Patent SG-162748-A1 (SG)
Title: Serving base station selection in a wireless communication system
Inventor: JULIAN DAVID JONATHAN
Filed: 2006-06-16
Abstract: Techniques for selecting a reverse link (RL) serving base station for a terminal are described. The terminal sends a transmission on the reverse link to multiple base stations in a wireless communication system. The transmission may be for signaling sent on a control channel. The terminal receives feedback (e.g., power control (PC) commands and/or erasure indications) from the multiple base stations. Each base station may generate feedback based on the control channel and/or some other transmission received from the terminal. The terminal performs reverse link power control and further selects an RL serving base station based on the received feedback. For example, the terminal may select the base station with the lowest transmit power level, the largest percentage of power down commands, or the lowest erasure rate as the RL serving base station.

Title: Channel state information measurement and reporting
Inventor: PEDERSEN KLAUS INGEMANN
Filed: 2011-10-05
Abstract: A rule specifies a timing relation between a measurement configuration which indicates at least one subframe to measure and a reporting configuration which indicates at least one subframe in which to report. This rule is used by both user equipment UE and network to map between a downlink subframe in which channel state information is measured and an uplink subframe in which the channel state information is reported. The network may configure the UE with the measurement and reporting configurations via dedicated signaling or broadcast. If the measurement configuration is periodic and indicates multiple downlink subframes to measure the rule results in a one to one mapping of downlink to uplink subframe where less than all of the multiple downlink subframes map to an uplink subframe; if aperiodic the rule indicates a single downlink subframe to measure.
