    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus communicates using a first radio based on a first radio technology and configures a second radio based on a second radio technology different from the first radio technology to receive signals transmitted based on a radio technology different from the second radio technology. The apparatus also measures a quality indicator of a signal received at the second radio. The signal is transmitted based on the radio technology different from the second radio technology.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices are described for utilizing scaling factors and/or fractional bandwidth and waveforms for wireless communication. Scaling factors may be utilized to relate aspects of one subsystem with aspects of another subsystem. Embodiments may utilize portions of spectrum that may not be big enough to fit a standard waveform. Scaling factors may be utilized to generate fractional waveforms to fit these portions of spectrum. A fractional subsystem may be generated with respect to a normal subsystem or other fractional subsystem through dilating or scaling time frequency state or other aspects of the fractional subsystem with respect to time frequency state or other aspects of the normal subsystem or the other fractional subsystem. The fractional subsystem may be aligned with a normal system at different times and/or different frequencies. Scaling information may be utilized to perform measurements on another subsystem perform handoffs to another subsystem perform reselection align etc.

    Abstract: Methods systems and devices for separating signaling data and traffic data onto separate carriers for wireless communications systems are provided. Some embodiments utilize flexible bandwidth that may utilize portions of spectrum that may not be big enough to fit a normal waveform through utilizing flexible waveforms. Flexible bandwidth systems may lead to reduced data rate on the signaling or other channels. Separating the signaling and the data traffic into different flexible bandwidth carriers so that assigned resources can be customized to different traffic patterns may address this issue. In some embodiments the signaling data is received and/or transmitted over a first carrier separate from any other traffic data. For example the signaling data may be received and/or transmitted over the first band carrier without any other traffic data. The traffic data and/or network data associated with the signaling data may be received and/or transmitted over a separate second carrier.

    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: Methods systems and devices are described for providing flexible bandwidth waveforms and channels for wireless communication. Embodiments may utilize portions of spectrum that may not be large enough to fit a standard or normal waveform. Chip rates may be adapted dynamically to generate and/or to receive flexible bandwidth waveforms to fit these portions of spectrum. Scaling factors and/or center frequencies may also be utilized to generate flexible waveforms. A mobile device may receive adjustment information from a base station so that the mobile device may dynamically adjust its chip rate to utilize a flexible bandwidth channel. A base station may simultaneously transmit on a normal bandwidth channel and a flexible bandwidth channel in some cases. Some flexible bandwidth waveforms may be utilized that are larger or take more bandwidth than a normal waveform. Flexible bandwidth may also be utilized to split and/or combine frequency channels.
