Title: System and method of arbitrating access to interconnect
Inventor: RICHARDS JOSEPH
IPC: G06F13/16
Filed: 2014-02-25
Abstract: An interconnect has n input ports and m output ports. During each of n arbitration steps, each input port may reserve a connection to one or more of the m output ports in a different one of the next n transfer steps. Each input port creates an arbitration packet. Each packet has m flags corresponding to the output ports. Each input port reserves one or more output ports by setting flags in the packet it created. The packets are circulated to the next input port. Each port reserves output ports in the packet it received. This repeats until all the ports have had an opportunity to reserve ports in each packet. In the next n transfer steps, each packet is used in turn to configure the interconnect. Each output port is connected to the input port, which set the corresponding flag in the packet being used for that transfer step.

Title: Handover for base stations with cellular backhaul
Inventor: BANKS ROBERT EDWARD
IPC: H04W88/04
Filed: 2014-05-19
Abstract: Control of handover management at a first base station 2 in a cellular network is provided. A provisioning base station, for example, a donor eNodeB, of the cellular network provides the first base station 2 with a backhaul interface to the core network. Handover status information based on a handover status for the provisioning base station is communicated to the first base station 2. A request for the information, which may comprise a predetermined identifier, may be sent from the first base station 2 to a management part of the network. The request may be detected at the provisioning base station or at a network entity which facilitates communication between the first and provisioning base stations. A modified request is then sent to the core network with the predetermined identifier replaced with an identifier associated with the provisioning base station or network entity. In another aspect, the first base station 2 is configured for operation whilst mobile and a mobility parameter is determined for it, relating to a change in location for the first base station. Handover status information is communicated to the first base station based on the determined mobility parameter. The first base station 2 may be a femtocell on board a vehicle 5 such as a car or a train.
