Abstract: A cellular communications system in which transmission of control signals for plural different remote stations is so displaced in time that the transmission of control signals for one remote station does not interfere with the transmission of control signals for another remote station, the displacement being sufficient to prevent contemporaneous reception of control signals by the remote station intended for the other remote station.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and a device for handover to a serving network. The method includes: receiving a first Handover Request sent by a BSC/RNC; sending a second Handover Request to a target MME according to the first Handover Request, where the second Handover Request includes an IMSI and first information for determining a source SGSN so that the MME sends a Context Request message including the IMSI to the source SGSN and receives context information of a UE that corresponds to the IMSI and is sent by the source SGSN. Thereby avoiding a handover failure which is caused because the MSC server and the SGSN select different MMEs, and further synchronizing PS and CS handover processes, improving handover accuracy and efficiency, and enhancing user experience.

Abstract: A first radio has duplex communication with a second radio and a third radio, without using a base station by using a multiple-access protocol system. The first radio is configured to switch back and forth between being a master radio and a slave radio in the multiple-access protocol system. In some embodiments, time-division multiplexing is used as the multiple-access protocol system for the first radio, the second radio, and the third radio to communicate. In some embodiments, the master radio provides timing synchronization and/or assigns transmission slots for radios in the multiple-access protocol system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a new structure of a control channel region within a sub-frame of a 3GPP-based based communication system using OFDM in the downlink. This new structure of a control channel region is inter alia particularly suitable for conveying physical downlink control channel information from a donor eNodeB to a relay node. The control channel region is divided in CCEs that have equal size irrespective of the presence of further cell-specific and/or UE-specific reference signals within the control channel region. This is achieved by dividing the control channel region in plural sub-CCEs that are combined to CCEs all having equal size (in terms of resource elements that can be used for the signaling of control information). The control channel region is divided in the frequency domain and/or time domain in a FDM respectively TDM fashion in order to obtain the sub-CCEs.

Abstract: The application relates to the transport of SS7 signaling over an Internet Protocol based network and in particular to the routing of SS7 Signaling Network Management SSNM Messages such as Destination Unavailable DUNA and Signalling Congestion SCON by a SIGTRAN relay node. The SSNM messages are checked against a so-called “validation rule”, which either specifies a list of allowed affected point codes or a threshold rate of SSNM messages with the same affected point code. If the SSNM message is “valid” it is sent to a so-called “broadcast domain” which comprise nodes such as signaling endpoints or component of one or more application servers.
