A lens antenna, a radio unit and a base station are disclosed. According to an embodiment, the lens antenna comprises an antenna array and a lens unit having a first focal point at a first side of the lens unit and a second focal point at a second side of the lens unit opposite to the first side. The lens unit is able to cause at least part of beams emitted from the antenna array at the first side the lens unit to be converged at the second side of the lens unit.

Lens antenna, radio unit and base station

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide method and apparatus for positioning. The method may comprise receiving a first radio signal of a terminal device located in the area from a line of sight (LOS) path between the antenna array and the terminal device; receiving a second radio signal of the terminal device located in the area from at least one path reflected by the reflector; determining respective angles of arrival of the LOS path and the at least one path reflected by the reflector; and determining a location of the terminal device by using triangulation based on the respective angles of arrival.

Method and apparatus for positioning

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an antenna device and a base station comprising the same. The antenna device may comprise an antenna array with a radiation pattern including a main lobe and a back lobe; and a first reflector able to be configured to reflect a first part of energy of the back lobe to at least one direction different from a direction of the main lobe.

Antenna device and base station comprising the same

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method in a network element for access controlling. The method comprises receiving an access request message from a terminal device and checking a data structure for maintaining state information of terminal devices from which the network element has received access request messages, in response to the reception of the access request message. The method also comprises determining whether the requesting terminal device is abnormal based on said checking of the data structure and rejecting the access request of the requesting terminal device in response to determining that the requesting terminal device is abnormal.
