Abstract
A method for operating a transceiver circuit includes receiving an information indicating at least one of a transmission and a reception in a guard band region of a frequency band supported by a communications network and allocating at least a part of the guard band region of the supported frequency band of the communications network for at least one of a transmission and a reception of at least one physical channel.
Claims23
A method for operating a transceiver circuit, comprising:
- receiving an information indicating at least one of a transmission and a reception in a guard band region of a frequency band supported by a communications network, wherein the information indicating the at least one of a transmission and a reception in the guard band region corresponds to a system information block;
- allocating at least a part of the guard band region of the supported frequency band of the communications network for at least one of a transmission and a reception of at least one physical channel;
- and
- restricting a transmission power for the transmission of the at least one physical channel according to a maximum allowed transmission power provided by the system information block.
A method for operating a transceiver circuit, comprising:
- receiving a system information block indicating at least one of a transmission and a reception in a guard band region of a frequency band supported by a radio communications network;
- allocating a plurality of physical resource blocks from the guard band region of the supported frequency band of the radio communications network for at least one of a transmission and a reception of at least one physical channel, wherein a part of the guard band region corresponds to at least one physical resource block;
- performing at least one of a transmission and a reception of the at least one physical channel in the guard band region by using the allocated physical resource blocks;
- and
- applying frequency-hopping over the at least one allocated physical resource blocks in the guard band region.
A method for overload protection in a radio communications network, comprising:
- dynamically switching at least one of a data transmission and a data reception of a transceiver circuit from a supported frequency band of the radio communications network to exclusively an allocated guard band region of the supported frequency band depending on an overload indicator;
- and
- switching the at least one of a transmission and a reception back to sub-carriers carrying the system information block when at least one of the transmission and the reception in the guard band region is interrupted.
A transceiver circuit configured to receive an information indicating at least one of a transmission and a reception in a guard band region of a frequency band supported by a communications network, the transceiver circuit comprising:
- a first circuitry configured to allocate at least a part of the guard band region of the supported frequency band of the communications network for at least one of a transmission and a reception of at least one physical channel, wherein the part of the guard band region corresponds to at least one physical resource block;
- and
- a second circuitry configured to apply frequency-hopping over the at least one allocated physical resource blocks in the guard band region.
A transceiver circuit, comprising:
- a first circuitry configured to transmit a system information block indicating at least one of a transmission and a reception in a guard band region of a frequency band supported by a communications network;
- and
- a second circuitry configured to receive the system information block and restrict a transmission power for transmission of at least one physical channel according to a maximum allowed transmission power provided by the system information block.
