Publication number: 20210289335Abstract: A communication system is provided that can improve the communication capability of a communication terminal device in the case where a large number of small cells in addition to a macro cell are installed and operated. A communication terminal device (UE) is connected with a macro cell configured by a MeNB and a small cell configured by a SeNB, so that dual connectivity is performed. When receiving information for small cells, for example, emergency information from a CBC via an MME, at least one cell of the macro cell and the small cell notifies the communication terminal device connected with the at least one cell of the information for small cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2021Publication date: September 16, 2021Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Mitsuru MOCHIZUKI, Kuniyuki SUZUKI, Futoshi KATADA, Hirochika HIRAKI

Publication number: 20180242261Abstract: In a communication system of the present invention, a HeNB measures interference in Step ST41 in an energy saving mode. When judging to have detected the interference by a UE during communication with an eNB in Step ST42, the HeNB cancels the energy saving mode and moves to a normal mode in Step ST43 and starts issuing a pilot signal in Step ST44. When the UE judges to have detected the pilot signal in Step ST23 and reports the judgment results to the eNB in Step ST24, in Steps ST25 to ST32, a handover process from the eNB to the HeNB is performed for the UE.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2018Publication date: August 23, 2018Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Yasuhiro Onaka, Miho Maeda, Mitsuru Mochizuki, Taisei Suemitsu, Futoshi Katada, Yozo Fukuda
