  • Patent number: 9198190
    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a method in a first communication node (201) for estimating pre-coding weights for transmission on a radio channel (205) between the first node (201) and a second communication node (203) in a communication network (200). The first node (201) comprises at least two transmit antennas. Each transmit antenna is configured to transmit on each of at least two sub-bands. The first node (201) obtains at least two pre-coding reports. Each pre-coding report is for a different time instance. Each pre-coding report comprises pre-coding weights or indications to pre-coding weights. The pre-coding weights are associated with each transmit antenna and with each sub-band. For each transmit antenna, the first node (201) estimates pre-coding weights for at least one of the sub-bands based on the pre-coding weights in the obtained pre-coding reports. The estimated pre-coding weights are different from a most resent of the obtained pre-coding reports.

  • Patent number: 9167540
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods, a user equipment and a communication network node for efficiently utilizing radio resources in a communication system comprising said communication network node (15) serving cells (19) between which one or more user equipment (18) is moving. When a user equipment (18) detects a power shortage situation it is arranged to transmit a report, such as a scheduling information signalling, triggered by the power shortage situation, whereby the communication network node is allowed to take a pre-determined action regarding the available radio resources.

  • Patent number: 8611943
    Abstract: A method, an apparatus and a computer program for controlling updating of a signal quality target (405) for power control of an ongoing radio transmission (101) in a radio communication system (SYS1), wherein the signal quality target is updated based on communication quality. The method includes detecting (301) a change in transmission format from a first transmission format to a second transmission format for the radio transmission. Any updates causing the signal quality target to increase due to communication quality being below a set communication quality target are blocked (302) for a predefined blocking period after detecting said change in transmission format.

  • Patent number: 8391912
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for predicting a bit rate provided by an enhanced data channel in a future radio channel, once the future radio channel is added to an ordinary data channel in an operational radio channel. It is assumed that the bit-rate provided by the enhanced data channel is indicated by the ratio (A), wherein E is the enhanced data channel power offset, E is the ordinary control channel power offset after a future addition and k1 is a constant. The method comprises with respect to the operational radio channel the steps of obtaining a first transmit power P1, a first quality target Q1, the power offset O for an ordinary control channel and the power offset O for the ordinary data channel. In addition, the method comprises with respect to the future radio channel the steps of obtaining a second transmit power P2 and a second quality target Q2.

  • Publication number: 20100041427
    Abstract: Within a cell area, an RBS typically provides communication services to UEs. During operation, the UE adjusts its transmission power according to a transmission parameter value such as the E-TFCI. The RBS provides a predetermined number of reference points for E-TFCI that covers the limited range. For any intermediate values not specifically provided, the UE calculates the SIR through interpolation. The RBS predicts a range of transmission power likely to be used by the UE and provides the reference points based on the prediction. The prediction is performed based on operational measurement.

  • Publication number: 20090280822
    Abstract: The invention is directed towards a method and transmission attempt determining device for adjusting the targeted number of transmission attempts in uplink communications between mobile stations and a cell in a wireless network handled by a cell handling device. According to the invention measurement data (RC) of radio conditions and service requirement data (SR) of the uplinks for mobile stations are obtained (36, 38, 40). Based on this data a determination (42) is made if the targeted number of transmission attempts should be adjusted. If a change should be made (42) an increase or a decrease is then determined (44) and the targeted number of transmission attempts are adjusted in the selected direction (46).

  • Publication number: 20060140115
    Abstract: The invention relates to resource allocation in communications systems (1). In such a system (1), the pool of resources that can be provided to connected user equipment (400, 410) for usage in conducting communications services are divided into multiple resources classes. This class division is based on a characteristic allocation time of resource allocation procedures that can be applied on resources of the different classes. For each class, a resource utilization measure is determined. It is then determined, based on this measure, whether or not a resource allocation procedure associated with the current class should be triggered. This selective triggering can be realized through a comparison between the measure and a threshold associated with the current class. Both the measure determination and selective triggering are performed for a given class before continuing with a next class, preferably starting with the class having slowest resource allocation procedures.
