Abstract: An example implementation may include controlling receiving, in a first network, negotiation information for the asymmetric power usage of a shared spectrum; determining, in the first network, a minimum spectrum demand in dependence on the negotiation information; controlling receiving, in the first network, a minimum spectrum demand from at least one second network; and determining, in the first network, asymmetric power usage of the shared spectrum in dependence on the minimum spectrum demand from the at least one second network and the minimum spectrum demand of the first network.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a cellular-network-assisted wireless local area network (WLAN) channel switch announcement method, including the following steps: before a wireless network access point (AP) performs channel switching, delivering channel switch announcement signaling to correlated user equipment in a broadcast manner, and sending channel switch announcement request signaling to a cellular network base station that also serves the user equipment; after the cellular network base station receives the channel switch announcement request signaling, sending the channel switch announcement signaling to user equipment in an idle mode by using a cellular link air interface; and performing, by the WLAN AP, channel switching within a predetermined time, and following, by user equipment that directly acquires channel switch information by receiving the channel switch announcement signaling and user equipment that acquires channel switch information by using the cellular network base station, the WLAN AP an

Abstract: A method comprises determining in a base station of a first cell of a first network that there is an inactive second cell of a second, different network which is a candidate cell for a user equipment and causing an activation message to be sent to cause the activation of said inactive second cell.

Abstract: Disclosed is a network frequency spectrum sharing method, a user terminal of the present network sending a network signal strength measurement report of the different network to a home base station; an operation management node of the present network, based on the network signal strength measurement report, calculating a network overlapping level indicator of the different network, and obtaining network overlapping topology-based information of the different network; and the two networks exchanging the network overlapping topology-based information, and calculating a policy for allocating shared frequency spectrum resources therebetween. The present invention can enable different networks to fairly and reasonably share frequency spectrum resources within a specified range, thus increasing a frequency spectrum utilization rate.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an uplink resource scheduling method, and also discloses a corresponding terminal and base station. In the method, a base station calculates an uplink resource required to grant to a terminal by a base station according to a split bearer data ratio, and then performs uplink resource grant.

Abstract: Locating text areas in an image and recognizing text contents in the text areas through optical character recognition, OCR; selecting a first class of pending keywords from the recognized text contents to search for webpages; extracting a second class of pending keywords from the retrieved webpages; and determining one or more keywords corresponding to the image from at least the second class of pending keywords. With the embodiment, both OCR and webpage searching can be combined so that the webpages can be retrieved based upon the first class of pending keywords recognized and selected through OCR to ensure convergence of the keywords and then the second class of pending keywords can be selected from the retrieved webpages to ensure correctness of the keywords.
