摘要:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In one method, a wireless device may establish a connection with an access node (AN) of a local area network (LAN). The wireless device may also determine to perform an authentication. The wireless device may further receive an indication, as part of the authentication, of a protocol end point for the authentication as being a non-access stratum (NAS) layer or a radio resource control (RRC) layer. In another method, an AN may establish a connection with a wireless device. The AN may determine the wireless device determined to perform an authentication with an authenticator included in the AN. The AN may further indicate, as part of the authentication, a protocol end point for the authentication as being the NAS layer or the RRC layer.
摘要:
A femto base station (BS) maintains two different timings: a femto BS downlink timing and a femto BS uplink timing. A femto base station's uplink reference timing is based on the macro uplink timing being used by one or more UE devices in the local vicinity of the femto BS. In some embodiments, the femto BS synchronizes its femto uplink timing to the macro uplink timing being used by the closest UE device transmitting uplink signals to the macro BS. In other embodiments, the femto BS determines its femto base station uplink timing based on one or more uplink signals from UE devices in its vicinity transmitting to the macro BS. In various embodiments, femto cell uplink signals and macro cell uplink signals are received at a femto cell BS in synchronization. This approach facilitates frequency division multiplexing (FDM) in the uplink between a macro cell and a femto cell.

In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer program product, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a first node. The first node receives a packet from a second node. The first node determines that the received packet is a query packet, the query packet including information indicating at least a transaction identifier. The first node determines a transaction type based on the information included in the query packet. The first node determines whether to transmit a response packet based on at least one of the transaction type or a transaction identifier at at least one of a PHY layer, a MAC layer, or a link layer. The first node transmits a response packet to the second node in response to determining to transmit the response.
摘要:
Data received from multiple devices (e.g., machine-to-machine devices, machine type communication devices, and so on) is aggregated and delivered to another device (e.g., a base station). In this way, the data is efficiently transmitted to the other device, for example, in scenarios where the devices that source the data have limited transmission capabilities.

Methods, systems, and devices are described that provide for D2D synchronization. The methods, systems, and/or devices may include tools and techniques that provide for synchronizing a mobile device based on detection of a reliability alarm. A reliability alarm may be used between mobile devices, which is transmitted and/or received on specific D2D resources. Since the resources are reserved for the reliability alarm, a mobile device which was previously isolated from network synchronization will be able to receive the reliability alarm that a reliable synchronization signal is close when it moves within range of a reliable device. Once a reliability alarm is received the mobile device may free other resources to allow it to receive synchronization signals from the reliable devices. The mobile device may then synchronize with the network based on the received synchronization signals and transmit its own reliability alarm for subsequent isolated devices to use.

Methods, apparatuses and systems are described for conveying location information from an announcing user device to a listening user device engaged in ProSe discovery communications. The announcing user device may use a first expression to broadcast an initial announcement, and then use a second expression to broadcast the location of the announcing user device. The first expression may be in the form of a public expression while the second expression may be in the form of a private expression.
摘要:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for congestion control are provided. The apparatus measures respective signal qualities in at least two regions of a resource block, compares the respective signal qualities to each other, and determines a network congestion level based on the comparison. In an aspect, the apparatus may further decide whether to use resources respectively included in the at least two regions based on the network congestion level. Alternatively, the apparatus may further identify at least one MTC device or UE to refrain from using resources respectively included in the at least two regions when the network congestion level is above a threshold, and transmit a congestion control signal to the at least one identified MTC device or identified UE when the network congestion level is above the threshold.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for improving communications of a machine type communications (MTC) device. In a method of communication, a signal to interference noise ratio (SINR) of one or more resource blocks (RBs) of a target device may be estimated by, for example, an MTC device. The MTC device may then select one or more of the RBs of the target device to be in a resource pool based at least in part on the estimated SINR. In some embodiments, the MTC device may compare the estimated SINR of the one or more RBs of the target device to a threshold SINR and select one or more RBs with an SINR less than the threshold SINR to be in the resource pool. In some embodiments, the MTC device may randomly select a resource block from the resource pool and transmit on the selected resource block.
