Abstract
Techniques for supporting communication by base stations are disclosed. In an aspect of the present disclosure, for network-based alarming, a base station may notify a designated user equipment (UE) whenever certain trigger events occurred at the base station. The base station may send notification messages for detected trigger events to the UE for timely intervention. In another aspect of the present disclosure, for network-based reconfiguration, a base station for a small cell may be reconfigured by a network server based on performance metrics for base stations in a wireless system. The reconfiguration may improve the performance of the base station and possibly other base stations in the wireless system.
Claims43
A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- detecting, at a base station, a trigger event related to a performance or status problem at the base station;
- and
- sending, by the base station to a user equipment (UE) that belongs to a manager user designated to maintain the base station, a notification comprising pertinent information to inform the manager user about the detected trigger event related to the performance or status problem at the base station, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is sent to the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to detect, at a base station, a trigger event related to a performance or status problem at the base station, and
- a transmitter configured to send, by the base station to a user equipment (UE) that belongs to a manager user designated to maintain the base station, a notification comprising pertinent information to inform the manager user about the detected trigger event related to the performance or status problem at the base station, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is sent to the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- means for detecting, at a base station, a trigger event related to a performance or status problem at the base station;
- and
- means for sending, by the base station to a user equipment (UE) that belongs to a manager user designated to maintain the base station, a notification comprising pertinent information to inform the manager user about the detected trigger event related to the performance or status problem at the base station, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is sent to the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising code for causing at least one processor to:
- detect, at a base station, a trigger event related to a performance or status problem at the base station;
- and
- send, by the base station to a user equipment (UE) that belongs to a manager user designated to maintain the base station, a notification comprising pertinent information to inform the manager user about the detected trigger event related to the performance or status problem at the base station, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is sent to the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.
A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- receiving, at a user equipment (UE) that belongs to a manager user designated to maintain a base station, a notification comprising pertinent information to inform the manager user about a trigger event detected at the base station, the trigger event related to a performance or status problem at the base station;
- and
- alerting the manager user of the notification received at the UE, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is received at the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.

- and
- means for alerting the manager user of the notification received at the UE, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is received at the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising code for causing at least one processor to:
- receive, at a user equipment (UE) that belongs to a manager user designated to maintain a base station, a notification comprising pertinent information to inform the manager user about a trigger event detected at the base station, the trigger event related to a performance or status problem at the base station;
- and
- alert the manager user of the notification received at the UE, wherein the notification further indicates a suggested corrective action for the manager user to perform to address the performance or status problem at the base station, and wherein the notification is received at the UE during an interactive intervention process enabling the manager user to choose the suggested corrective action among one or more intervention options that are available to address the performance or status problem at the base station.
