Abstract:
Methods and apparatus of monitoring cells in a wireless communication system may include determining existence of a condition for performing a cell search on a frequency. In addition the methods and apparatus may include calculating an undetected energy related value for a hypothetical undetected cell based on a measured energy related value of each detected cell on the frequency in response to determining the condition for performing the cell search. The methods and apparatus may further include determining whether to perform the cell search based on the undetected energy related value and a reselection criteria.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods include receiving one or more first signals at a user equipment (UE) during a first portion of a transmission time interval (TTI), wherein the one or more first signals are transmitted by a network to the UE using a transport format; determining the transport format upon receiving the one or more first signals and prior to a second portion of the TTI subsequent to the first portion of the TTI; and receiving one or more second signals at the UE during a second portion of the TTI.
Abstract:
Aspects of the method and apparatuses relate to performing user equipment (UE) only discontinuous transmission (DTX) smart blanking. One aspect of the method and apparatuses includes maintaining a list of voice configurations that would trigger user equipment (UE) discontinuous transmission (DTX). Further, the aspect includes receiving a current voice configuration for the UE from a network, and determining whether the current voice configuration of the UE received from the network fails within the list of voice configurations that would trigger UB DTX. Further, the aspect includes enabling uplink UE DTX at the UE when the current voice configuration of a UB falls within the list of voice configurations.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatuses that may provide for more efficient usage of time-to-trigger (TTT) timers in a wireless communication system, such that stopping or resetting of the TTT timer in response to receiving various measurement control messages (MCMs) can be limited to times when such stopping or resetting is appropriate.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for wireless communication for improving back to back cell reselection that includes establishing that cell reselection to a primary candidate cell has failed. Afterwards, a UE determines if a set of predetermined conditions have been triggered and schedules cell reselection to a secondary candidate based on whether the set of predetermined conditions have been triggered.
Abstract:
Techniques for uplink transmit power command (ULTPC) rejection threshold optimization in WCDMA for power control algorithm 2 (PCA2) are described. Uplink transmit power control commands may be received on a five-slot interval. The uplink transmit power control commands may be decoded for each of the five slots. The decoded uplink transmit power control commands may be compared for each of the five slots to a threshold. The threshold may he optimized to minimize overall transmit power control decision error. A bit decision may be made for each of the five slots based on the comparison and an overall transmit power control command may be determined based on the bit decision for each of the five slots over the five-slot interval.
Abstract:
A wireless user equipment device transmits a control channel and a data channel. Each of the control channel and the data channel include a plurality of time slots. The control channel is configured to transmit control information and includes both transmission time slots and non-transmission time slots. The data channel is configured to transmit data packets. The device further includes a processor configured to schedule at least one data packet for transmission in at least one data channel time slot that is concurrent to at least one control channel transmission time slot, and a transmission module configured to transmit the at least one data packet in the at least one data channel time slot that is concurrent to the at least one control channel transmission time slot.
