Abstract: A method for filtering measurement values of a measurement quantity obtained from a communication between a mobile device and a mobile communication network and a mobile communication network device adapted to filter such measurement values are provided. A measurement value for the measurement quantity is to be periodically received at fixed points in time. The measurement value is filtered using a digital filter for obtaining a filtering result, wherein the filtering of the measurement value includes the weighting of the measurement value with a weighting coefficient. The filtering result can be provided for an adaptation of the communication link to the mobile device.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a target scheduling grant for a user is generated based on the uplink resource consumed by a plurality of users, and a scheduling grant for a user is generated based on the target scheduling grant and the uplink resource consumed by the user. More specifically, in one embodiment, a scheduling grant is generated for the user based on the target scheduling grant, the uplink resource consumed by the user, and a reference scheduling grant.

Abstract: In a method of avoiding multiple detection of the same random access channel (RACH) preamble in a wireless communication system, and within a given set of access slots, a given sub-set of available preamble signatures corresponding to a RACH preamble of a user may be detected, so as to avoid multiple RACH preamble detection in a given access slot. Another method may be directed to switching operations of a base station in a communication network. Base station operations may be switched back and forth between multi-sector/single cell operations and single sector/multi-cell operations without changing an existing antenna configuration.

Abstract: A DECT transmit-receive terminal comprises a plurality of transmit-receive antennas for communicating with a DECT base station, a device for determining the quality of a communications connection between the DECT transmit-receive terminal and the DECT base station, and a means for switching over from one transmit-receive antenna to another transmit-receive antenna, said switch-over means being connected to the determining device for switching over if the quality of the communications connection is below a predetermined threshold. An antenna diversity effect is thus realized for the DECT transmit-receive terminal by means of which the transmission quality of the communications connection is improved.

Abstract: A base station includes a transmission/reception device for communication with a mobile unit using one hopping sequence from a set of hopping sequences with a hopping sequence being a defined temporal sequence of transmission/reception frequencies and each hopping sequence differing from the other hopping sequences in the set. The base station also includes an identification device for the identification of the hopping sequence used for communication, so that the base station is always correlated with exactly one hopping sequence. A mobile unit allocated to that base station generates the hopping sequence used by the base station itself. Therefore by modification of the physical layer, but without modification to the higher protocol layers of DECT, an adaptation of applications designed for the DECT standard to the communication technology stipulated for the ISM bands can be achieved.
