Radio link failures, “RLF”, of a wireless device served by a wireless communication network are managed. A first, default, RLF procedure is associated with at least a first type of wireless devices supported by the wireless communication network. The wireless device obtains, e.g. received from a network node information indicative of a second RLF procedure based on that the wireless device is of a second type having an improved radio coverage capability compared to the first type. The wireless device applies, based on the obtained information, said second RLF procedure.

A method for serving node establishment includes sending, by a network device, information about a micro network time-frequency resource pool to a terminal; and sending measurement configuration information to the terminal. The measurement configuration information instructs the terminal to serve, when the terminal determines that the terminal meets a preset condition of a first measurement event, as a first serving node to send exclusive information of the first serving node on a first time-frequency resource in the micro network time-frequency resource pool according to the information about the micro network time-frequency resource pool, and the first measurement event is any one of the at least one measurement event.

Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, user equipment (UE) comprising circuitry to connect to a network via a serving cell; and indicate to the network a measurement gap capability of the UE. The measurement gap capability includes information if the UE supports a carrier aggregation (CA) specific measurement gap and if the UE has two or more radio-frequency (RF) chains. The UE then receives a CA specific measurement gap configuration from the network for the two or more RF chains.

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.

First information corresponding to a radio signal received at a first sensing device from a candidate location is obtained. Second information corresponding to a radio signal received at a second sensing device from the candidate location is obtained. A first relationship between the first sensing device and the candidate location and a second relationship between the second sensing device and the candidate location are determined. A first inverse and a second inverse of respectively the first and second relationships are obtained. A first estimate of the radio signal at the first sensing device is determined from the first information and the first inverse. A second estimate of the radio signal at the second sensing device is determined from the second information and the second inverse. Energy emitted from the candidate location is measured based on the first estimate and the second estimate.

Aspects described herein relate to using antenna-switched diversity (ASDIV) in wireless communications. A serving node can be communicated with using a serving radio access technology (RAT) and based on an ASDIV configuration, wherein the ASDIV configuration defines an antenna switching configuration including a state of one or more switches in an ASDIV switch group for switching between one or more antennas for the communicating based on sensing one or more parameters of the communicating. It can be determined whether a target RAT supports operating using a same ASDIV switch group as the serving RAT. A target node can be communicated with using the target RAT and based on the ASDIV configuration where the target RAT operates using the same ASDIV switch group as the serving RAT.
