Problems solved by technology

Restricting the RS from only these slots results in a noisy RSRP (or similar) measurement, thus requiring a longer averaging time to generate a useful value, thus delaying the handover process

Abstract

A user equipment (UE) in a cellular telecommunications system is able to detect the uplink / downlink configuration of a detected neighboring cell by receiving a signal from the neighboring cell. A characteristic of the received signal is detected and used as an indicator in a blind detection process to identify one or more downlink slots in the received signal. Known pilot signals in the identified one or more downlink slots can then be used to obtain a signal power measurement of the received signal. The blind detection process is also capable of detecting whether a slot of a neighboring cell's signal is a downlink unicast slot or a Multicast-Broadcast Single Frequency Network slot.

Description

Background technique [0001] The present invention relates to cellular telecommunications, more particularly to cellular telecommunications employing both frequency division duplex (FDD) and time division duplex (TDD) transmission, and even more particularly to enabling user equipment, inter alia, to A (UE) method and apparatus capable of determining whether a transmission of a neighboring cell is an uplink or a downlink transmission. [0002] In the upcoming evolution of mobile cellular standards like Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) and Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), new transmission technologies like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) may emerge. Furthermore, for a smooth migration of existing cellular systems to new high-capacity high-data-rate systems in the existing radio spectrum, the new system must be able to utilize bandwidths of varying sizes. One proposal for such a flexible cellular system known as Third Generation Long...
