Abstract:
A Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDS) user equipment (UE) which provides enhanced caller ID capabilities. In particular, the UE may be a Dual SIM Dual Active (DSDA) UE capable of using two SIMs and two radios so as to maintain two active voice calls simultaneously. The UE may include a single transmitter and one or more receivers. Mechanisms are described such that, when a first voice call is active, desirable services such as receiving and presenting caller ID information associated with this second call are provided to the user of the UE.
Abstract:
A method for selectively reading system information is provided. The method can include a wireless communication device reading system information broadcast by a first cell in a cell group. The read system information can include cell group information identifying the first cell as a member of the cell group and indicating membership of the cell group. The method can further include the wireless communication device moving to a second cell; determining based on the cell group information that the second cell is a member of the cell group; and in response to determining that the second cell is also a member of the cell group, reading only a portion of system information broadcast by the second cell. The read portion of system information can include the system information broadcast by the second cell that is different from the system information broadcast by the first cell.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, a user equipment device (UE) implements improved communication methods which include radio resource time multiplexing, dynamic sub-frame allocation, and UE transmit duty cycle control. In some embodiments, the UE may communicate with base stations using radio frames that include multiple sub-frames, transmit information regarding allocation of a portion of the sub-frames of a respective radio frame for each of a plurality of the radio frames, and transmit and receive data using allocated sub-frames and not using unallocated sub-frames. In some embodiments, the UE may operate according to a sub-frame allocation based on its current power state. The UE may transmit information to the base station and receive the sub-frame allocation based on at least the information. In some embodiments, the UE may switch transmit duty cycles based on an occurrence of a condition at the UE. The UE may inform the network of the switch.

Abstract:
A wireless communication system is presented in which user equipment (UE) performs non-intra-frequency (NIF) cell reselection. The NIF cell reselection process can: detect, on a discontinues reception (DRX) cycle, whether a NIF for a second cell has passed a second reselection threshold; perform, on the DRX cycle, additional checks or measurements to determine whether a higher priority NIF for a third cell has passed a third reselection threshold; and continue a cell reselection process for the second cell and the third cell. The NIF cell reselection techniques can help ensure that the UE reselects to higher priority cells without expending an unnecessary amount power.
Abstract:
A method for providing indication of an SRVCC handover is disclosed. The method can include a first wireless communication device participating in a voice call with a second wireless communication device via a connection between the first wireless communication device and a first network. The method can further include the first wireless communication device determining a condition indicative of an impending SRVCC handover of the first wireless communication device from the first network to a legacy network. In response to the condition, the method can additionally include the first wireless communication device formatting a message including an indication that the first wireless communication device is going to perform the SRVCC handover and sending the message to the second wireless communication device prior to performance of the SRVCC handover.
Abstract:
A connection with a network that includes a base station (BS) may be established by a user device (UE) via a wireless connection, for conducting communications using semi persistent scheduling (SPS) in a connected discontinuous reception (C-DRX) mode. The SPS transmit periodicity may be adjusted with respect to the SPS activation command and the SPS interval UL (for uplink). Data may then be transmitted during the C-DRX On-Duration periods according to the determined SPS transmit periodicity. In some embodiments, the SPS transmit periodicity is adjusted such that following a first C-DRX On-Duration period when an SPS activation command is received, SPS data transmission occurs a specified number of subframes earlier during each subsequent C-DRX On-Duration period than in the first C-DRX On-Duration period. The SPS data transmission in each subsequent C-DRX On-Duration period may take place as soon as the UE device wakes up during the On-Duration period.
Abstract:
Methods to control reconfiguration of multiple radio access bearers in a mobile wireless device connected to a wireless network are described. The mobile wireless device is connected to the wireless network through a voice connection and a data connection simultaneously. The data connection is concurrently active with the voice connection. Transmission of one or more signaling messages for the data connection is delayed until the voice connection terminates. Representative signaling messages include messages that reconfigure a radio access bearer supporting the data connection and messages estimated to exceed a pre-determined transmission time interval.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for intelligent scheduling in hybrid networks based on client identity. For example, in one embodiment, the hybrid networks are cellular networks (e.g., LTE and CDMA 1X), and a cellular device uses a single-radio solution to support circuit-switched calls on a CDMA 1X network and packet-switched calls on LTE. Periodically, the cellular device tunes away from LTE and monitors CDMA 1X activity, and vice versa. The LTE network can infer the cellular device's tune away schedule, based on the device's identity, and the paging schedule algorithm of the CDMA 1X network.
Abstract:
In an example method, a first device determines a first Zadoff-Chu sequence having a first root value, and a second Zadoff-Chu sequence having a second root value, where the first second root value is an inverse modulus of the first root value. Further, the first device generates a wireless signal including (i) a first preamble generated based, at least in part, on the first Zadoff-Chu sequence, (ii) a second preamble generated based, at least in part, on the second Zadoff-Chu sequence, and (iii) a payload. Further, the first device transmits the wireless signal from the first device to a second device.
