Abstract

See full text

Generally discussed herein are systems and methods that include Radio Link Monitoring (RLM) on an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (EPDCCH) transmission within a Heterogeneous Network (HetNet). RLM can be done without regard to a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) quality level. A User Equipment (UE) can be configured to receive the EPDCCH transmission from an Enhanced Node B (eNodeB). A quality level of the EPDCCH transmission can be estimated based upon a BLock Error Rate (BLER) of the EPDCCH transmission. If the quality level is lower than a first threshold value for a first specified number of consecutive periods, a timer can be started. In response to determining the quality level is greater than a second threshold for a second specified number of consecutive periods stop the timer before the timer expires. If the timer is stopped before the timer expires, declare a Radio Link Failure (RLF).
