  • Patent number: 10356694
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for generating and transmitting system information in a mobile radio cell. In said method, system information is grouped into several information frames, information required for a mobile user device in order to verify if said mobile user device has access to the mobile radio cell being grouped into a single information frame, and the information frames are fed to the data securing layer by the network layer and are transmitted by means of the physical layer.

  • Patent number: 10021716
    Abstract: A method (200) for solving conflicts in scheduling cell broadcast (CB) message reception and idle mode tasks of a mobile device includes: receiving (201) first information indicating a scheduling of a cell broadcast (CB) message (611, 612, 613, 614) reception during a discontinuous reception (DRX) phase of the mobile device; receiving (202) second information indicating a scheduling of an idle mode task (609) during the DRX phase; detecting (203) if a conflict exists in the scheduling of the CB message (611, 612, 613, 614) reception and the scheduling of the idle mode task (609) based on the first and second information (201, 201); and if a conflict (629) is detected (204): rearranging (205) the scheduling of the idle mode task (609) and the scheduling of the CB message (611, 612, 613, 614) reception to solve the conflict.

  • Patent number: 9942833
    Abstract: A mobile terminal device includes a radio processing circuit and a baseband processing circuit adapted to interact with the radio processing circuit. The mobile terminal device is configured to detect network access points on one or more carrier channels using a first radio scan and a second radio scan by obtaining one or more scan results of the first radio scan, each of the scan results of the first radio scan corresponding to a carrier channel targeted for radio scan by the first radio scan, identifying one or more selected scan results from the one or more scan results of the first radio scan, each of the one or more selected scan results of the first radio scan corresponding to a carrier channel targeted for radio scan by the second radio scan, and selecting the one or more selected scan results of the first radio scan as scan results of the second radio scan, and performing mobile communications using the scan results of the first radio scan or the scan results of the second radio scan.

  • Patent number: 9456373
    Abstract: A cell search method is described comprising searching for a frequency at which a communication network operates a radio cell within a predetermined set of candidate frequencies; determining a frequency at which a communication network operates a radio cell within the set of candidate frequencies; excluding a sub-set with a predetermined size of frequencies around the determined frequency from the set of candidate frequencies to generate an updated set of candidate frequencies; and continuing to search for a further frequency at which a communication network operates a radio cell within the updated set of candidate frequencies.

  • Publication number: 20110195712
    Abstract: Disclosed is a frequency scanning method that employs a number of frequency sets that may be scanned consecutively, according to a fixed delay or interval, to discover a frequency that may be used to obtain wireless communication service. In one implementation, any number of these sets may be scanned before a wireless device performs a scan of a full set of frequencies that may be available to the wireless device.
