  • Publication number: 20160198340
    Abstract: A resource allocation algorithm and operation procedure for user equipment (UE) to efficiently report cell global identity (CGI) information to an evolved node base station (eNB) in an automatic neighbor relation (ANR) operation procedure in a wireless communication system. According to an operating method of an eNB for CGI information reporting in a wireless communication system, a serving eNB receives a CGI information report and perform an ANR operation to maintain service quality through effective handover of UE at the edge of the service area of the serving eNB. When there is uplink/downlink data, the serving eNB stops data allocation to the UE and requests measurement reports (MRs) of neighbor eNBs, and the UE can be switched to a discontinuous reception (DRX) state during a DRX-inactivity time. Accordingly, it is possible to ensure decoding of a broadcast channel (BCH) of a neighbor cell and report CGI information.

  • Publication number: 20160042736
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method for processing a dialogue based on processing instructing expression in a multi-modal environment and an apparatus therefor. The method for processing a dialogue in an information processing device capable of processing digital signals includes the steps of: extracting an instructing expression from an inputted sentence; generating an intermediate instructing expression representing the modifying relations between the words constituting the extracted instructing expression; and searching the object corresponding with the intermediate instructing expression in a predetermined object search range. Thus, a terminal can be effectively and conveniently used without separately clarifying various instructing expressions representing things or objects with the terminal.
