Cell selection based on favorable ULDL configuration in LTE/TDD networks

摘要

Cell selection procedures performed in a wireless network are disclosed that include determining a uplink/downlink (ULDL) preference of a User Equipment (UE) in communication with a first evolved Node B (eNB) having a first ULDL configuration and a second eNB having a second ULDL configuration. The UE compares the first and second ULDL configurations to the ULDL preference. The UE selects the first eNB based on the first ULDL configuration matching the ULDL preference. In alternative aspects, a first eNB having a first ULDL configuration and in communication with a UE receives the ULDL preference of the UE. The first eNB compares the first ULDL configuration and a second ULDL configuration of a second eNB in communication with the UE to the ULDL preference. The first eNB selects the second eNB based on the second ULDL configuration matching the ULDL preference.

1. A method for performing cell selection in a wireless network, the method comprising:
determining, by a User Equipment (UE) in communication with a first evolved Node B (eNB) having a first uplink/downlink (ULDL) configuration and a second eNB having a second ULDL configuration, a ULDL preference of the UE; comparing, by the UE, the first ULDL configuration and the second ULDL configuration to the ULDL preference of the UE; and selecting, by the UE, the first eNB based at least in part on the comparing resulting in the first ULDL configuration matching the ULDL preference.
