Abstract: Techniques for addressing high interference observed by a receiver in a wireless communication system are disclosed. The receiver may observe different interference power levels across a transmission symbol. In an aspect, the receiver applies different weights to different portions of the transmission symbol to account for fluctuation of interference power across the transmission symbol. In another aspect, a transmitter may send a transmission symbol such that a receiver can ignore a portion of a symbol period with high interference. In one design, the transmitter generates a transmission symbol including at least two copies of a signal component. The transmitter transmits at least one copy of the signal component in a portion of the symbol period in which the receiver does not observe high interference. The receiver processes the at least one copy of the signal component to recover data sent in the transmission symbol.

Abstract: Systems, methodologies, and devices are described that can facilitate reducing power consumption associated with mobile devices. A mobile device can utilize a sleep mode controller that can facilitate selecting and/or switching to a desired sleep mode based in part on predefined sleep mode criteria. The sleep modes can include a non-sleep mode, light sleep mode, and/or deep sleep mode. The mobile device can employ an analyzer to evaluate information related to explicit signals, implicit signals, and/or the current sleep mode to determine whether a condition is met based in part on the predefined sleep mode criteria such that a transition to a different sleep mode is to be performed. If such a condition is met, the sleep mode controller can facilitate transitioning from the current sleep mode to a different sleep mode to facilitate reducing power consumption by the mobile device.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate signaling and/or utilizing uplink delay budget related feedback in a wireless communication environment. A lowest delay budget associated with a most urgent Radio Link Control (RLC) service data unit (SDU) retained in a buffer of an access terminal can be determined. Further, a portion of a Medium Access Control (MAC) header (e.g., two reserved bits, . . . ) can be configured to carry a code related to a delay threshold corresponding to the lowest delay budget. Moreover, the MAC header can be transferred to a base station. The base station can detect the code carried by the portion of the MAC header, and a delay threshold can be determined as a function of the detected code (e.g., utilizing a radio bearer specific mapping). According to an example, the access terminal can be scheduled for uplink transmission as a function of the delay threshold.

Abstract: Techniques for utilizing multiple carriers to substantially improve transmission capacity are described. For multi-carrier operation, a terminal receives an assignment of multiple forward link (FL) carriers and at least one reverse link (RL) carrier. The carriers may be arranged in at least one group, with each group including at least one FL carrier and one RL carrier. The terminal may receive packets on the FL carrier(s) in each group and may send acknowledgements for the received packets via the RL carrier in that group. The terminal may send channel quality indication (CQI) reports for the FL carrier(s) in each group via the RL carrier in that group. The terminal may also transmit data on the RL carrier(s). The terminal may send designated RL signaling (e.g., to originate a call) on a primary RL carrier and may receive designated FL signaling (e.g., for call setup) on a primary FL carrier.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are described for power headroom reporting. A mobile device may identify a transmit power associated with each of a number of independently power controlled channels on one or multiple carriers configured for use by the mobile device. The transmit power may relate to one channel that is an uplink control channel, and one or more additional channels that are uplink shared channels. The identified transmit power of one channel (e.g., the uplink control channel) may be a virtual transmit power, while other identified transmit powers may be measured transmit powers for actual transmissions. The identified transmit powers may be added up, and the power headroom available for the mobile device may be calculated using the accumulated transmit powers. The mobile device may transmit a power headroom report to a base station.

Abstract: System(s) and method(s) are provided for inter-cell interference management in a wireless communication system. A base station perform interference management by conveying and receiving load indicator messages over a backhaul communication link to disparate neighboring base stations that serve interfering mobile stations. Reporting of load indicators takes place according to a reporting policy that is event-based, and accounts for variations of interference metrics over available time-frequency resources. Communication with neighboring base stations is limited to a monitoring interference set, which can be determined statically, according to deployment characteristics of a wireless network, or the set can be adjusted dynamically according to a set of received UL signals or a set of DL CQI measurement reports. Reporting policy and interference set can be autonomously adapted to optimize backhaul traffic as well as interference control.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate system frame number (SFN) indication and identification during a random access procedure (e.g., associated with a handover). As described herein, a target cell can configure one or more Random Access Responses (RARs) designated for transmission to a terminal during the access phase of a handover to include the SFN of the target cell. Techniques are further described herein by which the target cell can include SFN information in a sub-header associated with a RAR, in the payload of a RAR, and/or in other appropriate manners. In addition, the target cell can configure one or more flags of the RAR to indicate the presence of SFN information. Upon receiving a RAR with embedded SFN information, a terminal can utilize the SFN for operations such as frequency hopping or uplink resource configuration as described herein.

Abstract: When enabled with common reference signal interference cancellation, a user equipment (UE) may still compute a channel state feedback value with consideration of any canceled interfering neighboring signals. When the neighboring cells are determined to be transmitting data during the time for which the channel state feedback value is being computed, the UE is able to derive the channel state feedback value considering those canceled interfering signals. The UE determines whether each neighboring cell is transmitting during the designated time either by obtaining signals that indicate the transmission schedule of the neighboring cells or by detecting the transmission schedule, such as based on the power class of the neighboring cells. If the UE determines that the neighboring cells are transmitting data during this time period, the UE will compute the channel state feedback value including consideration of the canceled interfering signals.

Abstract translation: 当使用公共参考信号干扰消除时，用户设备（UE）仍可以考虑任何取消的干扰相邻信号来计算信道状态反馈值。 当在正在计算信道状态反馈值的时间内确定相邻小区正在发送数据时，UE能够导出考虑到那些被消除的干扰信号的信道状态反馈值。 UE通过获得指示相邻小区的传输调度的信号或者通过基于相邻小区的功率等级来检测传输调度来确定在指定时间期间每个相邻小区是否正在发射。 如果UE在该时间段期间确定相邻小区正在发送数据，则UE将计算包括考虑被消除的干扰信号的信道状态反馈值。
