  • Patent number: 10834694
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments include methods for adjusting transmission timing of a wireless communication device (UE) operating in a network including first and second base stations (BS). The methods include determining a first allowable timing adjustment range corresponding to an uplink (UL) connection between the UE and the first BS, and determining a second allowable timing adjustment range corresponding to a supplementary uplink (SUL) connection between the UE and the second BS. The SUL connection is not associated with a DL connection between the UE and the second BS. The methods include determining if a single timing advance (TA) value can be used to adjust the UE's transmission timing to satisfy both the first and second ranges, and performing a corrective action if it is determined that a single TA value cannot be used. Embodiments also include first and second BS, and UEs, configured to perform the exemplary methods.

  • Patent number: 10798657
    Abstract: At least one antenna node is controlled to provide power correction instructions to a wireless communication device at an appropriate time when switching between uplink reception radio lobes, irrespective of which direction the reception radio lobes are directed in relation to the direction of movement of the wireless communication device. Loss of data and receive blocking problems can thereby be at least mitigated.

  • Publication number: 20200304362
    Abstract: In an aspect, a wireless device with a plurality of transmitter chains that can be selectively used to transmit a beam-formed signal determines a targeted receive power for the beam-formed signal, with respect to a target receiving device. The wireless device selects a number of the plurality of transmitter chains for forming the beam-formed signal, based on the targeted receive power and based on an estimated power consumption for each of the plurality of transmitter chains. The selection is performed so as to minimize a total power consumption, given the estimated power consumptions. The wireless device transmits a beam-formed signal, using the selected number of the plurality of transmitter chains.

  • Patent number: 10785732
    Abstract: A network node (840) and method therein for shaping an output power spectrum of a signal (920) to be transmitted in a wireless communications network are disclosed. The signal (920) is transmitted within a total frequency range or bandwidth comprising a first frequency bandwidth and a second frequency bandwidth. The network node increases or boosts a power of the signal (920) in a part of a first frequency bandwidth and/or decreases/deboosts a power of the signal (920) in a part of the total bandwidth outside the first frequency bandwidth. The network node then transmits the partly increased and/or decreased signal (920) to a wireless communication device (850) operating in the wireless communications network.

    Abstract: Methods performed by a wireless device operating in a dormant mode comprise performing a measurement on each of a plurality of resources from a predetermined set of resources or demodulating and decoding information from each of a plurality of resources from a predetermined set of resources, such as a set of beams. The methods further include evaluating the measurement or the demodulated and decoded information for each of the plurality of resources against a predetermined criterion, and then discontinuing the performing and evaluating of measurements, or discontinuing the demodulating and decoding and evaluation of information, in response to determining that the predetermined criterion is met, such that one or more resources in the predetermined set of resources are neither measured nor demodulated and decoded. The methods further comprise deactivating receiver circuitry, further in response to determining that the predetermined criterion is met.

  • Publication number: 20190349946
    Abstract: The solution presented herein is directed to communication devices having a plurality of circuits that may be configured into a plurality of different receiver configurations (or classes), where each receiver configuration uses a different technique for processing a received signal. The solution presented herein enables the communication device to select at least one receiver configuration/class for processing received signals. To that end, a performance metric is determined for each receiver configuration in a subset of receiver configurations using at least one of a received signal, a signal strength determined for the corresponding receiver configuration, and an interference level determined for the corresponding receiver configuration. At least one of the receiver configurations in the subset is selected responsive to the determined performance metrics, and in some cases also in response to a scheduled amount of data.
