Abstract:
A UE may receive, via a first communication link that uses a first radio access technology (RAT), information that identifies a threshold associated with a second communication link that uses a second RAT. The UE may monitor one or more communications on the second communication link. The UE may determine whether a parameter associated with the second communication link satisfies the threshold based at least in part on monitoring the one or more communications on the second communication link. The UE may provide a message via the first communication link when the parameter associated with the second communication link satisfies the threshold.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may predict a traffic pattern, as a predicted traffic pattern, for one or more time intervals of the wireless communication device, wherein the predicted traffic pattern is predicted based at least in part on a traffic type of traffic transmitted or received by the wireless communication device and a connected mode discontinuous reception (CDRx) configuration of the wireless communication device; and selectively configure activation or deactivation of one or more features of the wireless communication device according to the predicted traffic pattern. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for measurement reporting. The method comprises receiving, via a first radio access technology (RAT), a first request for one or more measurement reports, translating the first request to a group of second requests for measurement associated with at least a second RAT, and transmitting at least one of the second requests to initiate gathering measurements associated with the second RAT for use in generating the one or more measurement reports in response to the first request.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus determines an observed bit rate based on uplink transmissions of the UE, estimates an available link capacity for the UE, selects an estimate factor, and estimates available uplink throughput for future uplink transmissions of the UE as a function of the observed bit rate, the estimated available link capacity, and the estimate factor.
Abstract:
A method of determining a distance estimate between a mobile device and a wireless transceiver communicating with the mobile device on at least one multi-carrier signal includes: receiving at least one multi-carrier signal; selecting at least one carrier signal from the at least one multi-carrier signal; measuring a signal characteristic of the at least one carrier signal from the at least one multi-carrier signal; and determining the distance estimate between the mobile device and the wireless transceiver based at least partially upon the signal characteristic.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication at a UE. A user equipment (UE) may establish a connection to a serving cell and monitor channel conditions for the serving cell and neighboring cells. Based on the channel conditions, the UE may determine to read the system information of a non-serving neighbor. The UE may then read the system information of the non-serving neighbor cell while still connected to the serving cell. In some cases, the UE may store the system information in a database. When the time comes for the UE to access the neighbor cell (e.g., if the link to the serving cell fails) the UE may proceed with access procedures without delay using the stored system information.
Abstract:
Techniques to support operation in a compressed mode and/or a continuous packet connectivity (CPC) mode are described. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may obtain an assignment of enabled subframes for the CPC mode and an assignment of transmission gaps for the compressed mode. The transmission gaps may be aligned with idle times between the enabled subframes. The UE may exchange data during enabled subframes not overlapping the transmission gaps and may skip data exchanges during enabled subframes overlapping the transmission gaps. The UE may make cell measurements during the transmission gaps. In another aspect, the UE may obtain enabled subframes and skipped subframes, exchange data during enabled subframes not corresponding to the skipped subframes, and skip data exchanges during the skipped subframes. In yet another aspect, the UE may receive orders on a shared control channel to quickly enable and disable the compressed mode.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for controlling downlink data transfer during carrier aggregation. For example, a method may control a secondary component carrier downlink (DL) in a wireless communication network using carrier aggregation. The method may include detecting, by a mobile entity, an event indicating a resource constraint at the mobile entity related to a data transmission from a base station to the mobile entity on a secondary component carrier of a carrier aggregation enabled connection. The method may include, in response to detecting the event, controlling the data transmission by signaling a status of the secondary component carrier DL to the base station.
