Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes receiving an uplink grant for one or more pending HARQ processes waiting to perform a retransmission. The method also includes selecting each pending HARQ process that has not received a NACK. The method further includes terminating an oldest selected HARQ process when the uplink grant is insufficient to perform the retransmission for the plurality of pending HARQ processes.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes recording an absolute system frame number (SFN) of a target radio access technology (RAT) and/or recording a relative system frame number (SFN) difference between a serving radio access technology (RAT) and the target RAT. A transmission time interval (TTI) boundary, is determined after redirection, based at least in part on the recorded absolute frame number (SFN) and/or the recorded relative system frame number (SFN) difference.
Abstract:
A UE is configured to collect multiple absolute radio frequency channel numbers (ARFCNs) in parallel via a wideband receiver during a transmission gap. Inter-radio access technology (IRAT) measurements are performed based on the collected AFRCN samples.
Abstract:
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method of wireless communication is provided. The method may include starting a first timer for changing to a first network cell with a first radio access technology (RAT) and starting a second timer for changing to a second network cell with a second RAT. Further, the method may include changing to the first network cell when the first timer expires. The method may also include determining that the second network cell satisfies a cell change condition and continuing to run the second timer after the change to the first network cell in response to the second network cell satisfying the cell change condition. The method may further include changing to the second network cell after starting a third timer for a third network cell with the first RAT, a duration of the second timer being longer than a duration of the third timer.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may scale down a signal strength of a radio access technology (RAT) cell in a report to a serving cell to avoid multiple connection attempts to the same radio access technology cell. The UE may initiate a predefined timer, called a target cell timer, on which the scaling down of the reported signal strength of the particular RAT cell is based. The timer is initiated when the UE returns back to the serving cell after failure to access a top ranked RAT neighbor cell.
Abstract:
A measurement reporting method reduces battery waste. A UE receives a list of GSM neighbor cells and measures the signal strength of each of the GSM cells in the list. The UE performs base station identity code (BSIC) confirm/reconfirm procedures only for the cells having a signal strength above a threshold.

Abstract:
A method of wireless communication adjusts the transmit power for high speed data communications. A UE determines whether a random access channel is configured on an uplink traffic time slot. When the random access channel is configured on the uplink traffic time slot, the UE transmits a high speed data channel with adjusted transmit (TX) power based at least in part on transmit power used for a scheduling request.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communications includes determining a period of time to trigger inter-radio access technology (IRAT) cell reselection. The method also includes adjusting the period of time accordingly, in which the adjusting is based on a target cell signal strength, the target cell belonging to a different RAT than a source cell. The period of time may also be determined based on the source cell signal strength and/or target cell signal strength, and adjusted accordingly.
Abstract:
The scheduling rate of the synchronization channel (SCH) base station identity code (BSIC) is adapted based on target cell signal metric such as, the signal quality and/or signal strength. The scheduling rate is decreased when the target cell metric is below a first threshold value and is increased when the target cell metric is above a second threshold value. The scheduling rate may also be adapted based on a serving cell signal metric.
