  • Patent number: 12058591
    Abstract: A computing device may perform various aspects of the techniques described in this disclosure, and comprises a processor, a network interface, and a memory. The processor may receive, from a vehicle head unit, and via a wireless inter-device communication process, connection information identifying a wireless network provided by the vehicle head unit. The network interface may automatically establish, based on the connection information, a wireless network connection to the wireless network provided by the vehicle head unit. The processor may project, via the wireless network connection, a vehicle operating system to the vehicle head unit for display by the vehicle head unit. The memory may store the connection information.

  • Patent number: 8849332
    Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a node of a wireless communication system has a traffic load determiner, a cooperation capacity determiner and a power control unit. The traffic load determiner determines a traffic load in the wireless communication system and the cooperation capacity determiner determines an available cooperation capacity of the node with another node of the wireless communication system. Further, the power control unit activates or deactivates an antenna of a node based on the determined traffic load and the determined available capacity.

  • Publication number: 20130337818
    Abstract: An apparatus for determining a control unit of a plurality of control units in a wireless communication system for controlling cooperative transmission or reception between base stations and a wireless device includes a cluster feasibility processor configured to receive a cluster feasibility response from at least one other control unit than a control unit controlling a base station serving a wireless device containing information of a feasible wireline cluster of base stations controllable by the at least one other control unit; and a control unit selector configured to select the at least one control unit for controlling a cooperative transmission or a cooperative reception between at least two base stations and the wireless device based on the at least one received information of the feasible wireline cluster of base stations controllable by the at least one other control unit.

  • Publication number: 20130294288
    Abstract: A method for coordinated multipoint communication in a wireless communication network, which has a plurality of base stations and a backhaul network connecting the plurality of base stations, includes selecting one or more cooperating base stations for a coordinated multipoint communication for a mobile unit serviced by a serving base station, determining whether the backhaul network supports a coordinated multipoint technique selected for a cooperating base station, and in case the backhaul network is not sufficient to support a coordinated multipoint technique for one or more of the cooperating base stations, reconfiguring the backhaul network to meet the requirements of the coordinated multipoint technique.

  • Publication number: 20130244670
    Abstract: An apparatus for determining a core network configuration of a wireless communication system comprises cluster determiner. A core network of a wireless communication system has a plurality of base stations, a plurality of wireline links between the base stations and at least one control unit for controlling a cluster of base stations of the plurality of base stations. The cluster determiner determines as the core network configuration at least one cluster of base stations linked by wireline links and controlled by a same control unit based on a predefined basic network configuration, so that latencies between each base station of the cluster and the control unit of the cluster are below a maximal allowable latency. The predefined basic network configuration represents information about all base stations of a core network to be configured and about possible wireline links between the base stations.
