Abstract: Methods and apparatus for waking a mobile station (MS) from a power saving mode to receive a media access control (MAC) management message (e.g., DCD/UCD, MOB_NBR-ADV, and SII-ADV) the MS has not yet received. The MS may wake from the power saving mode after detecting a mismatch between a set of media access control (MAC) management message parameters last received by the MS and the information found in an enhanced broadcast control pointer information element (BCP-IE) transmitted in a downlink map (DL-MAP). In this manner, the MS may be prevented from waking up unnecessarily, thereby providing high power efficiency.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for indicating a base station's amount of ranging traffic to a mobile station (MS) and for selecting a base station (BS) for performing ranging based on the ranging traffic indication are provided. This notification may occur via a ranging loading parameter, such as a ranging loading factor (RLF) indicating the ratio of used ranging slots to available ranging slots, transmitted as a new TLV (Type-Length-Value) within the Uplink Channel Descriptor (UCD) of a (potential) serving BS or in the UCD of a Neighbor Advertisement (MOB_NBR-ADV) message for a neighbor BS. By selecting a BS with a certain level of unused ranging slots, the MS may exponentially decrease the ranging overhead (i.e., the average waiting time for the ranging procedures) when compared to a conventional MS that does not consider a BS's ranging overload when trying to perform ranging with the BS.

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.

Abstract: Methods and systems for utilizing a multicast/broadcast connection identifier (CID) scheduling message in an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) or orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) frame in an effort to bypass at least a portion of the Media Access Control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU) parsing of the frame are provided. By bypassing at least a portion of the MAC PDU parsing of the OFDM/OFDMA frame (which may be in accordance with one or more standards of the IEEE 802.16 family of standards), a particular user terminal need not spend a lot of overhead in the CID filtering process, determining which MAC PDUs are intended to be processed by the MAC of that particular user terminal. Furthermore, for certain embodiments, a user terminal may power down related circuitry during the terminal's bypassing time period(s) of the OFDM/OFDMA frame in an effort to save power.

Abstract: A radiation detection method and apparatus thereof for estimating radiation power received by the mobile station. The locations of nearby base stations and the mobile station are obtained from the broadcast system messages and the location service provided by the service provider, and based on the location information, the radiation power is estimated according to the distances between the base stations and the mobile station. In addition, the radiation estimation process also utilizes the radiation power of monitored base stations constantly measured by the mobile station for cell selection to determine the effects of interference. Based on a preset safety value and the estimated radiation power, the radiation detection device of the present invention automatically issues an alert when entering a high radiation environment.
