摘要:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure provide a unified scheme for selecting an operator and a radio access technology (RAT) by a multi-mode wireless device during a power-up or a handover process. By utilizing the proposed scheme, the mobile station may switch between RATs that are associated with the Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) or 3GPP2 standards.
摘要:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure allow a mobile station to activate a sleep mode in order to reduce power consumption when the residual battery capacity is low. Certain embodiments of the present disclosure also provide techniques for adaptive power saving applied during an idle mode operation.

摘要:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure allow a mobile station (MS) to proactively request neighbor base station information from a serving base station, for example, if a mobile neighbor advertisement (MOB_NBR-ADV) message is not received (or expected) in a predetermined time period.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for easily and quickly returning to a first radio access technology (RAT) network when handover to a second RAT network is cancelled are provided. The methods and apparatus may involve a mobile station (MS) entering idle mode before handover to the second RAT network is completed and requesting a serving base station (BS) to retain MS service and operational information, as well as service flow state information. In this manner, should handover to the second RAT network be cancelled before completion, a re-entry to the first RAT network may be expeditiously performed using the retained MS information.

摘要:
Certain embodiments of the present disclosure present methods and apparatuses that enable a mobile station (MS) to selectively reject downlink (DL) data during idle mode. The MS may determine whether to reject the pending DL data based on information about the data. This information may be provided by a base station (BS) that is part of the access service network (ASN) that is retaining the DL data. The information provided by the BS may, for instance, include service flow information related to the pending DL data. In certain embodiments, the information may include one or more internet protocol (IP) packets that are part of the pending DL data.

摘要:
Methods and apparatus for expressing two or more extended information elements (IEs) of a MAP message using a single Extended or Extended-2 Downlink Interval Usage Code (DIUC) or Uplink Interval Usage Code (UIUC) in an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) or orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) frame are provided. This enhancement, called extensible Extended IE mapping, allows the WiMAX network to include more IEs into the DL-MAP and UL-MAP messages as the IEEE 802.16 family of standards evolves. Without this enhancement, all of the new IEs may most likely have to be included in the data bursts, and a user terminal (e.g., a mobile station) cannot decode these data-burst IEs unless the user terminal receives the Downlink Channel Descriptor (DCD) message(s).
