A method for amending, by a rule engine, a network element in a telecommunications network containing network elements each described by at least one parameter. An authorization database contains information for who and what extent configuring operators have access to the network elements, and a rule repository containing parameter dependent rules describing which activity is carried out for the network elements, and parameter dependent security information describing whether and how configuring operators are supervised by a security administrator when amending and how the authorization database is amended for a network element. A request for amending the network element in the network is identified and its parameter is determined. A rule is determined in the rule repository for which the parameter corresponds to the parameter of the amended network element and the security information for the determined rule is determined. The authorization database is updated using the security information.

In a wireless mobile communications system, a method of transmitting and receiving radio access information that allows a faster and an efficient way of establishing a radio connection between a terminal and a target base station while performing a handover for the terminal to a cell of the target base station. The network transmits in advance, the radio access information and the like, to the terminal so that the terminal can be connected with the target cell in a faster manner which minimizes the total time for the handover process.

A sensor status indicator (SSI) assembly comprises a sensing interface configured to be communicatively coupled to a wiring harness of a sensor and receive a sensor signal therefrom. The sensor signal indicates a sensor status corresponding to a status of an apparatus to which the sensor is coupled. The SSI assembly also includes at least one visual indicator; and a controller communicatively coupled to the sensing interface and the at least one visual indicator. The controller is configured to interpret the sensor signal to determine the sensor status, and activate the at least one visual indicator to generate a visual signal corresponding to the sensor status.

Disclosed are an analog channel measurement method and a base station, for use in implementing measurement of an analog channel in a digital-analog hybrid beamforming system. The method is such that: a base station receives a reference signal, where the base station comprises a digital-analog hybrid beamforming antenna system, and the digital-analog hybrid beamforming antenna system comprises digital channels and analog channels; the base station selects an analog channel group from an analog channel group set on the basis of the reference signal and employs the reference signal in measuring each analog channel of the selected analog channel group, where the number of analog channels that each analog channel group comprises is equal to the number of digital channels in the digital-analog hybrid beamforming antenna system.
