Abstract:
A method for adjusting a received channel quality indicator is described. A channel quality indicator is received from a wireless communication device. A first transmission time interval for which the channel quality indicator was generated is determined. The received channel quality indicator is adjusted using an outer loop margin. The outer loop margin is dependent on a transmission mode of the first transmission time interval.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes utilizing a first outer loop for single-stream transmissions when a requested PCI by a UE is within a first set. The utilizing the first outer loop includes utilizing a first outer loop margin to adjust a size of a transport block by a first backoff margin when the UE requests a PCI within the first set. The method further includes utilizing a second outer loop for single-stream transmissions when the requested PCI by the UE is within a second set different from the first set. The utilizing the second outer loop includes utilizing a second outer loop margin to adjust the size of the transport block by a second backoff margin when the UE requests a PCI within the second set.
Abstract:
This innovation relates to systems and methods for multiple carrier allocation in wireless communication networks, and more particularly to allocation and/or de-allocation of one or multiple carriers on the uplink to a high-speed uplink packet access user. A radio network controller can allocate uplink carriers to users based on a plurality of criteria, including but not limited to network loading, channel conditions, and so forth. The allocation messages can be transmitted to the user via layer three messages or layer one signaling.
Abstract:
A method for wireless communications is provided. The method includes applying independent power controls to two or more carriers from a set of high speed packet access signals. The method includes monitoring power across the two or more carriers to determine power levels for the set of high speed packet access signals. The method also includes automatically adjusting at least one of the independent power controls in view of the determined power levels for the set of high speed packet access signals.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for uplink sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission with precoding. A method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a SRS configuration that configures one or more SRS resource sets, each resource set including one or more SRS resources, each SRS resource comprising one or more SRS ports. The UE receives a set of precoders via an indicator, the set of precoders including a precoder associated with each SRS resource and determines one or more precoders to apply for one or more SRS transmissions via one or more of the SRS resources.

Abstract:
Techniques for reporting acknowledgement (ACK) information and channel quality indication (CQI) information in a wireless communication system are described. A user equipment (UE) may be able to receive data from up to two cells with dual-cell operation. The UE may determine CQI information for a first cell, determine CQI information for a second cell, and send the CQI information for both cells on a feedback channel with a single channelization code. The UE may process a control channel from each cell and, if control information is received from the cell, may further process a data channel from the cell to receive data sent to the UE. The UE may determine ACK information for each cell based on processing results for the data and control channels from that cell. The UE may send the ACK information for both cells on the feedback channel with the single channelization code.
Abstract:
A method and system for improving the reception of uplink transmissions in a heterogeneous wireless communication system includes a high-power node such as a macro-cell and a low-power node such as a femto-cell or pico-cell. To address an uplink imbalance where a nearby low-power node power controls a UE such that uplink transmissions of an HSDPA control channel are poorly received at the serving cell, an RNC can instruct the UE to boost its uplink transmit power, remove the UE from soft handover, or disable power control of the UE by the low-power node. To address inter-cell interference, the RNC can limit the UE transmit power and/or enable the victim cell to suppress the interference. Further, a common control channel can be used to power control UEs outside of the convention set of UEs available for power control.
