Patent number: 9131421Abstract: Systems and techniques for handover management between adjacent cells. A base station, such as a macro base station serving a macro cell identifies a user device as a candidate for handover based on specified criteria and communicates a handover request to a femto base station. The femto base station evaluates specified conditions, such as energy efficiency, for the cell it is serving and allows the handover only if the handover would improve the conditions.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventors: Matti Latva-Aho, Kapuruhamy Manosha

Patent number: 7627347Abstract: A solution for optimizing beamforming configurations and transmit power allocation configurations in a telecommunication system comprising a base station and a plurality of user entities is provided. The base station and the user entities are capable of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications, i.e. capable of communicating through spatial subchannels. The base station calculates iteratively optimal beamforming configurations for the base station and for each user entity and transmit power allocation configurations for each spatial subchannel used in MIMO communications. The base station carries out the calculation on the basis of channel state information received from the user entities by utilizing the information on correlation of different spatial subchannels, i.e. interference between the subchannels, in order to update beamforming configurations and transmit power allocation configurations.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2006Date of Patent: December 1, 2009Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Marian Ionee Codreanu, Antti Tölli, Markku Juntti, Matti Latva-Aho

Patent number: 5589795Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for controlling a loop filter of a digital phase lock, the loop filter filtering a difference signal, which comes from a phase comparator at a predetermined bandwidth and is proportional to a phase error.
