Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for configuring resources at a device operating in a sleep mode of a wireless network. The device can use at least some of the resources for other purposes, such as scanning neighbor base stations, acquiring system parameters of the wireless network or other networks, etc., based in part on requirements of a current interval of the sleep mode. In an available interval, a serving base station may attempt to communicate with the device, and thus, the device can keep at least one receiver chain tuned to the serving base station while assigning other resources to communicate with other base stations. In an unavailable interval, the device can assign all resources for communicating with the other base stations.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for utilizing proactive feedback information during a handover of a mobile device from a source base station to a target base station. The mobile device may transmit handover messages to the target base station that includes feedback status information, which may include automatic repeat request (ARQ) information elements in some embodiments. The target base station may request that the source base station transmit packets to the target base station based on the received feedback status information. The source base station may transmit handover messages to the mobile device that include feedback status information in some embodiments. Some embodiments may provide for fast resumption of data transmission by utilizing the proactively sent feedback status information from a mobile device to a base station during handover. Some embodiments may reduce the bandwidth for transferring unnecessary data between base stations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining a nearest base station with respect to a mobile station from M base stations. First, the mobile station compares strengths of M signals received from M base stations with each other to determine a first base station, which has a strongest signal among M signals. Then, P strength differences of the strongest signal with P signals selected from the other (M-1) signals respectively are obtained. Finally, the first base station is determined as being the nearest base station when all strength differences are respectively larger than a predetermined value.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mobile station apparatus in a communication system. The communication system comprises a plurality of base stations for providing mobile communication service within a covered communication area. The mobile station apparatus comprises a memory for recording a predetermined access control class and determining which base station the mobile station apparatus is allowed to camp on for conducting mobile communication service, a battery for providing electrical power, a control program, and a power detector for detecting the current power of the battery, so that when the power detector detects that the power is lower than a predetermined low power watermark, the power detector issues a trigger signal. When the control program receives the trigger signal, the control program overwrites the predetermined access control class, so as to allow the mobile station apparatus to conduct mobile communication service through other base stations in the communication area.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for easily and quickly returning to a first radio access technology (RAT) network when handover to a second RAT network is cancelled are provided. The methods and apparatus may involve a mobile station (MS) entering idle mode before handover to the second RAT network is completed and requesting a serving base station (BS) to retain MS service and operational information, as well as service flow state information. In this manner, should handover to the second RAT network be cancelled before completion, a re-entry to the first RAT network may be expeditiously performed using the retained MS information.

Abstract: In a multi-threaded processor mobile device, power consumption is reduced by matching a number of active processing resources with the data rate capability of a serving base station. The number of active resources may be adjusted to increase the amount of time the mobile device is in an all-waits period, where its processors are all idle at the same time. Increasing the all-waits time increases power savings. The mobile device may reduce the number of active resources to reduce power consumption or may increase the number of active resources temporarily in order to increase an all-waits period. The mobile device may also operate in a low power state by adjusting its active resources and operating at a reduced data rate, which is communicated to a base station.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for reducing power consumption of a mobile station (MS) during layer 3 (L3) peer-to-peer (P2P) communications employing a request/response message pair are provided. To save power, the MS may enter a power saving mode after transmitting a request message and initiating a timeout timer for the message pair, wherein the power saving mode may have an interval available for receiving the response message and an unavailable interval. The timeout timer may be suspended during the unavailable interval and resumed during the available interval such that the timeout timer is effectively lengthened.
