Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose techniques and apparatus for pre-uplink synchronization in Time Division Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) handover.
Abstract:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide a paging schedule that may allow a WiMAX mobile device to return to a low power state prior to the end of a listening interval, thereby reducing power consumption. For certain embodiments, the paging schedule may be controlled by a base station using standardized paging messages, with paging messages targeting particular MSs in a group presented in an organized manner within a listening interval. An MS aware of this schedule may, thus, promptly return to a low power state prior to the end of a listening interval if it does not detect a paging message at its expected time within the listening interval.
Abstract:
A method for allocating polling bandwidth may include generating polling tokens corresponding to connections maintained by a base station. The polling tokens may be generated at configurable time intervals. The method may also include assigning priorities to the polling tokens. The priority of a polling token may depend on a scheduling type of a corresponding connection. The method may also include allocating polling bandwidth to the connections that correspond to the highest priority polling tokens when uplink bandwidth is available to allocate for polling.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication manages the positioning of uplink pilot channel transmissions. A random access request is transmitted at a first location indicated in a circuit switched fall back (CSFB) redirection message. The random access request is then retransmitted at a second location when a response is not received for the random access request transmitted at the first location.
Abstract:
Idle power consumption of a user equipment (UE) is affected by an adaptive cell reselection process to prevent ping-pong cell reselection. The adaptive cell reselection includes adapting triggering threshold values for reselection based on signal strengths. The triggering threshold value may be increased for cell reselection while the UE receives a good signal from a serving cell. When the serving cell signal is poor, the cell reselection triggering threshold value is decreased to allow for fast cell reselection.
Abstract:
A method of buffer status reporting for multiple preserved data protocol (PDP) contexts includes communicating with a base station. A service request is sent to the base station, the service request requesting a set of radio access bearers (RABs) for a set of PDP contexts. The set of preserved PDP contexts includes one or more PDP contexts that have no uplink data ready to transmit on a high speed shared data channel. The set of preserved PDP contexts also includes one or more PDP contexts that have uplink data ready to transmit on the high speed shared data channel.
Abstract:
Wireless communication in a radio access network may be implemented in a manner where a user equipment (UE) with multiple Universal Subscriber Identity Modules (USIMs) selects a system based on the system's preference status among the USIMs of the UE. A system that is home to all the UE's USIMs is selected over one that is home to some USIMs but roaming for others. A system that is home to some USIMs but not provisioned for other USIMs is selected over one that is roaming to all USIMs. A system that is roaming to all USIMs is selected over one that is roaming to some USIMs but not provisioned for other USIMs. Ranking of systems may be done independently by USIM or may be done using a combined ranking method that considers other USIMs prior to an individual USIM indicating a system priority. Manual system selection may also be used.
Abstract:
Wireless communication in a multicarrier radio access network, such as a (TD-SCDMA) network, may be implemented where a user equipment (UE) maintains communication over various carrier frequencies in the multicarrier network. The UE will receive a downlink pilot channel transmitted on every subframe on a primary carrier frequency. The UE will also receive a downlink pilot channel transmitted on less than every subframe on a secondary carrier frequency The downlink pilot channel is sent in subframes on the secondary carrier frequencies using a particular period and offset to reduce or minimize interference.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for processing a downlink (DL) subframe of an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) or an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) frame are provided. By arranging the DL-MAP information elements (IEs) in a DL-MAP of the DL subframe to correspond chronologically to the arrangement of their associated data bursts in the OFDM or OFDMA frame at a base station (BS), a user terminal receiving that frame may be able to start decoding the data bursts in the DL subframe without having to wait until all of the DL-MAP IEs have been parsed and decoded. In this manner, the user terminal may decode the data bursts while simultaneously parsing a remaining portion of the DL-MAP, and the time for processing the entire frame may be reduced, thereby increasing the processing speed.
