Abstract:
Embodiments of apparatus, packages, computer-implemented methods, systems, devices, and computer-readable media (transitory and non-transitory) are described herein for ascertaining, e.g., by a traffic detection function ("TDF"), that a first user equipment ("UE") and a second UE are, potentially, sufficiently proximate to each other to wirelessly exchange data directly. An evolved serving mobile location center ("E-SMLC") may be instructed, e.g., by the TDF, to obtain location change data associated with the first and second UEs. A determination may be made, e.g., by the TDF, based on the location change data, whether the first and second UEs are sufficiently proximate to exchange data directly, and whether the first and second UEs are likely to remain proximate for at least a predetermined time interval. The first and second UEs may be caused to commence device-to-device ("D2D") communication based on the determination.
Abstract:
An integrated WLAN/WWAN architecture is described, in which signaling used to control the integration of the WLAN/WWAN architecture is performed over the Radio Resource Control (“RRC”) plane. The integrated architecture may provide a network-controlled framework for performing traffic steering and radio resource management. Additionally, according to the disclosure provided herein, the integrated architecture may interwork with legacy systems (e.g., architectures that do not support the integrated WLAN/WWAN architecture).
Abstract:
The method (600) involves receiving a configuration of discontinuous reception (610) that is levelled with a multi-radio wireless device e.g. cell phone, from an evolved node B. The wireless device is arranged with a set of radio operated transmitter-receivers. The configuration of discontinuous reception is applied (620) to one of the set of radio operated transmitter-receivers. A shift period is selected (630) among a cycle of 2 milliseconds (ms), 5ms, and 8ms for long discontinuous reception cycle. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a multi-radio wireless device (2) a computer readable medium comprising instructions for performing an interference reduction method.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a system and method for reporting uplink control information (UCI) are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a first and second component carrier (CC) is provided for a user equipment (UE). The first and second CC are configured with transmission mode (TM) 10 and TMs 1-9, respectively. A first channel state information (CSI) report for the first CC with TM 10 and a second CSI report for the second CC with at least one of TMs 1-9 are scheduled for transmission in a subframe. A collision is detected between the first and second CSI reports. Priority is assigned to the first CSI report or the second CSI report based on a prioritization parameter. The prioritized CSI report is transmitted based the prioritization parameter.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe devices, methods, computer-readable media and systems configurations for determining a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) - acknowledgment (ACK) codebook in wireless communication networks.
Abstract:
An evolved Node B (eNB) and method for coherent coordinated multipoint transmission with per CSI-RS feedback are generally described herein. The eNB may configure a first cooperating point and a second cooperating point to jointly transmit a multi-node channel-state information (CSI) reference signal (RS) (CSI-RS) in predetermined resource elements of a resource block. The eNB may receive CSI reports as feedback from user equipment (UE). The CSI reports may include a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) indicating relative phase information between the cooperating points based on the multi-node CSI-RS. The CSI reports for the multi-node CSI-RS may be restricted to a PMI of rank-1. The eNB may configure the cooperating points for a coherent joint transmission to the UE based at least on the relative phase information. The coherent joint transmission may also be jointly beamformed based on single-node PMIs.
