    Abstract: An apparatus, computer-readable medium, and method to determine a user equipment (UE) location in a wireless network using signals from a wireless local-area network are disclosed. A wireless communication network entity may be configured to send WLAN assistance data to a UE. The WLAN assistance data may include a list of one or more WLAN access points (APs). The wireless communication network entity may receive location information from the UE. The location information may be based on measurements of signals from one or more of the WLAN APs. The wireless communication network entity may determine an estimate of the location of the UE based on the location information and stored information at the wireless communication network. The wireless communication network entity may determine the estimate of the location of the UE based on the measurements of the signals of the WLAN APs and a geographic position of the WLAN APs.

    Abstract: Systems and methods use multiple spatial layers for physical multicast channel transmission. Certain embodiments introduce additional multimedia broadcast multicast service reference signals that support more than one antenna ports for multicast broadcast single frequency network transmissions. To reduce channel estimation complexity due to the multicast broadcast single frequency network reference signal design, resource elements of the multicast broadcast single frequency network reference signals may have a nested structure. To assist modulation and coding scheme selection, a user according to certain embodiments also independently reports block error rate measurements for each spatial layer of the multicast channel.

    Abstract: Technology for periodic channel state information (CSI) reporting from a user equipment (UE) configured for carrier aggregation is disclosed. One method can include the UE generating a plurality of periodic CSI reports for transmission in a subframe for a plurality of CSI processes, wherein each periodic CSI report corresponds to a CSI process with a CSI process index. A single periodic CSI report from the plurality of periodic CSI reports may be selected to multiplex with a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback. The periodic CSI report multiplex with the HARQ-ACK feedback and any scheduling request (SR) may be determined to have a bit size less than or equal to a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) format 3 maximum payload bit size. The periodic CSI report multiplexed with the HARQ-ACK feedback and any SR may be transmitted to a serving cell.

    Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to a communication between a user equipment (“UE”) and an evolved Node B (“eNB”). A UE may be adapted to signal to an eNB a request to adjust a downlink transmission power level. Based on the request, the eNB may adjust its downlink transmission power level. In another embodiment, an eNB may be adapted to adjust its downlink transmission power level according to a pseudorandom sequence. This pseudorandom sequence may be generated from a seed, which the eNB may signal to a UE. Based on power adjustments and/or randomizations, a UE may perform interference cancellation. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
