Patent number: 9893783Abstract: Data in a mobile communications system is transmitted on at least one channel between at least one base station with multiple antennas and at least one user equipment. A base station applies precoding to the data based on a set of predefined codebooks. A first tracking mode with a first codebook from the set of predefined codebooks is used for the precoding, and at least a second tracking mode with at least a second codebook from the set of predefined codebooks is used for the precoding. The base station switches between the first tracking mode and the second tracking mode depending on at least one condition of the channel.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2007Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Josef Martin Eichinger, Volker Jungnickel, Egon Schulz, Wolfgang Zirwas

Patent number: 9379850Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling retransmissions in multipoint reception is disclosed. In the method it is determined that additional information is needed for decoding of at least one received information block. A procedure is selected for obtaining the additional information from a plurality of options to proceed based on information about predicted result of at least one of the options. In accordance with an aspect an indication of one of a positive acknowledgement of the information block, a negative acknowledgement of the information block and suspension of retransmission of the information block is generated and communicated on a retransmission control channel.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2011Date of Patent: June 28, 2016Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventors: Christian Mahr, Hannu Tapio Häkkinen, Hans Kroener, Josef Martin Eichinger, Martin Goldberg, Kari Juhani Hooli, Sabine Roessel, Matti Tapani Kiiski, Kari Pekka Pajukoski, Esa Tapani Tiirola

Patent number: 8995917Abstract: A method detects a first baseband signal sent by a first sending station via an air interface to a first radio station of a radio communications system. A first receive signal, which contains the first baseband signal superposed with at least a second baseband signal sent by a second sending station to a second radio station, is received by the first radio station. The first radio station uses at least a second receive signal received by the second radio station for detection of the first baseband signal. The second receive signal contains at least the second baseband signal, and is used to at least partially cancel the interference in the first receive signal caused by the second baseband signal.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2007Date of Patent: March 31, 2015Assignees: Nokia Siemens Networks GmbH & Co. KG, Fraunhofer Gesellschaft zur Foerderung der Angewandten Forschung E.v.Inventors: Josef Martin Eichinger, Thomas Haustein, Volker Jungnickel, Wolfgang Zirwas, Clemens von Helmolt

Patent number: 7773635Abstract: Resources of two frequency division duplex (FDD) frequency bands at a distance from each other are allocated for transmissions by a time division duplex (TDD) transmission method. The resources in the first FDD frequency band are allocated for FDD transmissions in the uplink and for TDD transmissions predominantly in the uplink as the primary transmission direction, and in a secondary manner in the downlink as the secondary transmission direction. The resources in the second FDD frequency band are allocated for FDD transmissions in the downlink and for TDD transmissions predominantly in the downlink as the primary transmission direction and in a secondary manner in the uplink as the secondary transmission direction. No resources are allocated for time periods of an allocation of resources for one of the secondary transmission directions in the first and second frequency bands, for FDD transmissions in the counter transmission direction to this secondary transmission direction.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2006Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Nokia Siemens Networks GmbH & Co.

Publication number: 20100002618Abstract: A first radio station receives a message in a first frequency band from a second radio station and passes the message to a third radio station in a second frequency band, where the width of the first frequency band differs from the width of the second frequency band. The modulation of the data in the message is maintained unchanged and the first radio station is not required to perform decoding of the message.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2006Publication date: January 7, 2010Inventors: Josef Martin Eichinger, Egon Schulz, Wolfgang Zirwas
