Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for tuning a plurality of beams. A method performed at a network node may comprise: determining (S) a respective coverage requirement for a plurality of beams; determining (S) a respective coverage area for the plurality of beams, based on the determined coverage requirement; determining (S) a power requirement for the plurality of beams, based at least on the determined coverage area; and tuning (S) at least one of the plurality of the beams, based at least on the determined power requirement. The energy efficiency and the network capacity may be improved, while the shape of each beam could be adaptively refactored.

The present disclosure provides a method of requesting for a measurement report, comprising steps of: setting, in a request message, a first field for indicating an action on measurement to be stop and a second field including cell information for which a stop action on measurement is needed, so as to indicate a reporting eNB to stop measurement reports according to the second field; and transmitting to the reporting eNB the request message for the measurement report. The present disclosure also provides a requesting eNB using the above method, a method of stopping a measurement report by a reporting eNB and a reporting eNB using the above method, as well as a computer readable recording medium comprising computer instructions for executing the above methods.

A method used in a BS for scheduling a UE, and an associated BS is disclosed. The method includes: allocating one or more DL Resource Blocks (RBs) for transmitting DownLink (DL) data to the UE (S); determining an UpLink (UL) control channel position for the UE transmitting a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) feedback of the DL data, based on the allocated one or more DL RBs (S); and transmitting the DL data to the UE by using the allocated one or more DL RBs (S). Said method also related to a method used in a UE for transmitting a HARQ feedback, and an associated UE.

One embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a method for uplink SPS release. The method for operating a network node device comprises: determining whether or not there is a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission for a communication device in an uplink sub-frame where the communication device needs to perform an uplink SPS release; sending to the communication device, in response to determining that there is a dynamically scheduled uplink transmission for the communication device in the uplink sub-frame where the communication device needs to perform an uplink SPS release, a dynamic scheduling DCI message for the dynamically scheduled uplink transmission. At least one field of the dynamic scheduling DCI message is configured in a manner that the dynamic scheduling DCI implicitly indicates the uplink SPS release. The method further comprises sending to the communication device, in response to determining that there is no dynamically scheduled uplink transmission for the communication device in the uplink sub-frame where the communication device needs to perform an uplink SPS release, an uplink SPS release DCI message to explicitly indicate the uplink SPS release. According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there are provided corresponding methods and devices.

Methods in a Radio Base Station (RBS) and in a terminal device for facilitating measurement at the terminal device are described. The method in the RBS comprises classifying frequency objects to be measured for a measurement task into a number of frequency object groups assigned with respective frequency measurement weights for determining measurement opportunities for the frequency objects; sending to the terminal device a first indication indicating the classification of the frequency objects into the frequency object groups. The method in the terminal device comprises receiving, from a RBS, a first indication indicating a classification of frequency objects to be measured for a measurement task into a number of frequency object groups assigned with respective frequency measurement weights; determining measurement opportunities for the frequency objects of the measurement task based on the frequency measurement weights.
