Further, the UE remains on the first PLMN based on a normal service state and the UE does not perform an additional PLMN selection during a duration of the direct communication in the second PLMN based on the limited service state. | 2020-07-02 |
20200213939 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENHANCED FREQUENCY ALLOCATION - Systems and methods for improving network resource allocation are disclosed. The system can determine which user's equipment (UEs) can be reallocated from a first network (e.g., one of the 4G network or the 5G network) to a second network (e.g., the other of the 4G network or the 5G network) to reduce load on the first network. The system can determine which UEs are capable of using each type of network and which services or applications that are suitable for use on each type of network. Due to differences in propagation and penetration distances of various frequency spectrums, the system can also determine which UEs have sufficient signal strength for each type of network. The system can reside on the network, on the UEs, or on both the network and the UE. The system can switch back and forth between multiple networks as conditions, applications, or other factors change. | 2020-07-02 |
20200213940 | CONTROLLER FOR PRECISELY POWERING REMOTE RADIO HEADS ON A CELL TOWER - Disclosed is a system and method for providing stable and reliable power to components on the top of a cell tower. The system performs a device discovery process to determine with Power Supply Units are connected to which Remote Radio Heads on the tower. It also provides several ways of characterizing the power cables and input capacitance to the Remote Radio Heads to provide optimal power to the Remote Radio Heads, including situations in which the power demand for the Remote Radio Heads increases, while obviating the need to replace the power cables with those of greater current capacity. Further, the system provides for stable power even in the presence of sensor instabilities and data dropouts. | 2020-07-02 |
20200213941 | COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION TERMINAL DEVICE AND BASE STATION DEVICE - A communication system capable of preventing unnecessary switching of an energy saving cell between a normal operation state and an energy saving state. An energy saving cell (ES cell) is in a dormant state that is the energy saving state. In this case, when being notified of a wake-up request message from a communication terminal device (UE), the ES cell executes access restriction control to judge whether the UE can access its own cell. If judging that the UE can access its own cell, the ES cell switches on its own cell and shifts from the dormant state to an active state that is the normal operation state. | 2020-07-02 |
