    Abstract: A scheme is provided for conserving power in client terminals and/or reducing latency in wireless systems by using a proxy device. The client terminal may have a primary communication interface for communications with an access node and a secondary communication interface to communicate with the proxy device. The client terminal may indicate to the access node a short cycle rate for monitoring its signaling/control channel(s). The client terminal may the power off its primary communication interface without informing the access node. Prior to powering off its primary communication interface the client terminal may assign the proxy device to act as its proxy and monitor the signaling/control channel with the access node. The proxy device monitors the signaling/control channel(s) according to the indicated short cycle rate. Upon detection of a message for the client terminal the proxy device forwards the message to the client terminal via a secondary communication interface.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices for supporting voice communications in a wireless communications system are provided. Some embodiments utilize multiple code channels to transmit the voice frames. These embodiments include parallel multi code embodiments offset multi code embodiments and multi user multi code embodiments. Some embodiments utilize flexible carrier bandwidths systems that may utilize portions of spectrum that may not be big enough to fit a normal bandwidth waveform. Some embodiments transmit and receive a subset of subframes of voice frames received over flexible bandwidth code channels. In some embodiments a subset of subframes based on a flexible bandwidth scaling factor of one or more flexible bandwidth code channels is transmitted. The receiver may decode the voice frame based on the received subset of subframes. An outer loop power control set point may be adjusted to provide a predetermined frame error rate based on the number of transmitted subframes.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes various techniques to provide network access to a user equipment by using network infrastructure and/or wireless spectrum from an asset operator. In an aspect, a network device associated with the asset operator may receive a request for wireless wide area network (WWAN) access for a UE. The network device may identify the UE as a subscriber of an operator based at least in part on the request, where the operator is different from the asset operator, and where the network device is configured to provide WWAN access to subscribers of the operator via a core network associated with the operator based at least in part on a services agreement between the operator and the asset operator. The network device may then provide WWAN access to the UE in response to identifying that the UE is a subscriber of the operator.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices for utilizing flexible bandwidth carriers for small cells are provided. Bandwidth scaling factor(s) for a small cell may be determined. A flexible bandwidth carrier may be generated for the small cell utilizing the bandwidth scaling factor. Some embodiments provide assistance with active hand in due to more available PN offsets in the flexible bandwidth domain. Some embodiments enhance small cell discovery with high bandwidth scaling factor beacon like small cells with little more power than that corresponding to the same power spectral density for normal bandwidth small cell. Some embodiments reduce the interference caused by small cell to macrocell users using an adaptive bandwidth scaling factor for small cells based on number of users supported and their traffic demand to control the extent of overlap the macrocell has with small cell and the interference to macrocell mobiles. Some embodiments utilize self configuration for small cells utilizing flexible bandwidth channels.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices for mobility management for wireless communications systems that utilize a flexible bandwidth carrier are provided. Some embodiments include determining and transmitting assistance information to one or more user equipment (UEs) to facilitate mobility management with respect to the flexible bandwidth carrier. Some embodiments include signaling flexible bandwidth carrier information to UEs including but not limited to: UE centric approaches network centric approaches network centric approaches with PLMN SIB creation approaches and/or application layer approaches. A flexible bandwidth carrier may involve a wireless communications system that may utilize portions of spectrum that may not fit a normal bandwidth. A flexible bandwidth carrier may be generated with respect to a normal bandwidth carrier through dilating or scaling down the time or the chip rate of the flexible bandwidth carrier with respect to the normal bandwidth carrier. Some embodiments may expand a bandwidth for a flexible bandwidth carrier.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices are disclosed for providing services such as voice services within flexible bandwidth systems. In general the scaling of one or more aspects of a flexible bandwidth system may be compensated for through altering one or more aspects within a code domain. The tools and techniques may include scaling spreading factors (with rate matching tuning in some embodiments) multi code transmission code rate increases AMR codec rate adjustments and/or higher order modulation. Subframe decoding approaches for the reception scheme may also be utilized. These tools and techniques can be flexibly implemented on the mobile device and/or base station side. Some embodiments may also minimize the latency introduced by the transmission and/or reception process. Flexible bandwidths systems may utilize portions of spectrum that may be too big or too small to fit a normal bandwidth waveform.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices are provided for dynamically adapting the bandwidth of flexible bandwidth carriers. Adapting the bandwidth of a flexible bandwidth carrier may be achieved through changing the scale factor of the flexible bandwidth signal. Information such as traffic patterns interference measurements etc. may be utilized to determine the adapted scaling factors. In macrocellular deployments for example dynamically adjusting the bandwidth of a flexible bandwidth system may be utilized in order to increase network capacity mitigate interference caused to other carriers avoid adjacent carrier interference and/or save energy on the network. Traffic pattern and other information may also be utilized to dynamically adjust uplink and downlink bandwidths of a flexible bandwidth carrier either jointly or independently.
