METHODS AND ARRANGEMENTS IN A TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

There is provided a method in a cellular telecommunications network, the cellular telecommunications network comprising at least a first cell and a second cell. The method comprises the steps of transmitting first periodic physical signals, usable by a device to determine its location, to the first cell; and transmitting second periodic physical signals, usable by a device to determine its location, to the second cell. The second periodic physical signals are synchronized with the first periodic physical signals and have a timing offset, such that the first periodic physical signals and the second periodic physical signals are not transmitted simultaneously. The method is characterized in that transmission of data or control signals to the first cell is inhibited when the second periodic physical signals are transmitted to the second cell.

1. A method in a cellular telecommunications network, the cellular telecommunications network comprising at least a first cell and a second cell, the method comprising:
transmitting first periodic physical signals, usable by a device to determine its location, to the first cell; and transmitting second periodic physical signals, usable by a device to determine its location, to the second cell, said second periodic physical signals being synchronized with said first periodic physical signals and having a timing offset, such that said first periodic physical signals and said second periodic physical signals are not transmitted simultaneously, characterized in that transmission of data or control signals to the first cell is inhibited when said second periodic physical signals are transmitted to the second cell.
