Technology is discussed for self-optimization approaches within wireless networks to optimize networks for energy efficiency, load capacity, and/or mobility, together with new, supporting channel state measurements and handover techniques. New, Channel State Information-Reference Signals (CSI-RSs) for yet-to-be-configured Cell-IDentifications (Cell-IDs) can be used to determine whether adjacent transmission cells can provide coverage for transmission cells that can be switched off for energy efficiency during formation of a Single Frequency Network (SFN). New approaches are also discussed to facilitate mobility within such a network. The new CSI-RSs and mobility approaches can also be used to split up such a SFN when changing load demands so require. Additionally, such new approaches can be used to create a SFN with a common Cell-ID where high mobility is required, such as near a roadway, and to break it up where high capacity is required, such as during a period of traffic congestion.

Interference cancellation techniques may be implemented in a radio transceiver configured to transmit a radio-frequency transmit signal at a transmit frequency and having two or more local oscillators operative to simultaneously generate local oscillator signals, at corresponding local oscillator frequencies, for simultaneously down-converting two or more corresponding received radio-frequency signals. An example method begins with identifying one or more self-interfering frequencies, based on the local oscillator frequencies and the transmit frequency. A baseband cancellation signal is then generated by weighting and frequency-shifting a baseband representation of the transmit signal, based on the identified self-interfering frequencies. The baseband cancellation signal is then combined with a down-converted received signal, to obtain an interference-reduced baseband signal.

NARROWBAND SERVICE DEPLOYMENT IN WIDEBAND CARRIER GUARD-BAND

Номер: US20190141705A1
Принадлежит: Telefonaktiebolaget lM Ericsson (publ)

A wideband carrier (e.g., LTE carrier) is shifted up or down in frequency, within an allocated frequency band, by an integer multiple of the channel raster spacing (e.g., 100 KHz). This reduces the size of the guard band on one side of the carrier, and expands the guard band on the other side. A narrowband carrier (e.g., NB-IoT carrier) is then deployed within the expanded guard band, at or near a frequency such that the transmission is orthogonal to the wideband carrier transmissions, such as by using a shared N frequency grid spacing (e.g. at 100 KHz spacing, and using 15 KHz subcarriers). The narrowband carrier thus maintains orthogonality with the wideband carrier, but has “room” within the expanded guard band to both transmit on a frequency close to the frequency grid spacing, and to boost transmit power (e.g., by 6 dB), while remaining within the spectral mask. The shifted wideband carrier is transparent to wideband UEs, as the frequency shift is an integer multiple of the channel raster spacing. 126-. (canceled)27.

Systems and methods are described for mapping Virtual Radio Instances (VRIs) into physical volumes of coherencein a Multiple Antenna System (MAS) with Multi-User (MU) transmissions (“MU-MAS”). These mapping methods enable communications through simultaneous non-interfering data streams in the same frequency band between the MU-MAS and multiple users, within their own volume of coherence. As the users move, their VRIs follow their respective volumes of coherence via teleportation to adjacent MU-MAS networks, thereby eliminating the need for handoffs as in conventional cellular systems and unnecessary control data overhead.
