发明名称 Relay node operable with different spatial characteristic antenna patterns
摘要 It is described a relay node for providing wireless access for a user equipment to a telecommunication network. The relay node includes an antenna, which is adapted to operate with different spatial characteristic antenna patterns, and a transceiver unit, which is coupled to the antenna and which is adapted to activate at least one of the different spatial characteristic antenna patterns. It is further described a corresponding method for providing wireless access for a user equipment to a telecommunication network via a relay node.

主权项 1. A relay node for providing wireless access for a at least one user equipment to a telecommunication network, the relay node comprising: an antenna, that is adapted to operate with different spatial characteristic antenna patterns; and a transceiver unit, that is coupled to the antenna and is adapted to activate at least one of the different spatial characteristic antenna patterns, wherein the antenna comprises at least two antenna elements and the different spatial characteristic antenna patterns are achieved by varying a phase shift between the at least two antenna elements, and wherein the phase shift is varied when the relay node is transmitting a radio signal to at least one of a base station and the at least one user equipment and when the relay node is receiving a radio signal from at least one of the base station and the at least one user equipment, and wherein the transceiver unit is adapted for controlling the different spatial characteristic antenna patterns, wherein during a first time frame that is used for radio communications between the relay node and its serving base station a first spatial characteristic antenna pattern is activated andduring a second time frame that is used for radio communications between the relay node and the at least one user equipment served by the relay node and/or between the relay node and a another base station a second spatial characteristic antenna pattern is activated.
