Abstract:
The disclosure relates to position sensors. An apparatus in accordance with aspects of the disclosure, the apparatus includes a wireless transceiver configured to transmit and receive wireless signals, a SPS receiver configured to receive SPS signals, memory, and a processor. The processor/memory may be configured to generate SPS-based location data using the SPS receiver in response to receipt of a MDT measurement request, determine whether the SPS-based location data is accurate or not accurate, in response to a determination that the SPS-based location data is not accurate, generate network-based location data using the wireless transceiver and include the network-based location data in an MDT report, in response to a determination that the SPS-based location data is accurate, include the SPS-based location data in the MDT report, and transmit the MDT report, wherein the MDT report includes one or both of the SPS-based location data and/or the network-based location data.
Abstract:
Examples described herein relate to managing reselection for a wireless communication device having a first subscription associated with a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) and a second subscription associated with a second RAT, including determining an occurrence of a barring procedure that bars a target cell or a target frequency for the first subscription for a barring duration and deprioritizing the target cell or the target frequency for the barring duration on the second subscription.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine that a number of access stratum (AS) operations or communications have failed while attempting to communicate with a cell. Based on the AS failures, the UE may deprioritize the cell. For example, based on the deprioritization, the UE may bar certain cells from selection or reselection procedures. The UE may thus attempt to select or reselect a different cell even if the cell is ranked lower based on a selection criteria or reselection criteria. In some cases, UEs may store and share historical AS failure information that may also be used to determine when to deprioritize a cell. In some cases, a group of cells may be deprioritized (e.g., a group based on frequency, network, or tracking area).
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus selects an LTE serving cell and a non-LTE serving cell. Measurement objects corresponding thereto are identified based on a review of broadcasted system information and historical information relating to prior serving cells. The apparatus identifies measurement objects from other radio access technologies (RATs) (WCDMA, CDMA, GSM). The remaining measurement objects may be identified based on measurement identifiers. The apparatus performs wireless measurements based on the selected serving cells and identified measurement objects. The resulting measurements are transmitted to the network for use in determining channel conditions.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided to initiate signal transmissions for possible opportunistic reception by a mobile device. For example, a mobile device may use assistance data to identify a first signal to be transmitted over a first frequency band and a second signal to be transmitted over a second frequency band during a specific period of time. At least a portion of the second frequency band may be outside of the first frequency band (702). The mobile device subsequently attempts to opportunistically receive at least the first signal and the second signal via a receiver tuned to a reception frequency band that encompasses at least the first frequency band and the second frequency band (704). The mobile device may then process the opportunistically received signals to obtain measurements corresponding to at least the first and second signals.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. One technique includes identifying, by a user equipment (UE), a periodic time window for the UE to access a network, and transmitting an indication of the periodic time window to the network in a random access channel transmission. The technique also describes receiving, from the network based at least in part on the periodic time window, an indication of uplink resources allocated to the UE during the identified periodic time window. Another technique includes receiving, from a UE in a random access channel transmission, an indication of a periodic time window for the UE to access the network. The technique also includes determining, based at least in part on the periodic time window, uplink resources for the UE to access the network during instances of the identified periodic time window and transmit an indication of the uplink resources.
Abstract:
A method for circuit switched fall back (CSFB) for a multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) mobile communication device, includes: initiating a CSFB procedure; receiving an RRC Connection Release message without a redirected Carrier lnfo information element (IE); collecting neighbor cell information (NCI); and performing circuit switched (CS) call redirection to a neighbor cell based on collected NCI (CNCI).
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method, apparatus, and computer-readable medium that is able to avoid ping pong mobility when a redirection procedure fails. The apparatus may attempt to perform a redirection procedure from a first RAT to a target frequency of a second RAT. The apparatus may receive a redirection failure notification indicating that the target frequency of the second RAT is unavailable. The apparatus may refrain from initiating a reselection procedure to the target frequency of the second RAT for a predetermined time period. The apparatus may deprioritize the target frequency of the second RAT for the predetermined time period when the target frequency of the second RAT is unavailable and is present in an SIB received from the neighbor cell. The apparatus may generate a list of banned frequencies that includes the target frequency of the second RAT when the target frequency of the second RAT is unavailable.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications. A method and apparatus described include detecting a connection event after completing a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection reconfiguration procedure with a base station. The method and apparatus include transmitting a connection release request message on a signaling radio bearer (SRB) to the base station in response to detecting the connection event. The method and apparatus include initiating a connection release timer in response to detecting the connection event. The method and apparatus include monitoring for a synchronization message from the base station. The method and apparatus include performing a first connection procedure to synchronize with the base station based on receiving the synchronization message from the base station prior to an expiration of the connection release timer.
Abstract:
Examples described herein relate to systems and methods for a wireless communication device to manage cell measurements, including, but not limited to, performing measurements based on a first measurement configuration message received from a network, receiving a second measurement configuration message from the network before the measurements based on the first measurement configuration message are completed, and continuing to perform measurements based on the first measurement configuration message after receiving the second measurement configuration message.
