Abstract  Abstract

Generally discussed herein are systems and apparatuses that can implement Physical Cell Identity assignments that reduce collision or confusion of small cell identities at User Equipment and techniques for using the same. According to an example apparatus a device can be configured to estimate a location of the small cell eNodeB based on at least one of Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates of the location of the small cell eNodeB and an RSRP measured at the small cell eNodeB determine if the location of the small cell eNodeB is within a first region or a second region of a large cell transmission area wherein the first and second regions do not overlap and in response to determining which region the small cell eNodeB is deployed in assign a PCI code from a respective group of available PCI codes to the small cell eNodeB.
