Abstract
A method for controlling radio transmission, carried out in a wireless terminal (10), comprising obtaining (435), from a wireless network (100,120), a transmission grant (430) which gives the wireless terminal permission to transmit a radio signal, wherein said transmission grant is indicative of a spatial limitation associated with the permission to transmit; and transmitting (440) the radio signal in accordance with said spatial limitation.
Claims17
A method for controlling radio transmission, carried out in a wireless terminal, comprising:
- obtaining, from a wireless network, a transmission grant which gives the wireless terminal permission to transmit a radio signal, wherein said transmission grant is indicative of a spatial limitation associated with the permission to transmit;
- and
- transmitting the radio signal in accordance with said spatial limitation,
- wherein said spatial limitation indicates a disallowed spatial range of transmission from the wireless terminal, the disallowed spatial range of transmission being towards a base station transmission point.
A wireless terminal configured to communicate with a wireless network, comprising:
- a radio transceiver;
- and
- logic configured to control the radio transceiver to obtain a transmission grant from a wireless network, wherein said transmission grant is indicative of a spatial limitation associated with a permission to transmit a radio signal;
- and transmit the radio signal in accordance with said spatial limitation,
- wherein said spatial limitation indicates a disallowed spatial range of transmission from the wireless terminal, the disallowed spatial range of transmission being towards a base station transmission point.
A method carried out in wireless network for configuring a wireless terminal for radio transmission, comprising:
- transmitting, to the wireless terminal, a transmission grant, wherein said transmission grant is indicative of a spatial limitation associated with a permission for the wireless terminal to transmit a radio signal,
- wherein said spatial limitation indicates a disallowed spatial range of transmission from the wireless terminal, the disallowed spatial range of transmission being towards a base station transmission point.
