摘要:
Generally discussed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods that can provide a coverage enhancement to a coverage limited device. According to an example a method can include determining a received signal strength of a reference signal transmitted from a base station, determining a coverage enhancement based on the determined signal strength, or transmitting a signature sequence of a plurality of signature sequences a first repeated number of times corresponding to the determined coverage enhancement.

Embodiments of user equipment (UE) and method for handover enhancement using a scaled time-to-trigger (TTT) and a time-of-stay are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the TTT is scaled based on at least one of a measured reference signal received quality (RSRQ) value of a serving cell and a time-of-stay in the serving cell.

Methods, systems, and devices for network selection are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) includes a communication component, a rules component, and a network selection component. The communication component may be configured to communicate over a 3GPP network and a non-cellular network. The rules component may be configured to store an access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF) management object (MO) that includes wireless local area network (WLAN) selection policies for network selection on the UE. The WLAN selection policies may include interworking WLAN (I-WLAN) policies and Hotspot 2.0 (HS2.0) parameters. The network selection component is configured to select an available WLAN based on the ANDSF MO.

Sub-band allocation techniques for reduced-bandwidth machine-type communication (MTC) devices are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment (UE) may comprise logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to identify a machine-type communication (MTC) sub-band allocation based on received MTC sub-band allocation information, the MTC sub-band allocation to comprise an allocation of a plurality of subcarriers to an MTC sub-band of a system bandwidth of a serving cell of the UE, the MTC sub-band allocation to define at least one MTC direct current (DC) subcarrier among the plurality of subcarriers, and a radio interface to receive a transmission via the MTC sub-band according to the MTC sub-band allocation. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Technology for contention free physical uplink shared control channel (PUSCH) transmission using listen before talk procedure is disclosed. In an example, an apparatus of a user equipment (UE) having circuitry configured to achieves low latency synchronization with an anchor enhanced Node (eNB) by sensing for a predetermined time period if any physical uplink shared channels (PUSCH) are idle with the anchor eNB for uplink (UL) synchronization; providing a unique UE identification in a PUSCH transmission; and communicating the PUSCH transmission in one of the idle PUSCH channels for contention free communication with the anchor eNB for uplink synchronization.

Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), an Evolved Node-B (eNB), and methods for communication of uplink messages are generally described herein. The UE may receive, from an eNB, one or more downlink control messages that may indicate an allocation of PUCCH channel resources. The UE may transmit an uplink control message in at least a portion of the allocated PUCCH channel resources. When the PUCCH channel resources are allocated according to an edge configuration, the PUCCH channel resources may be restricted to a lower edge portion and an upper edge portion of the network channel resources. When the PUCCH channel resources are allocated according to a distributed configuration, the PUCCH channel resources may include one or more middle portions of the network channel resources. The middle portions may be exclusive to the lower edge and upper edge portions.

Resource allocation techniques for device-to-device (D2D) discovery are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment (UE) may comprise at least one radio frequency (RF) transceiver to receive device-to-device (D2D) configuration information comprising a D2D discovery period index value for a first D2D discovery period and logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to determine a D2D discovery period index value for a second D2D discovery period based on the D2D discovery period index value for the first D2D discovery period and determine a set of D2D discovery resource allocation parameters for the second D2D discovery period based on a set of D2D discovery resource allocation parameters for the first D2D discovery period and the D2D discovery period index value for the second D2D discovery period. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
An enhanced NodeB (eNB), user equipment (UE) and method of communicating using Long Term Evolution (LTE) licensed and unlicensed bands are generally described herein. The eNB may transmit a trigger signal to the UE. The trigger signal may be transmitted in the LTE unlicensed or licensed band and inform the UE of transmission of a reference signal from the eNB to the UE in the unlicensed band. The trigger signal may correspond to a single reference signal transmission or multiple periodic or consecutive reference signal transmissions. The trigger signal or a separate trigger signal may be used to inform the UE of a data transmission. The trigger signal may be transmitted at any point prior to or in the same subframe as the reference signal and the reference signal may be transmitted before, after or in the same subframe as the data.

Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, an apparatus may be configured to receive a first scheduling request transmission for a first cell group, and a second scheduling request transmission for a second cell group, determine one of the first scheduling request and the second scheduling request to have a higher priority and another one of the first scheduling request and the second scheduling request to have a lower priority, and process the scheduling request having a higher priority without processing the scheduling request having a lower priority. An apparatus may be configured to combine a configuration of a first scheduling request for a first cell group and a second configuration of a second scheduling request for a secondary cell group in a system radio bearer, and transmit the SRB to a user equipment to process the first scheduling request and the second scheduling request.
