Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for communication comprise receiving a first activity schedule associated with a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second activity schedule associated with a second RAT. In some aspects, the first activity schedule and the second activity schedule comprise one or both of transmission activity and reception activity. The methods and apparatus further comprise performing one or both of a first interference mitigation procedure and a second interference mitigation procedure to adjust the reception activity on one of the first RAT or the second RAT.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for communication comprise determining that a first portion of a first radio access technology (RAT) activity scheduled during a first time slot overlaps in duration with a portion of a second RAT activity scheduled during a second time slot. The methods and apparatus further comprise excluding the first portion of the first RAT activity based at least in part on determining that the first portion of the first RAT activity overlaps in duration with the portion of the second RAT activity. Additionally, the methods and apparatus comprise performing a second portion of the first RAT activity during the first time slot. In some aspects, the second portion of the first RAT activity is a portion of the first RAT activity that remains after the excluding of the overlap in duration of the first portion of the first RAT activity.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for communication comprise determining that a portion of a first radio access technology (RAT) activity overlaps in duration with a portion of a second RAT activity. The methods and apparatus further comprise determining that a priority value associated with the first RAT activity exceeds a priority value associated with the second RAT activity. Additionally, the methods and apparatus comprise instructing a second RAT communication module to terminate the second RAT activity based at least in part on determining that the priority value associated with the first RAT activity exceeds the priority value associated with the second RAT activity.
Abstract:
The various embodiments include a dual-SIM-dual-active (DSDA)device and methods for implementing robust transmit (Tx) processing to resolve radio frequency coexistence interference between two subscriptions operating on the DSDA device. The DSDA device may detect when one subscription (the "aggressor") de-senses the other subscription (the "victim") as a result of the aggressor's transmissions, and in response, implement robust Tx processing to mitigate the effects of de-sense on the victim.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may be a user equipment that receives interference cancelation information from a base station. Various aspects are described for employing interference cancelation information perform interference suppression in the presence of interference associated with different component carriers when employing carrier aggregation, small cell discovery signals, variations in data channel transmissions associated with certain transmission modes, and higher order QAM rates.
Abstract:
A system, a method and an apparatus are described. The apparatus includes a modem that responds to a thermal mitigation request by invoking different levels of thermal mitigation for different concurrently active connections. In some instances, the modem may invoke thermal mitigation with respect to a first active connection and refrain from invoking thermal mitigation with respect to a second active connection maintained by the modem. The apparatus determines the first and second active connections based on subscriptions corresponding to subscriber identification modules, an identification of a power amplifier or group of power amplifiers responsible for a thermal issue in the modem. The selection of mitigation levels for each active connection and decisions to invoke mitigation on one connection while refraining from invoking mitigation on another connection may be based on priorities of the active connections, including quality of service related priorities.

Abstract:
A new radio (NR) bit prioritization procedure that may be executed by a UE and a base station is disclosed, resulting in transmission and reception of modulation symbols having prioritized bits. For example, a transmitter may encode a code block using low-density parity-check code to generate a stream of encoded bits. The transmitter may arrange the encoded bits in one or more modulation symbols according to a relative priority of the encoded bits. The highest priority bits may be located in the most significant bits of the modulation symbol, and therefore be less likely to experience errors. A receiver may receive the modulation symbols and reorder the encoded bits according to the coding scheme based on the relative priority prior to decoding the encoded bits. The prioritization of the bits within the modulation symbols may provide improved block error rates over sequential mapping of encoded bits to symbols.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to retransmissions of data within wireless communication networks. For a retransmission, at least a portion of the encoded bits of an original transmission may be mapped to different bit locations in one or more modulated symbols based on a non-random mapping rule. In some examples, the encoded bits of a symbol may be reversed within the symbol for a retransmission. In other examples, the first and last encoded bits within a symbol may be switched for a retransmission. Other non-random mapping rules, such as a bit location offset, may also be used to map encoded bits to different bit locations in the modulated symbol within a retransmission.
Abstract:
In order to balance the power requirements of a MIMO receiver with the gains that may be achieved through its use, an apparatus determines whether a current configuration of the UE supports iterative MIMO reception. When it is determined that the current configuration of the UE supports iterative MIMO reception, the apparatus determines whether at least one parameter of the received signal is within a corresponding target condition, respectively, for each of the at least one parameters, e.g., including determining whether a scheduling percentage meets a scheduling threshold and whether an error rate is within an error rate range. When both the configuration supports iterative MIMO reception and the signal parameter(s) meet the corresponding target condition(s), the apparatus uses the iterative MIMO receiver. If not, the apparatus uses a serial receiver.
