Wireless communication system performing mutual wireless communication between terminals to perform time difference measurement and propagation time measurement
In performing wireless communication between terminals to perform time difference measurement and propagation time measurement, first and second terminals that transmit a signal at least once in attempting space-time synchronization are included. The first terminal measures a reception phase of a locally transmitted signal, and a reception phase of a signal transmitted by the second terminal, adds a positive or negative phase to the measured reception phase, and makes a report to the second terminal. The second terminal measures a reception phase of a locally transmitted signal, and a reception phase of a signal transmitted by the first terminal, and makes a report to the first terminal. The first and second terminals obtain a time difference or propagation time according to a reception phase measured by a local device and reported from a counterpart, and obtain additional information based on a phase reflected in the time difference or propagation time.
BASE STATION DEVICE, MOBILE STATION DEVICE, PROGRAM, UPLINK SYNCHRONIZATION REQUESTING METHOD, AND SYNCHRONIZATION-SHIFT MEASUREMENT SIGNAL TRANSMITTING METHOD
A mobile station device that receives control information having a downlink control information format and addressed by a Cell-Radio Network Temporary Identifier on a physical downlink control channel from a base station device. The mobile station device also transmits a random access preamble using a random access channel to the base station device based on receiving the control information which provides a random access order. The downlink control information format includes a first field for downlink resource assignment. In a first case that the downlink control information form at is used for the random access order, a fixed value is set to the first field, while in a second case in which the downlink control information format is used for downlink scheduling, a first value different from the fixed value is set to the first field.
SYNCHRONIZING A CLOUD RADIO ACCESS NETWORK TO A NETWORK TIME PROTOCOL REFERENCE CLOCK
A cloud radio access network (C-RAN) includes a baseband controller communicatively coupled to a plurality of radio points (RP) via a fronthaul network. Each of the plurality of RPs are configured to exchange radio frequency (RF) signals with at least one user equipment (UE).

Group delay calibration for carrier aggregation / multi-radio access technology
Disclosed are techniques for handling of radio frequency (RF) front-end group delays for roundtrip time (RTT) estimation. In an aspect, a network node transmits first and second RTT measurement (RTTM) signals to a user equipment (UE) and receives first and second RTT response (RTTR) signals from the UE. The network node measures the transmission times of the RTTM signals and the reception times of the RTTR signals, and the UE measures the transmission times the RTTM signals and the transmission times of the RTTR signals. The group delays of the transmit/receive chains of the network node and the UE are determined for one set of transmit/receive chains based on the first RTTM signal and first RTTR signal. The group delays of the transmit/receive chain used for the second RTTM signal and the second RTTR signal are determined relative to the group delay of the one set of transmit/receive chains.

Blockchain management using a device in a wireless telecommunication system
Devices in a wireless telecommunication system can implement a blockchain that is distributed among the devices. For example, a base transceiver station of the wireless telecommunication system can receive, from a mobile device, a wireless radio communication that includes information associated with a blockchain transaction. The base transceiver station can convert the information associated with the blockchain transaction into an internet protocol (IP)-based format. The base transceiver station can update the blockchain by propagating the formatted information to other base transceiver stations of the wireless telecommunication system through an IP-based network that is internal to the wireless telecommunication system.
