Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes determining when all HARQ processes are associated with packages for retransmission. The method also includes determining when no new packages are pending in a UE buffer and when a received grant is insufficient for retransmission of any of the HARQ processes. The method further includes determining possible block sizes supported by each allocated time slot identified in the received grant. The method still further includes retransmitting the package of a selected HARQ process with maximum available power.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may achieve faster cellular redirection, which reduces latency of the redirection, and improves throughput and user perception during redirection. In some instances, the UE may speed up the redirection by determining whether a connection release message with redirection information indicating a target radio access technology (RAT), a target cell and/or a target frequency has been received. The UE modifies a connection release complete procedure when the redirection information is received.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes transmitting a scheduling request through a common channel without performing a random access procedure, when uplink data remains in a buffer and no active grant exists during a call. The method also includes receiving a grant and initiating data transmission through an enhanced channel.
Abstract:
In a method of wireless communication, a UE is redirected to a first RAT due to circuit switch fallback via a connection release from the second RAT. The UE is redirected based on redirection information that includes a dedicated preamble and a time period for the UE to perform a random access procedure in the first RAT. In one instance, the UE performs the random access procedure with the dedicated preamble during the time period. In addition, the UE performs the random access procedure with a non-dedicated preamble when no response is received to the dedicated preamble when the time period expires.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) uses idle time slots for system acquisition for IRAT measurement. To speed up the IRAT measurement, the UE starts system acquisition for a for first Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) cell. The UE suspends the system acquisition of the first GSM cell when the first GSM cell signal strength falls below a signal strength of another GSM cell in a neighbor list. The UE then stores information acquired during the system acquisition of the first GSM cell, prior to the suspension. The UE starts a system acquisition for a second GSM cell after the suspension. The UE then resumes the system acquisition of the first GSM cell using the stored information after the second cell is acquired or the acquisition process aborts.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for wireless communication stores synchronization channel (SCH) timing for each identified Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) cell. The stored SCH timing is used to perform base station identity code (BSIC) reconfirmation for an identified GSM cell without frequency correction channel (FCCH) tone detection and initial BSIC confirmation. The stored SCH timing is maintained across a plurality of user equipment (UE) states.
Abstract:
It is determined whether a specific call type occurs. A random access preamble is transmitted at an earliest available sub-channel when the specific call type occurs. The random access preamble is transmitted at an assigned sub-channel when the specific call type does not occur. The call type can be a circuit switched fall back (CSFB) call or an emergency call.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes initiating a specific call type and transmitting a first random access preamble via a first random access preamble channel when initiating the specific call type. The method also includes transmitting a second random access preamble via a second random access preamble channel when initiating the specific call type. The second random access preamble is transmitted without waiting for a response to the transmitted first random access preamble
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE). The UE may transmit UE capability information indicating support for multiple sounding reference signal (SRS) port adaptation patterns to a network entity. Each SRS port adaptation pattern defines a series of SRS transmissions and indicates whether each SRS transmission is a single-port SRS transmission or a multi-port SRS transmission. The UE may receive, from the network entity, a configuration of the multiple SRS port adaptation patterns based on the UE capability information, UE traffic, etc. The UE may dynamically select and/or switch an SRS port adaptation pattern per time slot for sending SRS transmissions.
Abstract:
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a user equipment (UE) or a component thereof that may be configured to receive, from a network node, information configuring a set of discontinuous reception (DRX) preparatory signals associated with a set of DRX cycles, with each DRX preparatory signal of the set of DRX preparatory signals indicating an instruction to transition from a lower power state to a higher power state for a respective DRX cycle of the set of DRX cycles. The apparatus may be further configured to ignore at least one DRX preparatory signal of the set of DRX preparatory signals.
