Abstract:
A method for wireless communications is provided. The method includes generating two or more uplink carrier signals across a wireless network and generating at least one active signal set for the wireless network. The method also includes generating one or more secondary active signal sets in accordance with the two or more uplink carrier signals to facilitate communications across the wireless network.
Abstract:
A method for sending an uplink order to active set base stations is disclosed. A new mode of operation for a wireless communication device is determined. A transmission is sent on an uplink control channel to active set base stations that indicates the new mode. The transmission from the wireless communication device is received on the E-DPCCH. It is determined if the transmission is an uplink order. The new mode of operation is transitioned to. Subsequent transmissions from the wireless communication device are interpreted using the new mode of operation if the transmission is an uplink order.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for wireless communication may provide a multi-link PDCP sublayer in a radio network controller capable of allocating PDCP PDUs among a plurality of RLC entities for use in a multi-point HSDPA network. Some aspects of the disclosure address issues relating to out-of-order delivery of the PDCP PDUs to a UE, such as unnecessary retransmissions. That is, the disclosed multi-link PDCP may be capable of distinguishing between sequence number gaps that are caused by physical layer transmission failures and those caused merely by skew.
Abstract:
A method of communicating speech comprising time-warping a residual low band speech signal to an expanded or compressed version of the residual low band speech signal, time-warping a high band speech signal to an expanded or compressed version of the high band speech signal, and merging the time-warped low band and high band speech signals to give an entire time-warped speech signal. In the low band, the residual low band speech signal is synthesized after time-warping of the residual low band signal while in the high band, an unwarped high band signal is synthesized before time-warping of the high band speech signal. The method may further comprise classifying speech segments and encoding the speech segments. The encoding of the speech segments may be one of code-excited linear prediction, noise-excited linear prediction or ⅛ frame (silence) coding.
Abstract:
A method for using a flexible size radio link control (RLC) protocol data unit (PDU) on an uplink is described. A request for an RLC PDU is received from a medium access control (MAC) layer. Radio conditions for a first uplink carrier and a second uplink carrier are determined. A size of the RLC PDU is selected based on the radio conditions. The RLC PDU is generated. The RLC PDU is sent to the MAC layer.
Abstract:
A system and method enable handover from a DC-HSUPA-capable node in a cellular wireless network to a non-DC-HSUPA-capable node. According to various aspects of the present disclosure, a handover may implement a legacy serving cell change procedure or an enhanced serving cell change procedure. In either case, signaling from the network to user equipment includes information to enable the user equipment to change or remove an Active Set when undergoing a handover from a cell with two uplink carriers and accordingly two Active Sets, to a cell with one uplink carrier and accordingly one Active Set.
Abstract:
Adaptive De-Jitter Buffer for Voice over IP (VoIP) for packet switch communications. The de-jitter buffer methods and apparatus presented avoid playback of underflows while balancing end-to-end delay. In one example, the de-jitter buffer is recalculated at the beginning of each talkspurt. In another example, talkspurt packets are compressed upon receipt of all remaining packets.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided to enable a reduction in processing power while handling high data rates. An apparatus includes a processing system configured to service a MAC PDU. Here, the MAC PDU includes a MAC header and at least one MAC SDU. The MAC header includes a transmission sequence number (TSN) having a length greater than 6 bits. Further, the processing system is configured to read the MAC header and to transport the MAC PDU in accordance with the MAC header between a MAC and a PHY utilizing one or more transport blocks over one or more transport channels.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that effectuate and/or facilitate MAC-hs/ehs resets in an enhanced serving cell. In accordance with various aspects set forth herein, systems and/or methods are provided that identify transmission power control bits included in active set update messages received from source or target base stations, ascertain whether or not transmission power control values included in the active set update messages differ from transmission power control values that the system currently operates under, and performs serving cell changes and where necessary media access control status resets based on an examination of a transmission power control combination index.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate indicating channel resource usage information for receiving additional channel resources in a wireless network. An access point can initially receive a set of channel resources from a network controller for providing wireless network access to one or more devices. The access point can grant and/or deny requests for one or more of the channel resources from a plurality of devices and can feedback information to the network controller regarding the granting/denying. The network controller can determine a load on the access point based at least in part on the feedback information and adjust channel resource allocation based on the load. Thus, where an access point has granted close to capacity of allocated resources to one or more devices, the network controller can provide additional resources to the access point based on received feedback information related to the granted resources.
