发明名称 Systems and methods for determining an access node for a wireless device
摘要 Systems and methods are described for determining an access node for a wireless device. An increased signal level for a first signal and an adjustment value based on the increased signal level may be determined. An indication of the adjustment value and the first signal may be transmitted from a first access node. A wireless device in communication with the first access node may transmit signal information comprising a first signal level associated with the first access node and a second signal level associated with a second access node, where the signal information is transmitted in response to a reporting event triggered at the wireless device based on the adjustment value and at least one of a received signal level for the first signal and a received signal level for the second signal. Based on the signal information, one of the first access node and the second access node may be selected for communication with the wireless device. The wireless device may be instructed to communicate with the selected access node.

主权项 1. A method for determining an access node for a wireless device, the method comprising: determining, at a first access node or a controller node, an increased signal level to transmit a first signal from the first access node; determining, at the first access node or the controller node, an adjustment value based on the increased signal level; transmitting from the first access node an indication of the adjustment value and the first signal comprising the increased signal level, wherein the first signal comprises a reference signal; receiving, from a wireless device in communication with the first access node, signal information comprising a determined first signal level associated with the first access node and a determined second signal level associated with a second access node, wherein the signal information is transmitted from the wireless device in response to a reporting event that is triggered at the wireless device based on the adjustment value and at least one of a received signal level for the first signal and a received signal level for the second signal; selecting, based on the signal information, one of the first access node and the second access node for communication with the wireless device; and instructing the wireless device to communicate with the selected access node.
