  • Patent number: 9526104
    Abstract: A base station broadcasts first parameters identifying a first set of almost blank subframes on a primary carrier. The base station transmits at least one unicast control message comprising second parameters identifying a second set of almost blank subframes on a secondary carrier and cross carrier scheduling parameters indicating that the primary carrier carries scheduling information for the secondary carrier. During the time the cross carrier scheduling is configured and the secondary carrier is activated, when the primary carrier enters an almost blank subframe, the secondary carrier also enters an almost blank subframe.

  • Publication number: 20160316492
    Abstract: A wireless device receives control message(s) comprising parameters of a plurality of cell groups and a pathloss reference for each secondary cell. The wireless device transmits uplink signals in a first secondary cell in a secondary cell group.

  • Publication number: 20160316436
    Abstract: A wireless device determines a first transmission power for a first signal starting in a first subframe and a second transmission power for a second signal starting in a second subframe. When a calculated power value is more than an allowable transmission power a power control mechanism is employed. The wireless device reduces signal transmission power during an overlap period if the first subframe and the second subframe overlap in time by less than a first duration. The wireless device drops a signal if the first subframe and the second subframe overlap in time by more than a second duration.
