摘要： The specification and drawings present a new method, apparatus and software related product for handling interruptions, specifically passive interruption (or unintended interruption) for telephone communications (e.g., wireless) between users or user equipments (e.g., in LTE wireless systems). At least one monitoring electronic device can detect one or more unintended interruptions in an audio communication between at least two UEs in one or both communication directions before each of the one or more unintended interruptions occur. Upon this detection, at least one monitoring electronic device can provide an instruction to facilitate a shortened audio delay for audio data in at least one communication direction to offset the one or more unintended interruptions. The embodiments described herein may be applies to wireless/mobile communications and non-wireless/landline communications.

摘要： A communication device converts a bit stream to multiple symbols and provides encryption at a physical layer by shifting a phase of each symbol of the multiple symbols to produce multiple encrypted symbols. Each encrypted symbol of the multiple encrypted symbols is modulated with an orthogonal subcarrier to produce at least one modulated subcarrier and the at least one modulated subcarrier is then transmitted via a wireless link. On a receive side, a receiving communication device receives the transmitted, encrypted symbols and provides decryption at a physical layer by shifting a phase of each encrypted symbol in correspondence with the phase used to encrypt the symbol at the transmit side.

摘要： Upon detecting (201) a communication need for a group of communication recipients that entails attempting to make at least one transmission to each of the communication recipients in the group (wherein at least one of the communication recipients has both a scheduled personal communication opportunity and a scheduled group communication opportunity), one automatically uses (202) whichever of the scheduled communication opportunities occurs first to make the at least one transmission to the communication recipient(s) for which this option applies. In one approach this response is further informed and influenced by one or more other factors, such as but not limited to system loading (203), group size and/or known whereabouts (204), and/or whether a recent transmission response was received (205).

摘要翻译： 一旦检测到（201）对一组通信接收者的通信需求，这些通信接收者需要尝试对该组中的每个通信接收者进行至少一次传输（其中至少一个通信接收者既具有预定的个人通信机会又 计划的群组通信机会），一个自动使用（202）首先发生调度的通信机会中的哪一个，以向该选择适用的通信接收者做出至少一个传输。 在一种方法中，该响应被一个或多个其他因素进一步通知并影响，例如但不限于系统加载（203），组大小和/或已知的下落（204），和/或是否接收到最近的传输响应 （205）。

摘要： A method includes transmitting a paging request message to a plurality of asynchronous base stations (102a-g) where a paging message is sent within its respective cell at any time within a given paging interval (202). The method continues by receiving notification that paged mobile station (106) has responded to a paging message. The page cancelling message indicates to the base stations do not need to send the paging message within their respective cells during the current paging interval and that the paging process is cancelled.

摘要翻译： 一种方法包括向多个异步基站（102a-g）发送寻呼请求消息，其中寻呼消息在给定的寻呼间隔（202）内的任何时间在其相应小区内被发送。 该方法通过接收寻呼移动站（106）已经响应寻呼消息的通知来继续。 页面取消消息指示给基站在当前寻呼间隔期间不需要在它们各自的小区内发送寻呼消息，并且取消寻呼过程。

摘要： Various embodiments are described for potentially reducing the impact of routing area updates on wireless system capacity. Logic flow diagram 10, in FIG. 1, depicts such functionality. In some embodiments, it is determined (12) whether a remote unit is within an edge portion of a routing area, while in other embodiments it is determined (12) whether the remote unit is within an end portion of a routing area update interval. It is also determined (14) whether one or more conditions are present for the remote unit to perform a resource-efficient routing update. A routing area update is then performed (16) when one or more of the conditions are present and when, depending on the embodiment, either the remote unit is determined to be within the edge portion of the routing area or the remote unit is determined to be within the end portion of the routing area update interval.

摘要： For a packet, a communication device determines (12) a length of a packet length field based on one or more of the following: a size of a transmit region allocated for a remote unit, a size of a transmit region allocated for a remote unit and not to be used for at least one other packet, and/or whether the packet length of the packet is indicated by a history of packet lengths of previously transmitted packets. The communication device may also or alternatively determine (22) a length of a connection identifier field based on a number of connection identifiers previously established. The communication device then transmits (13, 23) the packet, which includes the field(s) of determined length. By determining the lengths of these fields in this manner, the fields may be made shorter and their use may potentially reduce signaling overhead as compared to using the present-day fixed-length fields.

摘要： A method is provided for allocating initial ranging opportunities in a series of frames. According to the method, a number of initial ranging opportunities are allocated in frame N that occurs after a triggering event, and k frames after frame N the number of initial ranging opportunities is selectively reduced. The triggering event is one of system startup and broadcast of an Uplink Channel Descriptor message. Also provided is a base station that includes a controller for allocating a number of initial ranging opportunities in frame N that occurs after a triggering event. The controller selectively reduces the number of initial ranging opportunities k frames after frame N. The triggering event is one of system startup, broadcast of an Uplink Channel Descriptor message, broadcast of a page message, or broadcast of a signature for an overhead configuration message.
