Abstract: A signal-to-interference target is adjusted multiple times within a transmission time interval. For example, the signal-to-interference target may be adjusted at the slot level. According to some aspects of the disclosure, the signal-to-interference target may be adjusted based on early detection of the transport format being transmitted by the network. For example, the signal-to-interference target may be quickly adjusted at each slot upon detection of the kind of transport format present during that slot. Advantageously, such an approach may reduce the transient time that it takes for the signal-to-interference target to be updated to a new transport format.

Abstract: Access terminals are adapted to facilitate closed-loop transmit diversity in wireless communications systems. According to one example, an access terminal can calculate an uplink error rate for even slot indexes and a separate uplink error rate for odd slot indexes in an uplink frame to be transmitted. A respective downlink error rate can be estimated for an in-phase (I) component and a quadrature-phase (Q) component of a downlink transmission. The access terminal may further estimate a phase-related weight that was applied to the downlink transmission based on the downlink error rates and the uplink error rates. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.

Abstract: Techniques for uplink transmit power command (ULTPC) rejection threshold optimization in WCDMA for power control algorithm 2 (PCA2) are described. Uplink transmit power control commands may be received on a five-slot interval. The uplink transmit power control commands may be decoded for each of the five slots. The decoded uplink transmit power control commands may be compared for each of the five slots to a threshold. The threshold may be optimized to minimize overall transmit power control decision error. A bit decision may be made for each of the five slots based on the comparison and an overall transmit power control command may be determined based on the bit decision for each of the five slots over the five-slot interval.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may obtain a measurement of a radio condition from a radio frequency signal received at a first antenna and enable receive diversity for further measurements of the radio condition when a metric of the radio condition does not meet a predefined threshold value. A probability of occurrence of an out-of-service state may be reduced by measuring the radio condition using further measurements using receiver diversity. The further measurements of the radio condition may be based on whether one version of the signal has greater energy than the other versions of the signal. The further measurements of the radio condition may obtained by combining received versions of the signal utilizing combination diversity to obtain a combined signal strength/energy.

Abstract: The present disclosure presents a method and apparatus for reducing power consumption during a voice communication in a user equipment (UE). For example, the method may include receiving a plurality of frames associated with the voice communication. Further, such an example method may include determining whether a frame pattern based at least on the received plurality of frames corresponds to a transition from a speech burst period to a non-speech period, and disabling a portion of a receiver subsystem at the UE for at least a portion of a frame associated with the non-speech period. As such, the power consumption in a UE may be reduced.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for initializing an equalizer in a diversity receiver. In one aspect, the initialization includes estimating a channel impulse response (CIR) for each receiver chain of the diversity receiver; determining noise power estimates for each receiver chain based on the CIRs; and adaptively adjusting equalizer taps of each receiver chain based on the noise power estimates. In one aspect, the adaptive adjusting of the equalizer taps is based on scaling the CIR and covariance metrics for the receiver chain with higher noise power by a scale factor determined from the noise power estimates. In another aspect, the adaptive adjusting of the equalizer taps is based adaptive conditioning on the diagonal of the covariance matrix.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for avoiding power scaling and controlling transmit power in uplink data transmission are provided. If a user equipment (UE) would be transmit-power limited when transmitting data concurrently on an uplink high speed dedicated physical control channel (HS-DPCCH) and an uplink data channel, the UE may forgo building data for transmission on the uplink data channel to avoid power scaling. If the UE would be transmit-power limited when transmitting data concurrently on an HS-DPCCH and a dedicated physical control channel (DPCCH), the UE may reduce the transmission power of a portion of the data transmitted on the DPCCH to avoid power scaling. The UE may also boost transmission power of a negative acknowledge transmission above network-specified power level.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide an apparatus and methods for detecting and handling a spurious Dedicated Physical Channel (DPCH) of a cell in an active set from a mobile station side. A user equipment determines a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) for each channel of a plurality of channels associated with cells maintained in an active set. A spurious DPCH has the lowest SIR among the plurality of channels. The user equipment puts the detected spurious DPCH in an exclusion mode in which the spurious DPCH is excluded from at least one of channel decoding or SIRE calculation, while maintaining the cell associated with the spurious DPCH in the active set.
