Abstract:
Access terminals and network nodes are adapted to conduct access terminal registrations. In one example an access terminal may obtain a data message for transmission and registration information associated with the access terminal. The access terminal may send a message including the data message and the registration information. A network node can receive a message from an access terminal where the received message includes a data message and access terminal registration information. The network node can register the access terminal with a network based on the access terminal registration information included in the received message. The network node can also process the data message included in the received message. Other aspects embodiments and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract:
Access terminals and network nodes are adapted to conduct access terminal registrations. In one example an access terminal with a respective class designation may receive a message including a plurality of periodic registration schedules where at least one registration schedule is associated with an access terminal class. The access terminal may determine a periodic registration schedule associated with its respective class designation and may perform periodic access terminal registrations according to the determined periodic registration schedule. In one example a network node can obtain a plurality of periodic registration schedules with at least one registration schedule associated with an access terminal class. The network node can transmit a message including the plurality of periodic registration schedules and can conduct access terminal registrations according to the plurality of periodic registrations schedules. Other aspects embodiments and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for creating tags (static or dynamic) for input/output classes of a neural network model using supervised learning. The method includes augmenting a neural network model with a plurality of neurons and training the augmented network using spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) to determine one or more tags.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to facilitate extended time periods for maintaining PPP sessions. According to one example an access terminal can communicate with a network entity to establish a PPP session maintained by an extended time period. The extended time frame can be different (e.g. greater or less) than a default time period for maintaining the PPP session. For instance the access terminal may establish a PPP session including a PPP connection. The access terminal may also send a persistence indicator to the network entity to cause setting the extended time period for maintaining the PPP session. The network entity may receive the persistence indicator and accordingly employ a differing time period (e.g. an extended time period) for maintaining the PPP session. Other aspects embodiments and features are also included.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to facilitate reception of overhead messages. According to one example an access terminal can determine whether it is at least substantially stationary. The access terminal may receive one or more sequence numbers corresponding to a subsequent overhead message. In response to being at least substantially stationary the access terminal can ignore the subsequent overhead message when the corresponding sequence numbers are the same as stored sequence numbers corresponding to a previously obtained overhead message even when the previously obtained overhead message is more than six hundred seconds old. According to another example a network node may transmit an overhead message including a corresponding sector indicator and sequence numbers. When the sector indicator and the sequence numbers are the same as a previously received and stored sector indicator and sequence numbers the access terminal can ignore the overhead message. Other aspects embodiments and features are also included.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to communicate with registration servers to enable a registration server to perform timer based registrations on behalf of an access terminal. The access terminal can cease performing such timer based registrations as long as the registration server performs the registrations and may power down until event data is available for transmission or reception. When a registration server performs timer based registrations on behalf of an access terminal the registration server can periodically communicate with a network entity to conduct the timer based registrations for the access terminal. The network entity can receive a timer based registration message from a registrations server for registering an access terminal. In response to such a message the network entity can register the access terminal. Sensors and controllers may be used with some embodiments to collect and analyze data and for potentially taking action. Other aspects embodiments and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
An access point is identified based on a plurality of pilot signatures (pseudo-random noise, PN, spreading codes or scrambling codes). Here, in addition to transmitting a pilot signal that is encoded (e.g., spread/scrambled) using a particular pilot signature, an access point transmits a message that includes at least one indication of at least one other pilot signature (e.g. PN offset or PN phase). For example, an access point may use one PN offset to generate and transmit a pilot signal and transmit a different message that identifies (includes) at least another PN offset. An access terminal that receives the pilot signal and the message may then generate a pilot report that identifies all of these pilot signatures. Upon receiving a handover message including this pilot- related information, a target network entity with knowledge of the pilot signatures assigned to that access point may then accurately identify the access point as a target for handover of the access terminal. In a certain aspect of the invention, a femto management system maintains a pool of PN offsets that may be allocated to femtocells mapping between PN offsets and cell -IDs may be carried out.
