    Abstract: Power offset signaling techniques for network-assisted interference cancellation and suppression (NAICS) receivers are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment (UE) may comprise at least one radio frequency (RF) transceiver, at least one RF antenna, and logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to receive a radio resource control (RRC) connection control message comprising a RadioResourceConfigDedicated field and perform a radio resource configuration procedure in response to receipt of the RRC connection control message, the RRC connection control message to comprise network-assisted interference cancellation and suppression (NAICS) assistance information that identifies a power offset value for one or more transmissions to the UE over a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) of a serving cell of the UE. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for transmission and reception of SPS communications are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) is configured to receive, in a first subframe, a physical downlink control channel or enhanced physical downlink control channel (PDCCH/EPDCCH) corresponding to semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) activation. The PDCCH/EPDCCH conveys a value of nSCID. The UE configures, based on the SPS activation, a downlink (DL) assignment in a second subframe for receiving an SPS physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) without a corresponding PDCCH/EPDCCH. The UE determines a reference signal sequence corresponding to the SPS PDSCH using nSCID derived from the PDCCH/EPDCCH corresponding to the associated SPS activation. The UE receives the SPS PDSCH in a second subframe. The UE processes the SPS PDSCH based on the reference signal sequence for the SPS PDSCH in the second subframe using the nSCID derived from the PDCCH/EPDCCH corresponding to the associated SPS activation. The UE is configured for transmission mode 10 (TM10).

    Abstract: A Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) location server, user equipment (UE) and evolved Node-B (eNB) are generally described. Information may be transmitted to the UE from the location server. The transmission may be triggered by the location server or another entity requesting the UE location. The information may permit the UE to receive a discovery reference signal (DRS) from at least one eNB. The information may contain an indication of measurements to be performed using the DRS. The UE may measure Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) or Reference Signal Time Difference (RSTD) of the DRS. The UE may send the measurement information to the location server where the UE location is estimated. The UE location may be based on measurements of the DRS and a positioning reference signal (PRS) from one or more eNBs to obtain the Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) or Enhanced Cell ID (ECID).

    Abstract: Technology for an eNodeB operable to perform multiuser non-orthogonal superposition transmissions for multimedia broadcast multicast service (MBMS) is disclosed. The eNodeB can modulate a first physical multicast channel (PMCH) signal for MBMS with a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS). The eNodeB can modulate a second PMCH signal for MBMS with a second MCS. The eNodeB can multiplex the first PMCH signal and the second PMCH signal to form an aggregate PMCH signal. The eNodeB can transmit the aggregate PMCH signal to a plurality of UEs using multiuser non-orthogonal superposition for MBMS, wherein the first PMCH signal in the aggregate PMCH signal is transmitted using physical resource blocks (PRBs) that are partially or fully overlapped in time and frequency with PRBs of the second PMCH signal in the aggregate PMCH signal.
