Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques and apparatus for efficient support of connected discontinuous reception (C-DRX) by using a wireless device (e.g., a user equipment (UE)) with a second receiver. A wireless device with two receivers may place one receiver in a low power mode and take the receiver out of the low power mode in response to a signal received from a serving base station (BS) of the wireless device. A BS may direct a wireless device to enter a low power DRX (LP-DRX) mode or enhanced DRX mode having longer low power cycles than a non-enhanced DRX mode, and the wireless device may place a primary receiver in a low power mode in response to the directive from the BS. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and disclosed.
Abstract:
Various aspects described herein relate to transmitting hybrid automatic repeat/request (HARQ) feedback. A HARQ communication can be received over a set of one or more links based on a first scheduling grant. One or more interference parameters related to receiving the HARQ communication can be determined as well as one or more predicted interference parameters for a next HARQ communication. HARQ feedback can be transmitted for the HARQ communication including the one or more interference parameters and the one or more predicted interference parameters.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives a discovery signal transmitted from a connection point (CP) via a directional beam. The discovery signal may include first information (including beam sweep configuration information) related to the CP. The apparatus then transmits an association signal to the CP based on the beam sweep configuration information and monitors for a resource grant from the CP based on the transmitted association signal. Alternatively, the apparatus transmits a discovery signal via a directional beam to a user equipment (UE). The discovery signal may include first information (including beam sweep configuration information) related to the apparatus. The apparatus then receives an association signal from the UE based on the beam sweep configuration information and determines a resource grant for communicating with the UE based on the received association signal.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus is embodied in a device that determines a first set of antenna weights for communicating a first communication ray, detects a change in a physical orientation of the device, determines a mapping between the first set of antenna weights, the detected change in the physical orientation, and a second set of antenna weights for communicating a second communication ray, communicates the second communication ray based on the second set of antenna weights.
