摘要:
A novel and useful autonomous association mechanism for use in user equipment (UE) network connections in one or more cellular communications systems. The handover process is optimized by improving the selection of target base stations and optimizing the discontinuity period from the time of disconnection from a serving base station and connection to a target base station and by establishing anonymous bidirectional communications with base stations. The mechanism facilitates multiple cell association in a network unaware manner while preserving single endpoint connectivity. The UE does not need to negotiate for or receive pre-allocated opportunities from the network for making associations with neighboring base stations. Association opportunities are created by the UE autonomously in accordance with UE activity patterns. Association opportunities are used to exchange preliminary information needed for handover between the UE and candidate base stations over the same or a plurality of access technologies. The information includes any parameter that can affect the handover process, e.g., link quality, etc.
摘要:
A novel and useful apparatus for and method of multicast and broadcast service (MBS) macro-diversity based information processing for use in MBS enabled wireless communication systems. MBS allocations and transmissions from base stations are not coordinated and independent of each other. The characteristics of the MBS signal, such as waveform, modulation, timing and frequency domain, used for transmissions in one or more MBS zones by a base station are uncoordinated and unsynchronized with respect to transmissions in other base stations or MBS zones. They all, however, contain the same information content and relate to the same CID (MCID and/or SA). The MS, using multiple detection techniques, uses time and frequency diversity reception techniques to combine MBS transmissions received from multiple base stations. Base stations and/or the network inform mobile stations of whether or not uncoordinated MBS data transmission is supported on the network via a TLV transmitted during the MBS connection setup process. If supported, mobile stations can receive multiple MBS data signals, combining them to generate a single MBS data output stream.

The application layer of a first wireless device may be configured to receive a ranging request indication from a MAC layer of the first wireless device, determine whether the MAC layer should respond to the ranging request, and send a ranging response to the MAC layer with an indication of whether to respond to the ranging request. The MAC layer may be configured to decode a ranging set-up request from a second wireless device, where the ranging set-up request comprises time slots. If an auto-response is set to false, send a ranging request indication to the application layer and receive from the application layer a ranging response, and if the auto-response is set to true or the ranging response indicates the MAC layer should respond to the ranging set-up request, select a time slot, and encode a ranging response with an indication of the selected time slot.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to adaptively changing availability of neighbor awareness networking (NAN) devices for post-NAN activities. In some embodiments, a first NAN enabled device may generate a NAN service discovery frame. The first NAN enabled device may transmit the NAN service discovery frame to a plurality of NAN enabled devices during a discovery window of the NAN. A request frame from a second NAN enabled device may be received based at least in part on transmitting the NAN service discovery frame. A response frame may be transmitted to the second NAN enabled device. A second NAN service discovery frame may be generated and include an updated availability bitmap based at least in part on data received in the request frame from the second NAN enabled device. The first NAN enabled device may transmit the second NAN service discovery frame.

Certain embodiments herein relate to a dynamic pre-association between Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN) discovery windows and fine timing measurement (FTM) communications. A wireless station may trigger An FTM procedure during a NAN discovery window by the transmission of a NAN Service Discovery Frame (SDF). In addition to the FTM communications, an indication of a discovery window for which a subsequent FTM communication is expected to occur is also transmitted. In some embodiments, an FTM range report may also be transmitted with the indication.

An approach is provided for managing a wireless network access point beacon. The approach involves determining to one or more of (1) cause, at least in part, a beacon pointer associated with a beacon of a wireless network access point to be transmitted and (2) cause, at least in part, a beacon schedule associated with the beacon of the wireless network access point to be adjusted based, at least in part, on a derivation of one or more other beacon schedules associated with one or more other beacons of one or more other wireless network access points. The determination to cause the adjustment of the beacon schedule is based, at least in part, on a received indication of a potential conflict between the beacon and the one or more other beacons.

Embodiments for providing initiator-conditioned fine timing measurement service request are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a range management module is arranged to initiate transmission of a fine timing measurement request message for determining a timing measurement to a responding device. Timing measurement information is received in response to the transmission of the fine timing measurement request message. The timing measurement information is received according to the condition instructions provided in the fine timing measurement request message. A timing measurement is calculated based on the timing of receiving the timing measurement information.
