Abstract:
A technique is disclosed to minimize service interruption at a wireless user equipment device during a handover by maintaining dual active connections during the handover. Upon initiating the handover, an initial/first connection with a first access node is maintained while establishing a second connection with a second access node. The user equipment device can receive data over the first connection and second connection during the handover. The first connection may be terminated (by the user equipment device or by timing out due to inactivity) after the handover is completed. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
A technique is disclosed to facilitate dual active connections by a UE device using a transmitter. A first connection is established with a first access node for wireless communication services. A first coexistence indicator provided/sent by the UE device to the first access node indicating that the UE device supports multiple concurrent connections. In response to providing the first coexistence indicator, the UE device receives a first transmit pattern and a first receive pattern. The transmitter may be configure to transmit according to the first transmit pattern for the first connection while sharing transmission resources with at least one other connection. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also described and claimed herein.

Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for caching content at a network edge and providing the cached content to requesting UEs. An example method generally includes receiving, from a first UE, a request for content from a remote source, retrieving the content from the remote source and providing the content to the first UE, storing at least a portion of the content in a local cache at the base station, receiving a request for the content from at least a second UE, and retrieving the content from the local cache and providing the content to the at least the second UE.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus includes an user equipment which is configured to measure Minimization of Drive Tests (MDT) metrics, to measure Quality of Experience (QoE) metrics, to generate correlation information of at least one of the MDT metrics and at least one of the QoE metrics, and to report the correlation information.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for improving Circuit Switched (CS) Fallback performance, such as in an LTE network, are described. In one aspect, a UE may perform a RAU procedure before performing a CS call setup procedure when the UE has camped on a Non-DTM GERAN target after failing to access a redirection target. In another aspect, an MME may determine whether to perform a PS suspension based on an ISR status associated with a user terminal. In another aspect, an eNB may send information associated with a PS suspension to a user terminal.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for discontinuous transmission and/or discontinuous reception in time division duplex (TDD) systems that may have data transmission formats dynamically reconfigured. An initial uplink-downlink (UL-DL) configuration for TDD communication between an eNB and user equipment (UE) may be established. This initial UL-DL configuration may be reconfigured to a different UL-DL configuration for one or more UEs in communication with the eNB. When a UE switches to discontinuous reception (DRX) mode, it may monitor control information from the eNB during DRX on periods, a frequency of the DRX on periods based on a reference UL-DL configuration irrespective of any reconfiguration of UL-DL configuration for a particular UE. In some aspects, a UE that is operating in a UL-DL reconfiguration mode may, upon entering DRX mode, autonomously discontinue operating in the UL-DL re-configuration mode.
Abstract:
Aspects of radio access technology searching include apparatus and methods for obtaining relative synchronization information between a first radio access technology and a second radio access technology, and determining a time location of a pilot signal of the second radio access technology based on the relative synchronization information. Further aspects include searching for the pilot signal of the second radio access technology using the determined time location. Other aspects further include determining a measurement gap duration and measurement gap location based on the relative synchronization information so as to encompass a pilot of the second radio access technology.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications. The method generally includes attempting, by a machine type communication (MTC) device, an attach procedure in order to detect a triggering request from an MTC server.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus transmits a first set of capabilities to a first cell. The first set of capabilities is for communication with the first cell. The apparatus transmits information associated with a second set of capabilities to the first cell. The second set of capabilities is for communication with a second cell. The apparatus moves from the first cell to the second cell. The apparatus communicates with the second cell based on the transmitted information.
