Abstract: A method and electronic device for improved filtering of mobile communications device physical layer measurement ratios to reduce the variance of reported measurements. First and second signal powers of a cell in a mobile communications network are measured and a filter having a network determined filter coefficient is applied to the first signal power. A signal quality value is determined from the filtered first signal power and the second signal power. A second filter with a network determined filter coefficient may be applied to the second signal power. An example signal quality value comprises a reference signal received quality (RSRQ) comprised of the ratio of reference signal received power (RSRP), multiplied by the number (N) of resource blocks of a carrier received signal strength indicator (RSSI), to the carrier RSSI.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides radio station list management in a wireless receiver. Upon detection of a scan event, a plurality of radio broadcast channels is scanned to detect available radio stations. Available radio stations that fail to meet a preference criterion are identified and removed to form a list of preferred radio stations. The scan event may be generated dependent upon a time, a location of the wireless receiver, or a broadcast signal quality. Preference criteria may include station content classification and signal quality.

Abstract: Described herein are methods and devices for use in telecommunication cell selection and re-selection for which there may be multiple different sizes of transmission bandwidth configurations in a telecommunications operating band. For each of a plurality of channel hypotheses, in which each channel hypothesis has a hypothetical occupied portion and a hypothetical guard band portion, a respective metric is calculated based on a power value for the hypothetical occupied portion and a power value for the hypothetical guard band portion. Based on the metrics determined for the plurality of channel hypotheses, at least one channel hypothesis is selected for further processing for cell selection or re-selection. The metric is calculated by determining a difference between the power value for the hypothetical occupied portion and the power value for the hypothetical guard band portion.

Abstract: A method for channel estimation includes receiving data at a number of frequency intervals in a frequency band over a number of first time intervals. A first set of channel estimates is determined for each pilot symbol within the data over a second time interval comprising at least one first time interval, and time-direction interpolation is performed to determine a second set of channel estimates for a number of data portions in a frequency interval using the first set of channel estimates. The frequency interval comprises a data portion comprising a pilot symbol. Frequency-direction interpolation is performed to determine a third set of channel estimates for each first time interval. The time-direction interpolation and the frequency-direction interpolation can be performed in reverse order with the channel estimates generated by the frequency-direction interpolation being used as inputs for time-direction interpolation.
