LTE NCT METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR RADIO LINK MONITORING IN NEW CARRIER TYPE NCT IN A LONG TERM EVOLUTION LTE SYSTEM

摘要

certain aspects radio based on the channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) It provides a method and apparatus for performing link monitor (RLM). The RLM may be performed for a particular carrier, such as a new carrier type (NCT) and of the Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, in which, for example, reference signals used in the prior art for the RLM (e.g., LTE Rel-8/9/10 from a common reference signal (CRS), s) are not available at every sub-frame. Failure wireless links based on the RLM (RLF) may be declared. One exemplary method, in general, at least one of the RLM measurement of the first set to be used for channel estimation for performing a CSI-RS resource or of the second set to be used for interference estimation for performing the RLM measured CSI-RS resource determining a set, and the determined one or even a step of performing measurements on the basis of the RLM CSI-RS resource for many sets. Specific aspects are to provide a method and apparatus for performing radio resource management (RRM) based on the CSI-RS. ;
