Abstract:
A user equipment (10) is operable in a first mode in which the user equipment (10) is configured for communication with a first cellular network (30) and a second mode in which the user equipment (10) is configured for communication with a second cellular network (40). Mode switching between the modes is performed autonomously by the user equipment (10) or under the control of a cellular network node. The user equipment (10) has a first power consumption when operating in the first mode and a second power consumption when operating in the second mode, the second power consumption being different from the first power consumption.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing high power channel state notification, management, and optimization are provided. In some embodiments, data transmissions from mobile devices to remote servers are managed. For example, the operating system, lower level apparatus, or software bundle, sequentially align, or otherwise coordinate the messages to be transmitted during each high power channel state. In addition, the impact to the application and user experience can be utilized in managing the transmissions. In some cases, various embodiments provide the application with the knowledge (e.g., the optimal moment, transmission schedule, etc.) for the transmission of its data. In addition, some embodiments allow the application to piggy back a data transmission that might otherwise be delayed on already open high speed channel to increase the devices performance data transfer.
Abstract:
There are provided measures for enabling/realizing an inactive communication mode, namely an inactive mode for the operation of terminal equipment and network equipment in a communication system. Such measures exemplarily comprise operation in a connected mode, in which a data plane connection and a control plane connection are established between a terminal equipment and a network equipment, transition from the connected mode to an inactive mode upon data plane inactivity, and operation in the inactive mode, in which the data plane connection is released and the control plane connection is maintained between the terminal equipment and the network equipment.
Abstract:
Devices, methods, computer-readable media and systems configurations for multiplexing CSI information and HARQ-ACK information that includes an apparatus comprising a transmit module coupled with both the HARQ-ACK module and the CSI module. In some embodiments, if a scheduling conflict may occur when attempting to encode the HARQ bit stream and the CSI bit stream, the transmit module may perform various resolution processes in the transmitting of the UCI.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more specifically, disclosed are a method and an apparatus for accessing a channel in a WLAN system. A method for accessing the channel from a station (STA) in the wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises a step of transmitting a power save-poll (PS-poll) for channel accessing from a listening interval to an access point, wherein the station operates in a non-traffic indication map (TIM) mode which is not limited by a TIM element that is transmitted from the access point, and wherein the time of transmission of the PS-poll is not limited by the TIM element.
Abstract:
Technology for communicating power preference indication (PPI) message is described. A user equipment (UE) may receive PPI configuration information, from an evolved node B (eNB), wherein the PPI configuration information includes a predetermined threshold for a number of PPI messages that the UE can communicate to the eNB during a defined time window. The UE may communicate a plurality of PPI messages after sending a low power consumption configuration to the eNB during the defined time window, wherein the plurality of PPI messages each indicate a change in preferred power consumption configuration. The UE may detect that the plurality of PPI messages exceeds the predetermined threshold for the number of PPI messages that the UE can communicate to the eNB during the defined time window as defined in the PPI configuration information. The UE may initiate a threshold timer in response to the plurality of PPI messages exceeding the predetermined threshold to restrict additional PPI messages from being communicated to the eNB until expiration of the threshold timer.
Abstract:
A 3GPP monitoring architecture framework provides monitoring event configuration, detection, and reporting for machine-type and other mobile data applications using a machine type communication interworking function (MTC-IWF) that communicates monitoring event configuration, detection, and reporting messages through existing interfaces, such as Tsp, T4, and T5 interfaces.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for reducing power consumption of wireless devices operating in a wireless network. In one embodiment, a first wireless device may establish a BLUETOOTH low energy (BLE) connection and a Wi-Fi connection with a second wireless device. The first wireless device may detect Wi-Fi activity and may operate in a low-power mode when no Wi-Fi activity is detected. The first wireless device may receive a synchronized BLE message and may enter a normal operating mode and leave the low-power mode based, at least in part, on the synchronized BLE message. In another embodiment, the first wireless device may operate a scheduler to schedule communications between the second wireless device and a third wireless device. The first wireless device may suspend operation of the scheduler based, at least in part, on a received synchronized BLE message from the second wireless device.
