Abstract:
Distributed antenna systems (DASs) can include a plurality of spatially separated remote antenna units. According to at least one example, a first group of remote antenna units can simulcast downlink transmissions on a first carrier with a particular sector identity (ID). A second group of remote antenna units, including at least one different remote antenna unit from the first group, can simulcast downlink transmissions on a second carrier with the same sector ID. According to at least one other example, two or more remote antenna units which include respective coverage areas that are non-adjacent to one another can be employed to simulcast downlink transmissions.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product are provided. The apparatus may be configured to establish a first call for a first subscription, and accept a second call for a second subscription while maintaining the first call. A single RF transmit chain may be scheduled for uplink transmissions associated with the first call and uplink transmissions associated with the second call. A timesharing schedule for the transmit chain may determine timing for the uplink transmissions associated with the first call is transmitted and when the uplink transmissions associated with the second call is transmitted on the transmit chain. Downlink transmissions associated with the first and second calls may be received using different receive chain. Downlink transmissions associated with the first and second calls may be received using the same receive chain.
Abstract:
Techniques for supporting high decoding throughput are described. A transmitter may encode a code block of data bits with a Turbo encoder. A receiver may perform decoding for the code block with a Turbo decoder having multiple soft-input soft-output (SISO) decoders. A contention-free Turbo interleaver may be used if the code block size is larger than a threshold size. A regular Turbo interleaver may be used if the code block size is equal to or smaller than the threshold size. The contention-free Turbo interleaver reorders the data bits in the code block such that information from the multiple SISO decoders, after interleaving or deinterleaving, can be written in parallel to multiple storage units in each write cycle without encountering memory access contention. The regular Turbo interleaver can reorder the data bits in the code block in any manner without regard to contention-free memory access.

Abstract:
A wireless communication network uses backhaul negotiation based upon static and dynamic resource assignment on jamming graphs. Static reuse factor design methods including fractional frequency reuse (FFR) are addressed. The jamming graph is used to summarize the interfering relationship between transmitters (nodes in the jamming graph). Negotiation-based algorithm is used to arrive at a static resource assignment so that a large reuse factor can be achieved while jamming scenario can be avoided. As a result of such algorithm, each transmitter is assigned some resources, over which traffic transmission can be done instantaneously to reduce the packet delay for short packets. Based on the result of static resource negotiation algorithm, a dynamic resource algorithm can be run, such that the resources assigned to different nodes can be share in a bursty traffic scenario to further reduce packet delay for larger packet size cases, while jamming be also avoided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. A device may use enhanced reporting mechanisms to support control information reporting on shared spectrum. In some cases, a device may utilize enhanced component carriers (eCCs) for data transmissions. In one example, the device may transmit control information (e.g., ACK/NACK, CSI, etc.) to a corresponding device using a CCA exempt transmission (CET). In another example, a device may report control information quasi-periodically. For instance, a device may be assigned a specified interval and a control feedback window for reporting control information (e.g., CSI). The window may provide a duration prior and subsequent to the specified interval during which a UE may transmit control information. For example, the device may perform a CCA reserving the channel for a duration that does not include the specified interval but may transmit feedback information based on determining the specified interval falls within the assigned window.
Abstract:
An access terminal configured to enable communication with two or more wireless communications networks simultaneously. According to some aspects of the disclosure, an access terminal (e.g., dual- SIM access terminal) can be active simultaneously on both networks with reduced interference between transmission and reception. A number of different techniques for mitigating desense on a victim's Rx are illustrated in this disclosure with a GSM aggressor and an EV- DO victim as non-limiting examples. According to an embodiment, modifying a preamble detection process of the second data at the second radio access circuit based on the transmitting time period. According to another embodiment, estimating a percentage of second data to be interfered by the transmission of the first data during the transmitting time period, the second data being to be received using a second radio access circuit of a second RAT, determining an effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) based on the estimated percentage and sending a DRC request based on the effective SNR using the second radio access circuit. According to another embodiment, suspending handling of at least one corrupted forward link MAC channel at the second radio access circuit during the transmitting time period. According to another embodiment, storing the second data in a memory, determining a desense value indicative of a degree of desense on the reception of the second data caused by the transmission of the first data, and selectively nulling the second data in the memory based on the desense value.
Abstract:
The various embodiments include a dual-SIM-dual-active (DSDA) device and methods for implementing robust receive (Rx) processing to resolve radio frequency coexistence interference between two subscriptions operating on the DSDA device. The DSDA device may detect when a subscription (the "aggressor") de-senses the other subscription (the "victim") as a result of the aggressor's transmissions, and in response, implement robust Rx processing to mitigate the effects of de-sense on the victim while causing minimal impact to the aggressor.

Systems and methods configured to provide size matching of downlink control information (DCI) formats to restrict a number of DCI format sizes for a set of DCI formats for concurrent use are described. In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, size matching at least two DCI formats of a set of DCI formats to restrict a number of DCI format sizes for the set of DCI formats for concurrent use is implemented. Restrictions with respect to the number of DCI format sizes for the set of DCI formats may correspond both to a first number of DCI sizes parameter based on a total number of DCI format sizes per wireless communication slot, and to a second number of DCI sizes parameter based on a total number of DCI format sizes for DCI formats used to carry DCI payload encoded using an identifier per wireless communication slot.
