Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention proposes a method, including in a communication network area constituted by a plurality of transmission points configured for coordinated transmissions to at least one target, each transmission point being identified by an individual identifier, each transmission point being configured to transmit common reference signals on common channels and dedicated reference signals on dedicated channels to said at least one target device, assigning the respective individual identifier of each transmission point to the common reference signals on the common channels of the respective transmission point, and allocating, to the dedicated reference signals on the dedicated channels of respective plural transmission points, an identifier unrelated to the individual identifiers. Also, corresponding devices are addressed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: assigning, at a transmission point, an individual identifier of the transmission point to common reference signals on common channels of the transmission point, wherein the transmission point is one of two or more transmission points of a communication network, and the two or more transmission points being configured for cooperative transmission as part of a cooperation area to the at least one target device; dynamically allocat…
