Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus performs a first processing for changing the receiving beam in a first direction to determine a first angle for the receiving beam. The wireless communication apparatus performs a second processing for changing the receiving beam in the first direction from the first angle to determine a second angle that is a final angle for the receiving beam.

Abstract: A method for supporting wireless connectivity of a mobile station to a cellular network, wherein the mobile station is located within the coverage area of a femtocell base station of which it is a non-CSG mobile station, and wherein the mobile station experiences interference which it indicates to the femtocell base station, is characterized in that the femtocell base station, upon receiving the experienced interference indication from the non-CSG mobile station, triggers the non-CSG mobile station to report interference related information, wherein, based on the interference related information, the femtocell base station performs a first check whether it is originator of the interference experienced by the non-CSG mobile station. Furthermore, a corresponding femtocell base station for supporting wireless connectivity of a mobile station to a cellular network is disclosed.

Abstract: For allowing a reliable communication within a network by simple constructive features a method for operating a network is claimed, wherein a number of base stations are grouped into a cluster and are connected to a cluster controller and wherein the cluster controller is providing access of the base stations to a main network. The method is characterized in that the cluster controller is mitigating interference within and/or outside the cluster on the basis of a measurement information and/or report from at least one base station. Further, an according network is claimed, preferably for carrying out the above mentioned method.

Abstract: A method for supporting an operational wireless connection of a mobile station to a macrocell or femtocell base station—current base station—, wherein the mobile station is located both within the coverage area of the current base station and in the coverage area of another base station—foreign base station—, in particular a femtocell base station, wherein the mobile station has access authorization to the current base station and no access authorization to the foreign base station, is characterized in that a restricted connection is permitted between the mobile station and the foreign base station.

Abstract: A method of subcarrier allocation in an OFDMA-based communication network, wherein the network includes a network controller and a number of base stations, wherein the network is divided into different cells and/or sectors, and wherein subchannels are generated by forming subsets of active orthogonal subcarriers of the OFDMA frame structure, is characterized in that the base stations measure the traffic load and/or the interference from neighboring and/or other cells and/or sectors, wherein an allocation of the subchannels to the cells and/or sectors is performed on the basis of the results of the measurements. Furthermore, a network applying OFDMA technology is disclosed.
