Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) adjusts a rate of performing searches and/or measurements of neighbor cells to conserve resources of the UE. In one instance, the UE independently determines whether to perform the searches and/or measurements of the neighbor cells of first and second RATs based on a signal quality of a serving cell of a first RAT and/or a signal quality of the neighbor cell(s) of the first RAT. The UE avoids performing the searches and/or measurements of the neighbor cell(s) when the signal quality of the serving cell is above a first threshold. The UE selectively performs the searches and/or measurements when the signal quality of the serving cell is above a second threshold and below the first threshold, and the signal quality of the neighbor cell(s) of the first RAT is above the second threshold or a third threshold.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for wireless communication prioritizes which frequencies to measure when performing cell reselection in a wireless network. A measurement time is distributed among detected cells of a low priority frequency based at least in part on whether each detected cell meets a cell reselection trigger condition.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) receives a circuit switched page from a first base station of a first radio access technology (RAT) and a command instructing the UE to redirect from the first base station to a second RAT. The UE identifies a second base station of the second RAT in response to receiving the command. The second base station is the strongest base station in the second RAT and has a location area code. The UE determines whether the location area code corresponds to a location area code associated with a previous successful redirection attempt from the first base station. The UE redirects to the second RAT based at least in part on the determining.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) including a single receiver tunes away from a first communication entity to perform a communication activity for a second communication entity during a network configured measurement gap associated with a first communication entity. In one instance, the user equipment performs the communication activity for the second SIM when the user equipment determines that a page of the second SIM occurs during the network configured measurement gap. The UE also performs inter radio access technology (IRAT) measurement during the network configured measurement gap.
Abstract:
A method and/or apparatus for wireless communication determines whether circuit switched fall back (CSFB) occurred from a first RAT to a second RAT. A call is handed over from the second RAT to the third RAT and a UE attempts to return directly to the first RAT from the third RAT when the CSFB occurred and the call is released from the third RAT.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes receiving a data grant for multiple retransmission time slots associated with successfully decoded high speed data. The grant is in response to a base station detecting a NACK. The method also includes tuning away from a serving cell during the retransmission time slots.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses relating to wireless communication of a user equipment (UE) are provided including receiving an indication to perform a call origination procedure when communicating in a serving cell, selecting a neighbor cell for performing the call origination procedure based at least in part on receiving the indication and performing the call origination procedure with a wireless network using the neighbor cell after selecting the neighbor cell in response to receiving the indication. Selecting the neighbor cell can include performing reselection or switching subscriptions in a multiple subscription UE while delaying the call origination procedure until after the selection.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) determines an uplink timing advance of a target NodeB, such as an uplink dedicated physical channel (DPCH) transmit timing, during handover transition when the UE receives a handover command without a random access configuration. In one instance, the UE modifies a current timing advance of a source eNodeB based on a difference between an uplink timing of the source eNodeB and a downlink timing of the source eNodeB and a difference between an uplink timing of the target NodeB and a downlink timing of the target NodeB. In another instance, the UE determines the uplink timing advance of the target NodeB based on the modified current uplink timing advance of the source eNodeB.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) reselects to a higher priority cell even when a cell reselection timer of a low priority cell and/or rank based cell expires before a cell reselection timer of the higher priority cell. In one instance, the UE determines an expiration of a first cell reselection timer for the low priority cell and/or an expiration of a second cell reselection timer for the rank based cell while a third cell reselection timer is running, but not expired. The third cell reselection timer corresponds to the high priority based cell. The UE delays performing cell reselection to the low priority or rank based cell until the high priority based cell is evaluated, even when a cell reselection condition has been stratified for the low priority or rank based cell.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication is presented. The method includes receiving a grant insufficient for all hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) processes waiting for retransmission. The grant may be received after a measurement gap. The method also includes discarding one or more HARQ processes having a timing of previous ACK/NACK feedback coinciding with the measurement gap.
