Abstract:
Techniques are described for initializing a Rice parameter used to define codes for coefficient level coding. According to the techniques, the initial value of the Rice parameter is determined for a coefficient group (CG) in a transform block of video data based on statistics of coefficient levels that are gathered for previously coded coefficients of the video data. The statistics may be statistics of absolute values of coefficient levels or remaining absolute values of coefficient levels of previously coded coefficients. A value of the statistics may be initialized to zero at a beginning of a video slice and updated based on coefficient levels coded in each CG of the slice. The statistics may be updated once per CG. In some cases, statistics may be gathered separately for each of a plurality of different categories of CGs that are defined based on characteristics of transform blocks that include the CGs.
Abstract:
A method/apparatus for wireless communication for a multi SIM/multi standby device having a single radio stores an uplink transmission timing of a first radio access technology (RAT) and a first path loss measurement before tuning away from the first RAT to perform an activity with a second RAT. A second path loss of the first RAT is measured after tuning back, and the second path loss measurement is compared to the first path loss measurement. The uplink transmission timing is adjusted based at least in part on the comparison.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for frequency reuse on downlink control channels (DLCCs) are provided. One method can include determining a first number of symbols to support transmission of control information on a DLCC, and configuring a second number of symbols for transmission of the control information on the DLCC, wherein the second number of symbols is greater than the first number of symbols. The method can also include assigning a number of DLCCs based on the second number of symbols, and transmitting control information over an assigned number of DLCCs to achieve an effective reuse factor less than one. Another method can include identifying fractions of bandwidth in a system having cells, and allocating at least one of the cells to at least one of the fractions of bandwidth in a system. Resource element groups allocated to the fractions of bandwidth can be coordinated across cells to provide frequency reuse.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, a client device transmits a request for an initial web page to a proxy server. The proxy server requests the initial web page on behalf of the client device in response to the client device's request. The proxy server then executes a web page redirection procedure that is independent of interaction with the client device and results in the proxy server obtaining web page content. The proxy server delivers the web page content to a proxy client application on the client device along with instructions for simulating, on the client device, the web page redirection procedure between the proxy client application and a mobile web browser on the client device. The proxy client application on the client device then simulates the web page redirection procedure that occurred at the proxy server as instructed.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes rate control techniques that can improve video coding based on a “two-pass” approach. The first pass codes a video sequence using a first set of quantization parameters (QPs) for the purpose of estimating rate-distortion characteristics of the video sequence based on the statistic of the first pass. A second set of QPs can then be defined for a second coding pass. The estimated rate-distortion characteristics of the first pass are used to select Qps for the second pass in a manner that minimizes quality fluctuation between the frames of the video sequence. Furthermore, selection of the second set of QPs may also substantially maximize quality of the frames at the substantially minimized quality flucuation in order to achieve low average frame distortion with the minimized quality fluctuation.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided that may be implemented in a mobile device to determine two or more variations between a baseline probability distribution and two or more probability distributions for signals received from two or more sets of transmitters assigned to two or more regions of a structure. The methods and apparatuses may be further implemented to determine whether the mobile device is located in at least one of the two or more regions based, at least in part, on a comparison of the two or more determined variations.
Abstract:
Systems and methods displaying information from a mobile device are described herein. One embodiment of the disclosure provides a method comprising detecting a wireless connection between a mobile device and an external display device. The method further comprises adjusting a display of the mobile device based on at least the detection of the wireless connection.
Abstract:
Techniques for power control that avoids outer loop wind-up are disclosed. In one aspect, wind-up of a target power level is detected, and the target power level is modified in response. In another aspect, unwinding of the target power level is detected, after which the target power level is determined without considering wind-up. Various other aspects are also presented, including wind-up and unwinding detection procedures, and target power level modification procedures. These aspects have the benefit of reducing the time that transmit power exceeds that which is necessary, thus increasing system capacity and performance, and mitigating misallocation of system resources.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate encoding feedback or control information into a compact payload. In particular, a rank indicator, a precoding matrix indicator and channel quality indicators are packaged into a control channel payload that fits into a single sub-frame. The payload format is determined based at least in part on an antenna configuration or channel quality indicator granularity. In addition, hybrid automatic repeat requests can be included in the payload.
