Abstract:
A method and apparatus for initiating communications on a shared channel in a mobile communication system are provided. A user equipment transmits an uplink signal for requesting communications on the shared channel to a Node B, and waits for a delay duration without monitoring a downlink after transmitting the uplink signal. When the delay duration has elapsed, the user equipment monitors the downlink during a valid period and determines whether a downlink signal responding to the uplink signal is received in a transmission time interval within the valid period. When the downlink signal is received in the valid period, the user equipment transmits and receives data on the shared channel.
Abstract:
A method, performed by a mobile management entity (MME), for providing a voice call service to a user equipment (UE) in a mobile communication system and the MME are provided. The method includes receiving, from a mobile management entity (MME), a first message for paging to provide the voice call service to the UE; and sending, to the MME, a second message including a cause associated with a domain change from a packet switching (PS) domain to a circuit switching (CS) domain, wherein, if the MME receives the second message, a third message for requesting suspension of a bearer to provide a service for the UE is sent to a gateway in the PS domain.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor. The image sensor comprises a first separation zone in a substrate, the first separation zone defining first and second pixel regions arranged in a first direction, the first separation zone including first parts substantially parallel extending in the first direction, and the substrate including a first active region vertically overlapping one of the first parts and a second active region vertically overlapping another of the first parts. The image sensor further comprises first and second photoelectric conversion devices arranged in the first direction on at least one of the first and second pixel regions in the substrate, and a source follower gate on the first active region of the substrate.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for providing, setting, maintaining, and releasing a packet data network (PDN) connection on the basis of a local area in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving the PDN subscription information on the basis of the local area from a business operator server, inspecting whether the current location information for the terminal exists in the PDN subscription information on the basis of the local area, and starting a procedure for setting the PDN on the basis of the local area when the current location information exists therein.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting packet data units Packet Data Units (PDUs) at a PDU transmitter in a communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting a first PDU comprising a PDU header and a data portion, receiving Negative Acknowledgement NACK information for the first PDU, segmenting the first PDU to form one or more PDU segments if a size of a second PDU for retransmission is smaller than a size of the first PDU, wherein each of the one or more PDU segment comprises a PDU segment header and a data portion, and transmitting the one or more PDU segment to a PDU receiver.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving CQI in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving, by a mobile station, CQI report resource information, CQI period information, and Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle information; discontinuously monitoring, by the mobile station, a channel based on the DRX cycle information; and reporting a CQI to a network, based on the CQI report resource information, the CQI period information, and the DRX cycle information
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for providing a multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS) to a user equipment (UE) by a base station in a mobile communication system. The method includes transmitting, to a terminal, a first message including first information about a scheduling period and an offset; transmitting, to the terminal, control information notifying of a change of a second message; transmitting, to the terminal, the second message including second information about at least one multimedia broadcast/multicast service (MBMS), based on the first information about the scheduling period and the offset; and transmitting, to the terminal, data of the at least one MBMS. The second information about the at least one MBMS includes an identification of the at least one MBMS.
