  • Publication number: 20180049238
    Abstract: A method in a wireless device for performing random access to a network node. The method comprises receiving a set of downlink beam-specific reference signals, BRS, from the network node, and determining a preferred BRS BRS based on the received signal power for each BRS. The method also comprises selecting, based on the preferred BRS, a random-access resource to be used for transmitting a random-access attempt to the network node, as well as using the selected random-access resource when transmitting a random-access attempt to the network node, whereby the selection of random-access resource indicates to the network node which downlink beam is preferred by the wireless device to be used for downlink transmissions.

  • Patent number: 9883533
    Abstract: A method by a user equipment is disclosed for decoding data from a network node in a telecommunications system. The method includes determining whether a discovery signal was received from the network node by detecting of another signal received from the network node, which may be a Primary Synchronization Signal (PSS) and/or a Secondary Synchronization Signal (SSS). Based on detecting that the another signal was received, the method includes determining whether a grant is present based on processing an Evolved Physical Downlink Control CHannel, ePDCCH. Based on determining that a grant is present, the method includes decoding a Physical Downlink Shared Channel, PDSCH, using the ePDCCH and the discovery signal.
