20100273451 | Method and Apparatus for Mobile Terminal Positioning Operations - In one aspect of the invention presented herein, a mobile terminal requests positioning assistance data from its supporting wireless communication network, in response to receiving a positioning request from a positioning node. Further, in response to receiving the positioning assistance data from the network, the mobile terminal sends the positioning assistance data to the positioning node. In this manner, the positioning node advantageously gains access to network-generated positioning assistance data without need for requesting it from the network. In at least one embodiment, the mobile terminal receives the positioning request from the positioning node over a User Plane (UP) connection. However, the mobile terminal sends the positioning assistance data request to the base station over a Control Plane (CP) connection, and receives the requested positioning assistance data via the CP. The terminal transfers that data to the UP and sends it to the positioning node. | 10-28-2010 |
20110044284 | Energy-Saving Mechanisms in a Heterogeneous Radio Communication Network - There is provided support mechanisms for at least one adding and removing a cell from operation in a heterogeneous radio network having a first type of basic cell for providing basic radio coverage and a second type of cell associated to a basic cell as a capacity enhancing cell. A capacity enhancing cell is selectively switched on and off (S | 02-24-2011 |
20110243063 | Method for Configuring the Link Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) in a User Equipment (UE) - In a System Architecture Evolution/Long Term Evolution (SAE/LTE) radio network, the network is set to configure the link MTU in the UE for each bearer where the network-configured link MTU can represent an MTU of a path for a SAE bearer service in complete or part of a particular SAE/LTE network. | 10-06-2011 |

20120289284 | Cell Type Information Sharing Between Neighbor Base Stations - The present invention relates to a method and arrangement for cell type information sharing between neighbour base stations in a telecommunications system. One embodiment comprises informing a second radio base station serving a second cell and having a neighbour relation with a first cell served by a first base station, of at least the cell type of the first cell. This is accomplished by adding the cell type information to a set of information to be signaled to the second base station, and then signalling the set of information to the second base station. | 11-15-2012 |

20150071154 | Energy-Saving Mechanisms in a Heterogeneous Radio Communication Network - There is provided support mechanisms for at least one adding and removing a cell from operation in a heterogeneous radio network having a first type of basic cell for providing basic radio coverage and a second type of cell associated to a basic cell as a capacity enhancing cell. A capacity enhancing cell is selectively switched on and off. When the capacity enhancing cell is shut down the cell does not exist over the air while cell configuration information is kept. When the capacity enhancing cell is switched on the cell becomes available again over the air interface. An indication of shut-down and a wake-up call message for switch-on of the capacity enhancing cell are communicated between a base station serving the capacity enhancing cell and a base station serving the basic cell. In this way energy savings can be supported without disrupting service availability. | 03-12-2015 |
