RADIO LINK MONITORING IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method in user equipment, the method comprising:
- detecting an out-of-synchronization condition corresponding to a first control channel;
in response to the detecting the out-of synchronization condition;
monitoring of a second control channel, andtransmitting a distress signal to the network; and
receiving on the second control channel, in response to the transmitting, a response from the network to the reception of the distress signal, and based on the response from the network, at least one of;
scheduling communication on the second control channel, or reconfiguring the first control channel,wherein the first control channel is an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel and the second control channel is a Physical Downlink Control Channel.
