Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for permitting higher transmit power at a mobile device. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed, comprising: receiving, at a base station, an emergency request from a mobile device; sending, from the base station to a neighboring base station, a high power reservation message to reserve one or more radio resource blocks at the neighboring base station for non-use; and sending, from the base station to the mobile device, a resource allocation including the one or more radio resource blocks and a power control message requesting high transmit power.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving, at a base station, an emergency request from a mobile device;
- coordinating a resource allocation with a self-organizing network (SON) module located at a coordinating node, the coordinating node being an X2 aggregation point;
- sending, from the base station to a neighboring base station via the coordinating node, a high power reservation message to reserve one or more radio resource blocks at the neighboring base station for non-use;
- and sending, from the base station to the mobile device, a resource allocation including the one or more radio resource blocks and a power control message requesting high transmit power.
A base station, comprising:
- a processing module for providing wireless communications to mobile users;
- a core network interface coupled to the processing module and in communication with a core network;
- and an access interface coupled to the processing module, in communication with one or more mobile devices, and capable of being used for emergency communications by the one or more mobile devices;
- wherein the processing module is configured to:
- receive, at the base station, an emergency request from a mobile device;
- coordinate a resource allocation with a self-organizing network (SON) module located at a coordinating node, the coordinating node being an X2 aggregation point;
- send, from the base station to a neighboring base station via the coordinating node, a high power reservation message to reserve one or more radio resource blocks at the neighboring base station for non-use;
- and send, from the base station to the mobile device, a resource allocation including the one or more radio resource blocks and a power control message requesting high transmit power.
