    Abstract: Handover criteria for wireless networks are provided. A base station (BS) transmits, to a user equipment (UE), a configuration for at least one measurement event to be used for a handover of the UE from a source cell to one of a set of neighbor cells, wherein the configuration includes at least a configured rank criterion for triggering a measurement report in response to the measurement event. The BS receives, from the UE, the measurement report based on the configuration, the measurement report at least including a measured rank value for one or more reported cells in the set. The BS selects a target cell from the reported cells for the handover based at least on the received measured rank values, and transmits a handover command to the UE for the handover to the selected target.

    Abstract: Methods and techniques are described for enhancing positioning related protocols in order to indicate when one location session is different from another location session. One or more messages provided in a location session by a location server to a user equipment (UE) may include a session indication, such as a session identifier (ID), where a different session ID is provided for each location session. The session indication may be a new session indicator provided in an initial message in a location session or an end session indicator provided in a final message in a location session. An extra message may be sent by the location server indicating that the location session has ended. A correlation ID provided by a network entity to the location server may be included in messages as the session indication, e.g., where a different correlation ID is provided for each location session.

    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for navigating a mobile device based on network connectivity. An aspect includes calculating one or more routes from an origin location to a destination location based on first network connectivity information for a first subscription of a plurality of subscriptions of the mobile device and second network connectivity information for a second subscription of the plurality of subscriptions, providing the one or more routes and an indication of available network connectivity along each portion of the one or more routes based on the first and second network connectivity information, receiving a selection of one of the one or more routes, and setting, based on the first network connectivity information, the first subscription as an active subscription for the mobile device for a first portion of the selected route.

    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for communicating using a media. In an aspect, an apparatus displays a media, receives a selection of a person displayed in the media, identifies the selected person, displays communication methods that may be used to communicate with the identified person, receives a selection of one of the communication methods, and engages in a communication with the identified person using the selected communication method.

    Abstract: A mobile device can send and receive signals in a dedicated frequency band and receive signals in a separate frequency band separate from the dedicated frequency band. The mobile device can send one or more frequency band compatibility combinations each including first and second frequency bands, the first frequency band being in the separate frequency band and the second frequency band being in the dedicated frequency. The mobile device can listen, based on a received neighbor list, for a first signal that has a frequency in the first frequency band and for a second signal that has a frequency in the second frequency band. The mobile device can determine, based on the first signal, ranging information indicative of a range from the mobile device to a source of the first signal, e.g., to obtain improved accuracy ranging information.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for use by an user equipment (UE) to perform an autonomous tune-away period of operation. The techniques allow the UE to transmit an indication of reception to a first base station during the autonomous tune-away period of operation during which the UE may be configured to receive signals from a second base station. The indication of reception may correspond to a signal transmitted or to be transmitted by the first base station during the autonomous tune-away period of operation. The indication of reception transmitted during the autonomous tune-away period of time may influence signals transmitted by the first base station after an end of the autonomous tune-away period of operation.
