Abstract
In an embodiment, a radio communication device is provided. The radio communication device may include a radio communication device control message generation circuit configured to generate a radio communication device control message including allocation information to control a radio resource allocation for radio communication devices of at least two groups of radio communication devices, the radio resource allocation being provided by another radio communication device.
Claims24
A radio communication device, comprising:
- a radio communication device control message generation hardware circuit configured to generate a radio communication device control message that is to indicate, to a home base station adapted to provide a cell, a first amount of radio resources associated with the cell to be allocated to a Closed Subscriber Group and a second amount of radio resources associated with the cell to be allocated to a Public Subscriber Group, wherein the first amount of radio resources is only available to one or more radio communication terminal devices associated with the Closed Subscriber Group and usage of radio resources associated with the cell by radio communication terminal devices associated with the Public Subscriber Group cannot exceed the second amount.
A home base station to provide a cell, comprising:
- at least one controller configured to control resource allocations for radio communication devices of at least two groups of radio communication devices in accordance with a received home base station control message generated from a radio communication device, the home base station control message to indicate a first amount of radio resources associated with the cell to be allocated to a Closed Subscriber Group and a second amount of radio resources associated with the cell to be allocated to a Public Subscriber Group, wherein the first amount of radio resources is only available to one or more radio communication terminal devices associated with the Closed Subscriber Group and usage of radio resources associated with the cell by radio communication terminal devices associated with the Public Subscriber Group cannot exceed the second amount.
A radio communication device, comprising:
- a home base station control message generation hardware circuit configured to generate a home base station control message generated from the radio communication device comprising information to control resources selected from a group of resources consisting of:
- radio resources, associated with a cell to be provided by a home base station, to be allocated at least between a Closed Subscriber Group and a Public Subscriber Group, wherein a first amount of radio resources is only available to one or more radio communication terminal devices associated with the Closed Subscriber Group such that radio communication terminal devices associated with the Public Subscriber Group cannot use the first amount of radio resources associated with the cell,
- resources of a broadband connection between a home base station and an operator's core network for at least two types of devices;
- and
- resources of a broadband connection between a home base station and an operator's core network for at least three types of traffic,
- the radio communication device being a member of the Closed Subscriber Group.
3 more elements
A home base station, comprising:
- a controller configured to control resources for communication devices of different groups of communication devices in accordance with a received home base station control message generated from a radio communication device comprising information to control resources selected from a group of resources consisting of:
- radio resources, associated with a cell to be provided by the home base station, to be allocated at least between a Closed Subscriber Group and a Public Subscriber Group, wherein a first amount of radio resources is only available to one or more radio communication terminal devices associated with the Closed Subscriber Group such that radio communication terminal devices associated with the Public Subscriber Group cannot use the first amount of radio resources associated with the cell,
- resources of a broadband connection between a home base station and an operator's core network,
- the radio communication device being a member of the Closed Subscriber Group.
1 more element
A method for controlling a radio resource allocation, the method comprising:
- receiving a home base station control message comprising allocation information to control resource allocations from a home base station adapted to provide a cell;
- and
- controlling resources, associated with the cell, to be allocated at least between a Closed Subscriber Group and a Public Subscriber Group, wherein a first amount of radio resources is only available to one or more radio communication terminal devices associated with the Closed Subscriber Group such that radio communication terminal devices associated with the Public Subscriber Group cannot use the first amount of radio resources associated with the cell.
