Patent number: 11233616Abstract: A method performed by a network node for managing transmission of one or more CRS subframes. The network node identifies if a cell is actively serving a set of UEs. When the cell is actively serving a set of UEs, which set of UEs is configured for DRX the network node sends CRS over the first bandwidth in one or more CRS subframes which are transmitted in the cell during an onDuration interval of the DRX pattern and/or in one or more CRS subframes where system information is sent and/or in one or more CRS subframes where downlink, DL, data is sent. The network node sends CRS over a second bandwidth, in CRS subframes which are not transmitted in the cell during the onDuration interval of the DRX and/or in the one or more CRS subframes except CRS subframes where system information is sent and/or in the one or more CRS subframes except CRS subframes where DL data is sent, which second bandwidth is reduced in relation to the first bandwidth.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2019Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: David Better, Tomas Lagerqvist, Peter Nordlund, Anthony Paravati

Patent number: 10694474Abstract: Method performed by a network node for reducing interference in neighboring cells. The network node operates in a communication network, which is adapted to wirelessly serve a UE via a serving Radio Access, RA, node. The network node obtains a determination of at least one of Reference Signal Received Power, RSRP, and Reference Signal Received Quality, RSRQ, from the serving RA node as received by the UE and a determination of at least one of RSRP and RSRQ from a neighboring RA node as received by the UE, when the UE is connected to the serving RA node. The network node further decides to reduce a transmit power of the serving RA node serving the connected UE, when the determined RSRP and/or RSRQ of the serving RA node is higher than the RSRP and/or RSRQ of the neighboring RA node, in order to reduce the interference in neighboring cells caused by the serving RA node.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2015Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (Publ)Inventors: Tomas Lagerqvist, David Better, Peter Nordlund, Anthony Paravati

Publication number: 20120140669Abstract: A method in a communication network node for testing a capacity of a communication network comprising the communication network node is provided. The communication network node communicates with a plurality of user equipments on downlink and uplink channels over an air interface. The communication network node generates (201) artificial load in a traffic model converter unit comprised in the communication network node, using a traffic model. After reserving (202) a number of physical resource blocks to said generated artificial load, said traffic model converter unit in the communication network node sends (203) information about physical resources that are available for real user equipment load to a scheduler within the communication network node. The scheduler schedules (204) physical resource blocks for said real user equipment load.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2010Publication date: June 7, 2012Inventors: Xiaoling Wang, Franz Heiser, Peter Nordlund

Patent number: 6112093Abstract: The establishment of digital connections is avoided if the power level compensated uplink signal strength transmitted by a dual-mode mobile station is below a threshold value. In such cases, a dual-mode mobile station is instead preferably connected to an analog traffic channel. The threshold value can be selected to provide a statistically acceptable probability that the digital connection will be successful. Different threshold values can be used for different connection situations to take into account the different techniques used to determine a best serving base station.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 1996Date of Patent: August 29, 2000Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM EricssonInventor: Peter Nordlund

Patent number: 5995836Abstract: A method and system for performing handoffs in radiocommunication systems using a time variable hysteresis value are described. By varying the hysteresis value in accordance with the amount of time that the mobile station has been using a current channel, problems associated with the measurement of signal strengths attributable to filter initialization can be avoided.Type: GrantFiled: December 24, 1997Date of Patent: November 30, 1999Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM EricssonInventors: Per Wijk, Peter Nordlund, Thomas Lundborg
