Abstract: There is provided a method of transmitting feedback information from a mobile terminal in a wireless communication system. The feedback information relates to multi-flow High-Speed Downlink Packet Access, HSDPA, transmissions to the mobile terminal from cells belonging to multiple cell sectors. The cell sectors are sometimes simply referred to as sectors. The method comprises transmitting multiple High-Speed Dedicated Physical Control Channels, HS-DPCCHs, one HS-DPCCH for each sector, such that different HS-DPCCH channels are used to carry feedback information for cells that belong to different sectors. This opens up for a more flexible HS-DPCCH solution, allowing multiple HS-DPCCHs. In this way, the relevant time budget(s) for the mobile terminal and/or base station may be retained or conserved even for multi-flow HSDPA transmission scenarios, thus avoiding re-transmissions of data.

Abstract: The invention presents methods and corresponding devices for improving cooperative spectrum initiating sensing. A device (61;61.1) first receives an invitation (17;35) to participate in cooperative spectrum sensing. The device performs an autonomous decision (19) on whether or not to participate in the cooperative spectrum sensing in response to the invitation. If it is determined to participate in the cooperative spectrum sensing to which the invitation relates, spectrum sensing is then performed (21;45). With the invention, sensor selection becomes “distributed”, i.e. it is up to the device itself to decide on participation in the cooperative sensing, rather than having, for example, a central entity determining what devices should act as sensors in the cooperative spectrum sensing. One advantage is that the amount of signalling required for sensor selection can be kept at a minimum, thereby saving communication resources.
