Abstract
A method for performing radio usage measurements to support radio link operations and/or load balancing may be performed at an evolved Node B (eNB). The method may include determining a first radio usage parameter. The first radio usage parameter may be a measurement of radio usage between an eNB and at least one wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU). The method may further include determining a second radio usage parameter. The second radio usage parameter may be a measurement of radio usage between the eNB and at least one relay node (RN) served by the eNB. The method may further include utilizing at least one of the first radio usage parameter or the second radio usage parameter to evaluate at least one of evolved universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) radio link operations, radio resource management (RRM), network operations and maintenance (OAM), and self-organizing networks (SON) functions or functionalities.

Claim
A method for handing over a relay node (RN) from a source evolved Node B (eNB) to a target eNB, the method comprising:
the source eNB determining to handover the RN to the target eNB;
the source eNB sending a handover command to the RN, the handover command indicating that the RN is to handover from the source eNB to the target eNB; and
the source eNB sending bearer context information to the target eNB, wherein the bearer context information comprises information that allows the target eNB to accept the RN while at least one wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) connected to the RN remains in the connected state throughout the handover.
2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
the source eNB sending a handover request message to the target eNB; and
the source eNB receiving a handover acceptance message from the target eNB, wherein the handover acceptance message includes a handover parameter, wherein the handover parameter is included in the handover command.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein the handover parameter comprises at least one of a Un subframe configuration or synchronization and timing information.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein determining to handover the RN is based on at least one of measurements performed by the source eNB or message received from a mobility management entity (MME).
5. The method of claim 1, further comprising the source eNB receiving a donor eNB (DeNB) list for the RN and selecting the target eNB based on the DeNB list.
6. The method of claim 1, wherein the handover command comprises a dedicated Random Access Channel Preamble for the RN.
7. A relay node comprising:
a first physical layer entity configured to communicate with one or more wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) over a Uu interface;
a second physical layer entity configured to communicate with one or more evolved Node B (eNBs) over a Un interface; and
a processor configured to:
perform one or more Layer 2 (L2) measurements for one or more of the Un interface or the Uu interface,
send the one more L2 measurements to a source donor eNB (DeNB),
receive an RRCRNReconfiguration message from the source DeNB, the RRCRNReconfiguration message comprising an indication that the relay node is to handover to a target DeNB and Un interface configuration information for communicating with the target DeNB, and
perform a handover from the source DeNB to the target DeNB while at least one WTRU connected to the relay node via the Uu interface remains in a connected state during the handover.
8. The relay node of claim 7, wherein the RRCRNReconfiguration message further comprises an indication that the relay node is to perform a tracking area update procedure (TAU) upon handing over to the target DeNB.
9. The relay node of claim 8, wherein the relay node being handed over to the target DeNB results in the relay node entering a new tracking area that is associated with a different mobility management entity (MME) than a MME that served the relay node when the relay node was connected to the source DeNB.
10. The relay node of claim 7, wherein each WTRU that was connected to the relay node prior to the handover remains connected to the relay node after the handover.
11. The relay node of claim 7, wherein a subset of WTRUs that were connected to the relay node prior to the handover remain connected to the relay node after the handover.
12. The relay node of claim 11, wherein the subset of WTRUs share a common quality of service (QoS) characteristic.
13. The relay node of claim 11, wherein the processor is further configured to handover at least a first WTRU that was connected to the relay node to the source DeNB prior to completing the handover to the target DeNB.
14. The relay node of claim 13, wherein at least the first WTRU was rejected by the target DeNB.
15. The relay node of claim 7, wherein the processor is further configured to perform load balancing for WTRUs connected to the relay node based on receiving a command from one or more of the source DeNB, the target DeNB, or a mobility management entity.
16. The relay node of claim 7, wherein during a random access channel (RACH) procedure for the handover, the processor is configured to utilize a dedicated random access preamble associated with a Un subframe configuration to be utilized with the target DeNB.
17. The relay node of claim 16, wherein the dedicated random access preamble is indicated by the RRCRNReconfiguration message.
18. A method implemented by a relay node (RN), the method comprising:
the RN communicating with one or more wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) over a Uu interface;
the RN communicating with one or more evolved Node B (eNBs) over a Un interface;
the RN performing one or more Layer 2 (L2) measurements for one or more of the Un interface or the Uu interface;
the RN sending the one more L2 measurements to a source donor eNB (DeNB);
the RN receiving an RRCRNReconfiguration message from the source DeNB, the RRCRNReconfiguration message comprising an indication that the relay node is to handover to a target DeNB and Un interface configuration information for communicating with the target DeNB; and
the RN performing a handover from the source DeNB to the target DeNB while at least one WTRU connected to the relay node via the Uu interface remains in a connected state during the handover.
19. The method of claim 18, wherein further comprising the RN handing over, to the source DeNB, at least a first WTRU that was connected to the RN prior to completing the handover to the target DeNB.
20. The method of claim 19, wherein at least the first WTRU was rejected by the target DeNB.
