  • Patent number: 10779161
    Abstract: Network insights may be useful in various communication networks. For example, certain cellular or similar networks may benefit from the delivery of cellular network insights to subscriber devices through service set identifier (SSID). A method can include detecting, by a device, at least one advertised value of non-cellular access, wherein the at least one advertised value is received by the device over a cellular system information block message. The method can also include extracting, from the at least one advertised value, at least one cellular network insight for a cellular network condition.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20170150393
    Abstract: There are provided measures for dynamic quality of service management. Such measures exemplarily include queuing, for a bearer being a virtual connection with associated bearer transmission attributes aggregating at least one packet flow of packets, each of said at least one packet flow separately, and prioritizing each of said at least one packet flow based on a desired treatment of said respective packet flow.

  • Patent number: 8798654
    Abstract: It is provided a method, including deciding, based on a previously estimated interference value, whether a user equipment or a sounding reference signal or a channel of a received uplink signal is affected by a colored interference more than a first predefined threshold, wherein colored interference is an interference having a spatial and/or spectral predominance; and suppressing interference rejection combining on the uplink signal if none of the user equipment, the sounding reference signal, and the channel of the received uplink signal is affected more than the first predefined threshold.

  • Publication number: 20040184433
    Abstract: The present invention relates to third generation cellular networks and, in particular, to the backbone ATM switching network between a base station and other base stations or other networks. The present invention seeks to provide a 3G cellular communications system with a reduced likelihood of failure. In accordance with a first aspect of the invention there is provided a third generation wireless communications network including a plurality of base station radio interfaces which provide cellular wireless coverage; at least one Node B and a radio network controller. The system is configured such that there are at least two signal paths between the said at least one node and the radio network controller whereby to provide an IMA protection mode or an IMA aggregation mode.
