Method and apparatus to control HSDPA activation/de-activation
First Claim
1. A method, at a network node, for High Speed Downlink Packet Access (“
- HSDPA”
) de-activation, comprising;
determining whether a number of serving HSDPA cell changes of a user equipment (“
UE”
) communicating with the network node exceeds a threshold within a first time period;
deactivating HSDPA for the UE if the threshold is exceeded within the first time period, wherein deactivating HSDPA comprises deallocating HSDPA resources from the UE such that the UE no longer has HSDPA resources assigned thereto; and
after a second time period, activating HSDPA for the UE.

Abstract
A method and a user equipment (“UE”), for High Speed Downlink Packet Access (“HSDPA”) de-activation, the method determining whether a number of serving HSDPA cell changes of the UE exceeds a threshold within a predetermined time period; and; sending a transition indication from the UE to a network node to deactivate HSDPA if the threshold is exceeded for within the predetermined time period. Also, a method and a network node, for High Speed Downlink Packet Access de-activation, the method determining whether a number of serving HSDPA cell changes of a user equipment communicating with the network node exceeds a threshold within a predetermined time period; and; deactivating HSDPA for the UE if the threshold is exceeded within the predetermined time period.

8. A network element adapted for High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) activation and de-activation, comprising:
-
a processor; and a communication subsystem; wherein the processor and the communication subsystem cooperate to; determine whether a number of serving HSDPA cell changes of a user equipment (“
UE”
) communicating with the network node exceeds a threshold within a first time period; and
;deactivate HSDPA for the UE if the threshold is exceeded within the first time period, wherein deactivating HSDPA comprises deallocating HSDPA resources from the UE such that the UE no longer has HSDPA resources assigned thereto; and after a second time period, activate HSDPA for the UE. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
