure for FDD and non-FDD bandwidth

One of the different objects of the present invention is The method for acquiring system information by a mobile station in a mobile radiocommunication system, including a step of: acquiring part of system information on or after access to the network for establishing or re-establishing a radio connection.

Method for acquiring system information by a mobile station in a mobile radiocommunication system

A device is dedicated to adapting modulation and coding schemes to be applied to data intended to be broadcast by means of a dedicated carrier over a forward channel of a radio communication network to radio terminals (UE) connected to at least that radio communication network. This device (D) comprises processing means (PM) tasked with adapting at least one modulation and coding scheme to be applied to data intended to be broadcast by means of the dedicated carrier, based on actual radio broadcast conditions, over links established between the radio network and radio terminals (UE) which are recipients of the data to be broadcast.

Systems and methods are provided for procedure processing for packet mode location services in a mobile radio communications cellular system, which may include entities of a base station subsystem (BSS) type, a network service entity (NSE), and a serving GPRS support mode (SGSN). In accordance with the systems and methods provided herein, in the event of an inter-NSE cell change, a current location procedure is not aborted if it can be maintained by the BSS.

Procedure processing method for packet mode locating services in a mobile radiocommunication system

A device for controlling the access of user equipments to broadcast MBMS-type services includes i) a detector for determining whether general information, related to a MBMS service and broadcast by the radio access network, contains configuration information for a MICH-type, notification transport channel dedicated to the MBMS service and ii) a controller for either forcing the user equipment to periodically monitor a MCCH-type logical channel which carries control information related to the service, in the event that the configuration information for the MICH channel is not determined, in order to retrieve information necessary for accessing the MBMS service; or at least suggesting that the user equipment monitor the MICH channel in the event that its configuration information is determined, in order to retrieve update information for the MCCH channel making it possible to monitor the MCCH channel, so as to retrieve the information necessary for accessing the MBMS service.

Device and method for controlling user equipment access to services of the MBMS type offered by a mobile network

A processing device (D) acts on behalf of at least one radio terminal (UE) capable both of receiving data broadcast by a radio communication network in point-to-multipoint mode over a physical broadcast channel and according to an adaptable modulation and coding scheme, and of determining measurements representative of the radio conditions present in at least the cell in which it is located. This device (D) comprises processing means (PM) tasked with i) determining whether a measurement taken by at least one radio terminal (UE) corresponds to a status from among a set of predefined statuses, and ii) if so, to generate a message dedicated to the determined status and order the radio terminal (UE) to transmit this status message to the radio network within a portion of the time/frequency/code domain reserved within a signaling frame, for at least the cell in question.
