摘要:
Systems, apparatus and methods for facilitating identification and/or acquisition of an access point are provided. Methods can include transmitting or receiving access point information (“API”) indicative of an identification of the access point (“AP”). The API can be provided at the AP through hardwiring or receipt of configuration information input by a user or transmitted to the AP by a network operator through Over-The-Air (“OTA”) signaling. The API can be computer-readable and, in some embodiments, the API can also be human-readable. The API can be transmitted on a paging channel from which user equipment (“UE”) can receive information. The frequency at which the API is transmitted can be fixed, dynamic and/or configurable. Upon receipt of the API, acquisition of the AP is attempted if the AP is determined to be a permitted AP.

摘要:
An access terminal scans for nearby access points and maintains a candidate list of access point with which the access terminal may associate in the event the access terminal's communication with its current access point deteriorates for some reason. This search procedure may be performed in a proactive manner whereby the access terminal repeatedly performs scans and updates its list of candidate access points when it is powered on. In some aspects, the search procedure used by the access terminal may be based on a state of the wireless device. In addition, different states of the access terminal may be associated with different optimization criteria.
摘要:
Devices and methods are provided for facilitating selection and acquisition of an access point (AP) base station via implementation of a system selection file that may include a preferred roaming list (PRL), a public land mobile network (PLMN) database, or the like. The selection attempts may be limited to specific preferred systems, such as, for example, the AP base station. The system selection file includes identification parameters of the preferred systems. In one embodiment, the identification parameters include at least one of a system identifier (SID) and a network identifier (NID) for a given one of the systems.

摘要:
Devices and methods are provided for system selection from a plurality of wireless system access technologies, such as a first group (e.g., 3GPP2 technologies) and a second group (e.g., 3GPP technologies). In one embodiment, the method may involve storing identification information pertaining to the first group in a database, wherein the database may concern the priority of ones of the access technologies pertaining to the second group. The method may also involve selecting a preferred access technology from one of the first and second groups based at least in part on the identification information stored in the database.

摘要:
A wireless device is configured to automatically resign from an ad hoc network. In some aspects the resignation may be based on automatic detection of inactivity associated with the ad hoc network. For example, resignation from the ad hoc network may be based on absence of uplink and downlink traffic at a wireless device, absence of open sockets at a wireless device, or a lack of beacon transmissions by other wireless devices. In the latter case, a lack of beacon transmissions by other wireless devices in the ad hoc network may be indicated by the transmission of a relatively large number of beacons in succession by a wireless device.
