  • TTI switching for multicarrier HSUPA
    Patent number: 10523394
    Abstract: It is presented a method for control of Transmission Time Interval (TTI) combinations in multicarrier High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA). The method is performed in a serving node of a communication network and comprises sending a single High Speed Signalling Control Channel (HS-SCCH) order for TTI switching of a primary Uplink (UL) frequency and for TTI switching of a secondary uplink frequency to a user equipment. It is also presented a serving node, a user equipment, a computer program and a computer program product thereof.
