摘要:
A multi-mode user equipment (10) is provided. The multi-mode user equipment comprises: a processor (582) configured to promote measurement of a signal strength of a microtechnology-based network (30) during a portion of a macrotechnology-based communication from a network component (40) to the multi-mode user equipment (10), the processor (582) being configured to measure the signal strength of the microtechnology-based network (30) during an idle time within data strings (110) of a macrotechnology-based data transmission (100).
摘要:
An access node. The access node includes a component configured to communicate with a mobile station operating on one of a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT. The component is configured to communicate a permission to the mobile station to attempt to identify a cell of the first RAT in the absence of communicating to the mobile station a first radio access type neighbour cell list for a serving cell of the second RAT.
摘要:
A method and device for transmitting a sequence of messages from a handheld telecommunications device to a telecommunications network is described, the sequence of messages comprising a plurality of messages to be transmitted at specified times. The method comprises transmitting a message of the sequence of messages and turning off at least one of the transmitter and receiver of the device after transmission of at least one of the messages in the sequence of messages. The method has particular application to messages that terminate a radio connection, such as RRC Connection Release Complete messages in a UMTS system.

A system is provided that includes a user equipment 10 configured to attempt a quality measure of a signal from a home local network 20 only when the user equipment 10 is within range of the home local network 10.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for transitioning states or modes on a user equipment, the method having the steps of receiving, at a network element, a transition indication; checking a radio resource profile for the user equipment; and making a transitioning decision at the network element based on the received transition indication and the radio resource profile.
摘要:
A macrotechnology-based system, comprising: a processor (582) configured to promote macrotechnology-based transmission to a multi-mode user equipment (10) of a signal having a plurality of data portions (110) and a plurality of gaps (120) between ones of the plurality of data portions (110), wherein at least one of the gaps (120) is used by the multi-mode user equipment (10) for measurement of a first signal strength of a first macrotechnology-based network (30), wherein the processor (582) is further configured to use idle time within a data portion of a data transmission, discontinuous reception 'DRX' period, to make a second microtechnology-based pilot signal strength measurement.
