摘要:
Power savings may be achieved in a packet-switched system by grouping packets. For example, packets may be queued while a portion of the system is in a suspended state. In some embodiments, power savings are provided in a wireless system to increase talk time. Here, packets may be queued while one or more components such as a radio of the wireless device are in a suspended state.

Systems and methodologies are described herein that facilitate efficient transfer of quality of service (QoS) context during inter-radio access technology (RAT) handovers. In particular, techniques are described herein for establishing rules for whether a user equipment unit (UE) or an associated network should establish QoS for a mixed-mode application, identifying flow to bearer mappings when translating QoS across an inter-RAT handover, mapping QoS parameters of respective RATs, mitigating QoS depreciation upon multiple handovers, performing one or more actions if QoS is not acceptable in a new RAT, maintaining QoS during tunnel mode, and handling scenarios in which a UE moves between a RAT using network-initiated QoS and a RAT using UE-initiated QoS.

Apparatus and methods are described herein for managing data network connections. When a gateway or user equipment receives a message indicating the active data network connections associated with the sending party, the gateway or user equipment checks a locally stored list of active data network connections to determine whether there is a match. If at least one active data network connection does not match, the receiving device sends a message to the sending party indicating the locally stored active data network connections.

Multi-mode system selection (MMSS) enables a mobile station (MS) to prioritize MS preference for selecting particular radio air-interfaces (AI) across multiple standards (e.g., 3GPP, 3GPP2, WiMAX). 3GPP2 is developing a scheme MMSS-3GPP2 which is usually referred to as simply ‘MMSS.’ Other schemes exist e.g., proprietary ones (e.g., internal ePRL), an MMSS-3GPP based on the PLMN with Access Technologies of non-3GPP systems. MMSS OTASP messages and parameters are being defined in 3GPP2 to allow the carriers to provision MMSS parameters to the mobile device. With MMSS, the mobile can select and hence acquire cdma2000 and non-cdma2000 systems (e.g., LTE, WiMAX) based on carrier's preferences.
摘要:
Techniques to configure quality of service (QoS) and utilize radio resources for a call in a WLAN are described. In an aspect, a station ensures that an access point in the WLAN is suitable for receiving service prior to performing registration to receive services via the WLAN. In another aspect, the station first requests for radio resources for traffic flows, then requests for radio resources for signaling flows, and sends signaling as best effort traffic if radio resources are not granted for the signaling flows. In yet another aspect, the station aggregates QoS for multiple applications and requests for radio resources based on the aggregated QoS. In yet another aspect, the station releases extra radio resources corresponding to the difference between the QoS granted by the WLAN and the QoS proposed by a remote terminal for the call. In yet another aspect, the station requests for the same QoS or lower from a new access point during handoff.
摘要:
Systems and methods for automatically providing different levels of Quality of Service (QoS) to applications in a communication network having various content providers. Typically, content is provided to applications that are unable to specify applicable QoS. A service node is provided to coordinate transfer of data to the applications. The service node further cooperates with an access terminal running the applications to specify the QoS.
摘要:
Devices and methods are provided for supporting single carrier Radio Transmission Technology (1×RTT) and High Rate Packet Data (HRPD) neighbor lists over LTE, thereby enabling efficient scans for 3GPP2 neighbors with minimal interruption to the LTE operations both when idle or when in-traffic. In one embodiment, the method may involve accessing a neighbor list, each neighboring system in the list being prioritized based at least in part on whether the access terminal (AT) supports a hybrid mode. For example, the method may involve selecting the 3GPP2 system to handin to based at least in part on the neighbor list.
摘要:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate performing idle handoff in a wireless communication environment. Signal quality of a pilot received from a base station can be measured, and a type (e.g., femto, macro, . . . ) of the base station from which the pilot is received can be identified. According to an example, when the type of the base station is identified as being a femto cell base station, the base station can be recognized as being either preferred or non-preferred. Further, a linger timer can be initiated when the signal quality of the pilot exceeds an entry threshold and the base station is identified as a femto cell base station. Moreover, idle handoff to the base station can be performed upon expiration of the linger timer as a function of at least one subsequent measurement of signal quality of the pilot received from the base station.
摘要:
Transmission of broadcast streams in multiple sectors is synchronized based on time stamps or sequence numbers in data packets received at the base station. The base stations use the time stamps to calculate a frame transmission start time and start position for the data packets. The base station monitors the packet latency of data within its buffer based on the time stamp in the data packets and initiates a resynchronization procedure if the packet latency exceeds predetermined bounds.
摘要:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate providing neighbor lists to devices comprising pilot frequencies of access points in a specific geographic region. Using the neighbor list, the devices can discover the access points based on scanning the frequencies for the pilot and can determine additional communication parameters from the discovery or based on a subsequent request resulting from discovery. In this regard, access point information need not be provisioned to the devices for locating the access points, selecting/reselecting the access points, providing the access points in a list to an interface, locating the device using triangulation based on GPS position of the access points, and/or the like.
