Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide a handover may be performed based on one or more conditions at a UE and in conjunction with a handover procedure from a source base station to a target base station. The one or more conditions at the UE may be associated with successful establishment or maintenance of the second connection. In some cases, the one or more conditions at the UE may correspond to one or more measurements associated with the source base station, the target base station, one or more neighboring base stations, or any combinations thereof.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a paging configuration may be provided by a base station that indicates one or more occasions during which a user equipment (UE) is to monitor for pages. A location of the paging occasion may be based at least in part on at least one synchronization signal block (SSB) transmitted by the base station. A mapping between a paging occasion index and the location of the paging occasion is indicated in the paging configuration. Paging windows may be configured during downlink slots that contain an SSB transmission. Paging transmissions may use beamforming parameters that are the same as SSB transmission beamforming parameters.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for making handoff decisions in an access terminal which can support both best effort and QoS traffic, e.g., when operating in a best effort and QoS mode of operation, respectively, are described. The access terminal receives an indicator indicating the fraction of communications resources not utilized for QoS service and information indicating a number of best effort users being supported by the attachment point. During Qos mode operation, connections to attachment points which can support the access terminal's minimal QoS requirements are identified and then from among the identified set, the attachment point which can provide a connect supporting the most best effort traffic from the access terminal is selected. In best effort mode operation the access terminal selects the attachment point connection which will provide the greatest amount of throughput to the access terminal for best effort traffic.

Abstract:
Various aspects described herein relate to adjusting transmit power of a radio frequency (RF) transceiver. A total power adjustment for adjusting a transmit power of the RF transceiver can be determined. The transmit power can be adjusted to a first adjusted transmit power based at least in part on a first adjustment size that is less than the total power adjustment and determined based at least in part on the transmit power. Digital pre-distortion (DPD) training of the RF transceiver can be performed to adjust one or more coefficients for calibrating the RF transceiver based on the first adjusted transmit power. The first adjusted transmit power can be adjusted to a second adjusted transmit power based at least in part on a second adjustment size that is less than the total power adjustment and computed based at least in part on the first adjusted transmit power.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are described where loading information regarding loading conditions at a neighboring base station is received at a first base station and then communicated, e.g., broadcast, by the first base station to mobiles within the cell in which the first base station is located. Since the neighbor base station's loading information is being communicated to a mobile currently connected to the first base station via a reliable communications channel of the first base station, the mobile can be expected to be able to reliably recover loading factor information corresponding to not only the first base station but to the neighboring base station. By utilizing such loading factor information, the mobile can generate an improved uplink interference report. The first base station receives such interference reports from wireless terminals in its cell, facilitating efficient resource allocation and interference control.
