    摘要: LTE-WLAN aggregation (LWA) at the radio access network level promises significant gain in system capacity and user quality of experience (QoE). In order to support QoS over LWA, there is a need to develop mechanisms to ensure that the access category (AC) classification chosen by a wireless device (AP in the case of downlink, and UE in case of uplink) is consistent with the QoS requirements of the EPS bearer/DRB and/or subscriber profile to which the traffic belongs. The cellular LTE network can provision QoS for both downlink and uplink data flows that are transferred using LWA access.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods are provided for selection and data aggregation for the LWA. In one novel aspect, the UE connected with a first RAN receives a LWA assistance configuration and selects a second RAN based on the LWA assistance configuration. The UE aggregates data traffic from the first RAN and the selected second RAN. In one embodiment, the information request-and-response procedure is used, which allows the first RAN to query the UE about its second RAN association status. In another embodiment, the selection request-and-response procedure is used, which allows the first RAN to exercise some control over which base station of the second RAN is selected by the UE and for the UE to send relevant information about its second RAN connectivity to the first RAN. In another novel aspect, the UE selects a DRB based on the LWA DRB configuration through either a NAS procedure or an operator configuration.

    摘要: Various methods for wireless communication in a device with co-existed/co-located radios are provided. Multiple communication radio transceivers are co-existed/co-located in a user equipment (UE) having in-device coexistence (IDC) capability, which may result in IDC interference. For example, the UE is equipped with both LTE radio and some ISM band applications such as WiFi and Bluetooth modules. In a first method, the network identifies IDC capability by UE identification (e.g., UE ID). In a second method, the UE intentionally performs cell selection or reselection to cells in non-ISM frequency bands. In a third method, the UE signals the existence of ISM band applications via capability negotiation. In a fourth method, the UE signals the activation of ISM band applications by signaling messages (e.g., RRC message or MAC CE). Under the various methods, the UE and its serving eNB can apply FDM or TDM solutions to mitigate the IDC interference.

    摘要: Network-assisted solutions are provided to maintain MBMS service continuity, to provide efficient localized MBMS service, and to achieve intelligent MBMS service management. In a first embodiment, a source eNB acquires MBMS information of neighbor cells and acquires MBMS reception/interest status information of a UE. Based on the acquired information, the source eNB makes handover decision for the UE to handover to a selected target cell and maintain MBMS service continuity. In a second embodiment, location information of a localized MBMS service is provided to a UE. Based on the location information, the UE is able to receive the localized MBMS service with minimum power consumption. In a third embodiment, an MBMS counting procedure is provided for an eNB to count the number of UEs that are receiving or are interested in MBMS service(s). Based on the counting result, the MBMS service(s) can be enabled or disabled accordingly.

    摘要: An enhanced paging mechanism is provided for UEs waking up from a very long paging cycle to improve paging robustness and flexibility. Enhanced paging includes absolute time paging (ATP) and paging with extended wakeup time. For absolute time paging, a UE receives ATP configuration and uses the actual wall time to calculate paging occasion if a condition is satisfied. In one embodiment, the wall time is acquired from at least one of an internal UE clock, a GPS time, information broadcasted from the network, or information from a higher layer signaling. For paging with extended wakeup time, a UE applies a long paging cycle followed by multiple normal paging cycles after waking up from the long paging cycle. In one embodiment, the long paging cycle is infinite and the UE enters normal paging cycle only upon TAU-triggered paging or uplink traffic.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods are provided to enhance BSR and LCP procedures for the dual connectivity system. In one novel aspect, the BSR is handled for each MAC entity according to one or more allocation rules. In one embodiment, the allocation rule is configured by the network. In another embodiment, the allocation rule is determined by the UE based on historic statics. In yet another embodiment, the allocation rule is determined by the UE based on information from the network. In one embodiment, the allocation rule indicates percentage of traffic allocated to each MAC entity. In another novel aspect, LCP is performed independently for each MAC entity if the split bearer is configured and the prioritized bit rate (PBR) and the bucket size duration (BSD) are signaled for each eNB. In one embodiment, separate sets of LCG variables are maintained independently for each MAC entity.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for UE to report preference indication and other UE assistance information to the network is proposed. The UE transmits RRC release assistance information to the network. The assistance information is based on both cell change count and RRC state transition count so that RRC inactivity time can be determined to reduce signaling overhead.
