5) Information that the UE is capable of performing any of the above tasks only in a certain RRC activity state (e.g., in connected state, etc.); and/or
6) Information that the UE is capable of performing any of the above tasks related to different types of pre-defined indicators and is capable of adapting operation depending upon the type of indicator received from the network node.
The acquired capability information may be used by the receiving network node to perform one or more radio operation tasks or radio resource management actions. Examples of radio operation tasks may include:
-
- 1) Deciding whether to configure the UE with an indicator related to HSVN operation to enable the UE to adapt its radio parameters, etc.; and/or
- 2) Deciding whether to transmit one (general indicator) or a specific indicator to enable the UE to adapt its radio parameters used to receive signals.
The UE may send the capability information to the network node proactively or in response to an explicit request received from the network node.
According to some embodiments of inventive concepts, a network node may be dedicated to providing coverage to user equipment nodes UEs in high speed vehicles, and the network node may provide an indication that it is dedicated to this purpose. A user equipment node UE may act on this indication to adapt/optimize its operation to high speed operation.
