    Abstract: Apparatus and methods of hand-in of a call from a macro node to a femto node include receiving, at a target interface to a plurality of access points, a handoff request to handoff a call of a mobile station, wherein the handoff request comprises a cellular identifier corresponding to a pilot identifier of a pilot signal. Further, the apparatus and methods include determining that the plurality of access points share the cell identifier, and forwarding the handoff request to the plurality of access points that share the cell identifier. Additionally, the apparatus and methods include generating a handoff request acknowledgement comprising a pre-reserved resource that is common to the plurality of access points, wherein the pre-reserved resource enables the mobile station to communicate with the plurality of access points, and transmitting the handoff request acknowledgement to initiate the hand-in to one of the plurality of access points.

    Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate synchronizing timing among wireless nodes in a wireless communication network. A tracking wireless node can synchronize to a global positioning system (GPS) signal if available. Alternatively, the tracking wireless node can receive quality metrics related to one or more target nodes. The quality metrics can relate to parameters that can be utilized to evaluate the target node for timing synchronization. Based on the quality metrics, the tracking wireless node can select a target wireless node for timing synchronization. The tracking wireless node can subsequently synchronize timing with the target wireless node. In addition, the tracking wireless node can continually evaluate surrounding wireless nodes to detect whether other wireless nodes have higher quality metrics than the current target wireless nodes and can accordingly resynchronize with nodes having higher metrics.

    Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate applying offsets and/or selectable hysteresis values to favor access points in cell reselection. In measuring and ranking surrounding access points in reselection, offsets can be applied to favorable access points to facilitate cell reselection thereto. The offset can positively affect measurements, and thus ranking as well, in some cases. Negative offsets can also be applied to lower measurements (and thus ranking) of some access points. Moreover, hysteresis values can be applied in measuring current cells to prevent frequent reselection. The hysteresis values can be selected based on a type of the current cell or related access point to expand the coverage area where desired. Thus, where the current access point is favorable, a larger hysteresis can be added to measurements related to the current access point.
