Abstract:
Generally discussed herein are systems and apparatuses that can implement a Mobility State Estimation (MSE) of a User Equipment (UE) and techniques for using the MSE algorithms. According to an example technique to determine the MSE of a UE can include determining, using the UE, a maximum Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) within a cell, determining, using the UE, a minimum RSRP within the cell, determining, using the UE, a difference between the maximum and minimum RSRP, and determining, using the UE, an MSE of the UE as a function of the determined difference.

Abstract:
Embodiments of a system and method for providing enhanced access barring in a Wireless Network are generally described herein. In an example, a method for controlling access in a mobile device network can include receiving access class barring (ACB) information at user equipment (UE) as part of a system information message including a first system information block, and receiving extended access barring (EAB) information at the UE as part of a system information message including a second system information block. The first system information block can be different from the second system information block.
Abstract:
Embodiments of user equipment (UE) and method for handover enhancement using reference signal received quality (RSRQ) in a wireless network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a UE adaptively selects handover initiation parameters based, at least in part, on a velocity of the UE. The UE may determine an RSRQ of a serving cell and an RSRQ of a target cell and may transmit a measurement report to a serving eNB for handover from the serving cell to the target cell when the target cell RSRQ exceeds the serving cell RSRQ in accordance with the selected handover initiation parameters. In some of these embodiments, the handover initiation parameters may include an offset value, such as an A3offset value, and a time-to-trigger (TTT) that comprise an A3offset-TTT pair.
Abstract:
Embodiments of apparatus, packages, computer-implemented methods, systems, devices, and computer-readable media (transitory and non-transitory) are described herein for ascertaining, e.g., by a traffic detection function (“TDF”), that a first user equipment (“UE”) and a second UE are, potentially, sufficiently proximate to each other to wirelessly exchange data directly. In various embodiments, an evolved serving mobile location center (“E-SMLC”) may be instructed, e.g., by the TDF, to obtain location change data associated with the first and second UEs. In various embodiments, a determination may be made, e.g., by the TDF, based on the location change data, whether the first and second UEs are sufficiently proximate to exchange data directly, and whether the first and second UEs are likely to remain proximate for at least a predetermined time interval. In various embodiments, the first and second UEs may be caused to commence device-to-device (“D2D”) communication based on the determination.
