Abstract:
Transmit power for an access point is controlled based on measurement reports received by the access point from one or more access terminals that are not currently being served by the access point. In some aspects, transmit power is controlled based on the number of received messages that correspond to a particular event. In some aspects, transmit power is controlled based on the contents of the received messages. For example, the access point may use signal strength information included in the messages to determine a level of transmit power that mitigates interference at a defined subset of reporting access terminals.
Abstract:
A cell reselection parameter is transmitted on one carrier frequency for a defined period of time to cause access terminals operating on that carrier frequency to more aggressively search for access points on at least one other carrier frequency. For example, a femto cell operating on one carrier frequency may transmit a broadcast channel including a cell reselection parameter such as Sintersearch on another carrier frequency that is used by a macro cell. Here, the value of the cell reselection parameter (e.g., Sintersearch) is chosen so that the access terminals will more aggressively conduct inter-frequency searches. In addition, the cell reselection parameter is transmitted for a period of time that ensures that a nearby access terminal will receive the parameter during its wakeup interval.
Abstract:
Systems, devices, and methods for adjusting a transmission power at a femto node are described herein. According to the systems, devices, and methods herein, a measurement of a signal transmitted from a transmitting node may be communicated to the femto node, for example from a user equipment or a neighboring femto node, for use in adjusting the power. The transmitting node may comprise the femto node, a macro node, or a neighboring femto node. In addition, statistics regarding such measurements may be communicated to the femto node for use in adjusting the power. The femto node may also adjust the power based on unsuccessful registration attempts or interference communications received at the femto node.

Abstract:
Providing for improved wireless communications for user equipment (UE) in a semi-active state is described herein. By way of example, a base station can employ particular wireless channel resources, monitored by a UE in a CELL_FACH state for instance, to trigger channel feedback information from the UE. The trigger can comprise an explicit order instructing the UE to provide data in response, or can include a portion of downlink traffic targeting the UE, where the UE is configured to respond in a suitable manner to receipt of traffic data. The UE can maintain the CELL_FACH state in receiving to and responding to the trigger, and can further receive subsequent traffic data in such state. Accordingly, the subject disclosure provides for improved efficiency and reliability in semi-active state wireless communications.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for implicitly determining a receive beam for a UE to use for received signal strength indicator (RS SI) measurement. For example, the UE may perform RSSI measurement with a receive beam implicitly determined at the UE and report the RSSI to a network entity.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a user equipment (UE) to provide listen before talk (LBT) assistance to a transmitting device. The UE may receive a pre-grant (PG) indicating a plurality of beams and a transmission resource. The UE may performing a LBT procedure on each beam of the indicated plurality of beams. The UE may transmit an acknowledgment to the pre-grant (APG) including a LBT report for the indicated plurality of beams on the transmission resource, the LBT report indicating a result of the LBT procedure for each beam of the indicated plurality of beams.
Abstract:
A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) determines a downlink/uplink (DL/UL) switching capability of the UE, and reports the DL/UL switching capability to a network. The DL/UL switching capability may indicate a quantity of DL/UL switch points, N, supported by the UE, and a time duration to which the quantity of DL/UL switch points is applied. The DL/UL switching capability may indicate a minimum link duration for which the UE should maintain a link direction after a previous DL/UL switch operation and before a next DL/UL switch operation. The DL/UL switching capability may include a DL/UL switching delay indicating a time specified for the UE to complete a DL/UL switching operation. The DL/UL switching capability may be based on a reference subcarrier spacing (SCS).
Abstract:
A configuration to configure an apparatus to perform a clear channel assessment based on one or more transmission power levels. The apparatus measures at least one energy sensing measurement over an operating channel. The apparatus determines whether the operating channel is available for transmission based on a threshold determination for one or more transmission power levels. The apparatus transmitting on the operating channel upon the determination that the operating channel is available for transmission for the one or more transmission power levels, wherein the one or more transmission power levels are less than the threshold determination.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication including an apparatus, e.g., a UE and/or a base station. In one aspect, the apparatus may determine a CCA threshold corresponding to at least one bandwidth, the at least one bandwidth being associated with a COT sharing procedure. The apparatus may also adjust the CCA threshold corresponding to the at least one bandwidth based on at least one of one or more sensing bandwidths or one or more granted resources for the COT sharing procedure. Additionally, the apparatus may signal the adjusted CCA threshold corresponding to the at least one bandwidth to at least one of a node or a base station.
