20150065169 | Method and Arrangement in a Telecommunication System - Method and arrangement in a network node for improving conditions for ground-based positioning of mobile terminals in a wireless communication system are disclosed. The method and arrangement concerns adaptation of an antenna arrangement associated with the network node, so that a virtual positioning cell is formed in a positioning radio resource, in which positioning reference signals are transmitted or received. In one exemplary embodiment, the antenna arrangement is adapted to form the virtual positioning cell by changing the radiation pattern of at least one antenna used for communication of user data traffic. | 03-05-2015 |
20150078156 | Integrated Multi-Radio Access Technology Multi-Frequency Admission Control - A node of a multiple radio access technology (multi-RAT) system acquires resource status information associated with each RAT of the multi-RAT system. The resource status information of the RATs of the multi-RAT system can be acquired by sniffing higher layer protocol information pertaining to call setup requests and/or call terminated messages. The node further maintains a flag representing overall resource availability associated with the RATs of the multi-RAT system, based on the acquired resource status information, for use in admission control and/or load balancing. The flag is associated with a pre-defined set of overall resource availability states of the multi-RAT system, where the availability states are defined in terms of admission control decisions. | 03-19-2015 |
20150099540 | Positioning Node, User Equipment and Methods Therein - Embodiments herein relate to a method in a user equipment for enabling positioning of the user equipment in a radio communications network. The user equipment is served in a first cell controlled by a radio network node. The user equipment knows or can obtain a system frame number of at least one cell. The user equipment, a positioning node, and the radio network node are included in the radio communications network. The user equipment receives, from the positioning node, a message comprising positioning assistance data, wherein the positioning assistance data comprises information associated with the at least one cell for which the system frame number is known or can be obtained by the user equipment. The user equipment also performs a positioning measurement using the positioning assistance data and the system frame number of the at least one cell to enable positioning of the user equipment. | 04-09-2015 |
