Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a first network node. The first network node determines which UE category a UE belongs to. The UE category is M or non-BL in CE. The first network node provides UE category information about the determined UE category to a second network node.
Claims29
A method performed by a first network node, the method comprising:
- determining which User Equipment, UE, category a UE belongs to, wherein the UE category is M or non-Bandwidth reduced Low complexity, BL in Coverage Enhancement, CE;
- and
- providing UE category information about the determined UE category to a second network node.
A first network node, adapted to:
- determine which User Equipment, UE, category a UE belongs to, wherein the UE category is M or non-Bandwidth reduced Low complexity, BL in Coverage Enhancement, CE;
- and to
- provide UE category information about the determined UE category to a second network node.
A method performed by a second network node, the method comprising:
- obtaining, from the first network node, User Equipment, UE, category information about which UE category a UE belongs to, wherein the UE category is M or non-Bandwidth reduced Low complexity, BL in Coverage Enhancement, CE;
- and
- providing the UE category information to a third network node.
A second network node adapted to:
- obtain, from the first network node, User Equipment, UE, category information about which UE category a UE belongs to, wherein the UE category is M or non-Bandwidth reduced Low complexity, BL in Coverage Enhancement, CE;
- and to
- provide the UE category information to a third network node.
