SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING WIRELESS COMMUNICATION JAMMING IN A NETWORK

An electronic device may include a processor and a network interface that may include a first radio and a second radio. The processor may be configured to perform wireless communication jamming attack detection by occasionally performing clear channel verification utilizing the network interface to determine whether a threshold number of devices' channels are incapacitated in a wireless network within a threshold amount of time and/or by sending a heartbeat signal from the first radio and determining whether the second radio received the heartbeat signal.

20180006862 · 2018-01-04 ·

The present disclosure relates to a network information analysis in a wireless communication system, and an analysis method comprises the steps of: receiving information on channel quality measured by a terminal; and outputting information on whether a carrier aggregation (CA) coverage mismatch occurs at a location where the channel quality has been measured, which is determined on the basis of the information on the channel quality. Further, the present disclosure comprises other embodiments as well as the above-descried embodiment.

MOBILITY MANAGEMENT SWITCHING CENTER, COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD

A mobility management switching center is for communicating with user equipment of a communication system that supports LTE or 3G, the mobility management switching center including a receiver that receives a session management signal from the user equipment; and a transmitter that transmits, when the session management signal is received, a restriction signal for instructing not to transmit a new session management signal to the user equipment.

MANAGING SECONDARY CELL CONNECTIONS IN UNLICENSED SPECTRUM

In wireless communication networks using carrier aggregation including a secondary component carrier in unlicensed spectrum, a user equipment (UE) may monitor a downlink radio link quality of secondary cells for an event indicating failure of a communication link in the unlicensed spectrum with a secondary cell. The UE detects one or more failure events based on the downlink radio link quality. When a designated set of failure events is detected, the UE declares a failure state on the secondary cell. In response to the failure state, the UE may adjust operations related to the secondary component carrier in the unlicensed spectrum in order to save power and resources.

Method and Apparatus for Operating Configuration Adaptation for Interruption of Signal Transmission
20180013623 · 2018-01-11 ·

The operating configuration at a node in a wireless communication network, at a neighboring node in the network, and/or at one or more wireless devices supported by the network, is updated based on determining timing information for an impending interruption of a radio link in the network to avoid erroneous operation during the impending interruption, which interruption is associated with an external system. The determination of interruption timing, which may be inferred, e.g., from detecting prior interruptions, or which may be known from information about the external system, and the modification of the operating configuration(s) permits the network to operate with greater stability, control, and accuracy during the interruptions than would be possible if the interruptions were simply treated as intermittent radio link failures.
