Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for using wireless link information from baseband to trigger application data activity. According to some embodiments, wireless link information from baseband may be received at an application processor of a wireless device. The wireless link information may indicate whether the wireless link is in a connected state or an idle state. Network activity timing for one or more application network activity requests may be selected based at least in part on the wireless link information. The application network activity may be initiated for the one or more application network activity requests according to the selected network activity timing.

Abstract: The embodiments set forth techniques for avoiding network connectivity stalls at a mobile computing device. In an idle state, a performance analyzer executing on the mobile computing device is configured to passively analyze high-level network connectivity information to detect any minor issues with the network connectivity being provided by a primary interface (e.g., WiFi). When minor issues are detected, the mobile computing device transitions into an alerted state, where high emphasis is placed on using the WiFi interface and low emphasis is placed on using a secondary interface (e.g., Cellular). In the alerted state, the mobile computing device actively analyzes low-level connectivity information to detect any major issues with the WiFi interface. When major issues are detected, the mobile computing device transitions into a fallback state, where high emphasis is placed on using the Cellular interface and low emphasis is placed on using the WiFi interface.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for selecting a RAT and coalescing application data activities for transmission using the RAT. A plurality of applications may be executed by a UE. During execution, the UE may receive a request to perform communication from each of the plurality of applications. Each request may include a deadline for performing the communication. The UE may further determine a RAT for performing the plurality of communications and schedule the plurality of communications. Scheduling may include combining the plurality of communications to be performed at a scheduled time using the RAT. Accordingly, the plurality of communications may be performed at the scheduled time using the RAT based on said scheduling.

Abstract translation: 本文给出了用于选择RAT并且使用RAT进行传输的应用数据活动的合并的装置，系统和方法的实施例。 UE可以执行多个应用。 在执行期间，UE可以从多个应用程序中的每一个接收执行通信的请求。 每个请求可能包括执行通信的截止日期。 UE还可以确定用于执行多个通信的RAT，并且调度多个通信。 调度可以包括使用RAT组合要在预定时间执行的多个通信。 因此，可以使用基于所述调度的RAT在预定时间执行多个通信。

Abstract: The embodiments described herein can dynamically adjust timing of network bandwidth estimations by adjusting a target frequency for sending probing sequences to one or more receivers of content. The receivers receive these probing sequences from a transmitter and respond to the transmitter with network bandwidth estimations. In one embodiment, the probing sequences can use the content itself to create the probing sequences. The embodiments can be used in video conferencing applications to control how a transmitter of content can adjust transmissions based upon the network bandwidth estimations. In one embodiment, a policy can be used at a transmitter to begin a video transmission with a high frequency target for sending probing sequences (with, e.g., smaller length probing sequences) and transition to a lower frequency target (with, e.g., longer length probing sequences) when network bandwidth deteriorates and then return to the higher frequency target when the network bandwidth improves.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates use of a network link. During operation, the system continuously monitors an interarrival delay of packets received from a sender over the network link. Next, the system adjusts a receive window for the sender based on the interarrival delay to facilitate receipt of subsequent packets from the sender and other senders over the network link.
