Title: Radio access traffic management
Inventor: JONES PHILIP EDWIN
IPC: H04W36/38
Filed: 2000-06-30
Granted: 2004-03-03
Abstract: A user terminal ranks a base station depending upon a computed virtual estimate of a characteristic of a received communication signal. Overloaded base stations 2,3,4 in a cellular communications network are moved down in the active sets of mobile terminals 1 by applying an offset to the received pilot power estimates. An overloaded base station will transmit a high offset value to a terminal 1, causing it to be moved down in the active set, thereby discouraging the terminal from requesting access or handover to such base station. The user terminal comprises means for receiving a communication signal from at least one base station and for computing an estimate of a characteristic of the received communication signal, means for receiving a communication signal degradation value associated with said at least one base station, means for comparing the estimate with the degradation value and for computing a virtual estimate from the comparison and means for ranking said base station depending upon the value of the computed virtual estimate.

Title: Control apparatus for use in a cellular system
Inventor: KANAI TOSHIHITO
IPC: H04W16/06
Filed: 1997-03-11
Granted: 2001-01-10
Abstract: To reduce the traffic load in a cell of a cellular communication system, the cell size is reduced thus transferring traffic to adjacent cells. The quality (bit error rate or frame error rate) of a communication channel is monitored, with a deterioration in quality indicating traffic overload. Cell size is reduced by reducing the power of a pilot signal transmitted from the cell's base station or by changing the hand-off parameters (which may be set in the mobile). Adjacent cells increase in size in the same manner so that no gap in coverage is produced. According to the invention, the power level of the pilot signal is decreased to a first predetermined level when the quality of a monitored CDMA channel is below a first level and is increased to a second predetermined level when the quality is above a second level.

Title: Method and apparatus for reducing radiant noise energy
Inventor: SUZUKI MITSUO
IPC: H01R13/7197
Filed: 2001-05-17
Granted: 2002-12-04
Abstract: An EMI suppression apparatus allowing a common mode radiant noise energy to be reduced without attenuating a normal mode signal level is disclosed. A communication LSI has an earth terminal connected to the housing via a common mode impedance. A common mode choke composed of two coils having a mutual inductance is provided in the housing. One coil connects a signal terminal of the communication LSI to a signal transmission wire. The other coil connects the earth terminal of the communication LSI to the quasi-ground surface of the housing. The common mode chokes causes a common mode radiant noise generated by the common mode impedance to be removed from the signal transmission wire without affecting a normal mode signal flowing through the signal transmission wire.
