摘要:
Techniques for sending resource requests in a wireless communication system are described. Multiple types of quality of service (QoS) information may be supported for resource requests and may include QoS class and latency deadline. A terminal may have data to send on the reverse link and may determine QoS information for the data. The QoS information may include at least one QoS type, which may be dependent on a configuration selected for use to send resource requests. The terminal may also determine backlog level information indicative of the amount of data to send. The terminal may generate a resource request with the backlog level and QoS information. The resource request may include the backlog level information and QoS class information, the backlog level information and either QoS class information or latency deadline information, the backlog level information and latency deadline information, or some other combination of information.

A network function is configured to maintain a copy of a session state for an access terminal. The network function is further configured to query a session master to determine whether the session state has changed. The session master is configured to generate a response to the query that enables the network function to update the copy of the session state if the session state has changed. The access terminal may be configured to change the session state at a first network function and send a message to a second network function to indicate that the session state has been changed.

Systems and methods are provided for processing wireless signal components for a mobile wireless access broadband service. This can include processes for defining a protocol that controls whether to invoke a tune away component to determine an alternative wireless communications path. This can include defining one or more tune away parameters for the tune away component. The process can then automatically select the alternative wireless communications path based in part on the tune away procedure and at least one of the tune away parameters.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate enhancing acquisition and handoff in a wireless network deployment by leveraging primary pilots and secondary pilots. The deployment can support more than one frequency band for operation, yet a mobile device can receive signals on one frequency band at a given time. Thus, a base station can transmit primary pilot(s) over frequency band(s) associated with operating data channel(s) as well as secondary pilot(s) over frequency band(s) that lack data channel(s) for the base station. Moreover, the base station can convey information that indicates to a mobile device whether each pilot is primary or secondary. Further, the mobile device can employ knowledge of pilot type (e.g., primary or secondary) as well as signal strength to effectuate handoff decisions; thus, disruptions in communication can be mitigated.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for tunneling packets between remote and serving Access points for delivery to an access terminal (AT) are described. Methods and apparatus for communicating control values and/or information in addition to information to be delivered to an AT over an airlink are also described. An AT uses the received control information to recover communicated packets. Some features support the use of various headers and/or indicators in the headers, e.g., RLP and/or Packet Correlation Protocol (PCP) headers, which may be used to control routing of communicated payloads to an RLP processing module corresponding to an AP which was the source of the communicated payload.
摘要:
Paging load and/or registration load in a network is reduced by using different types of identifiers to specifying which nodes page an access terminal in the network. In some aspects, the network maintains a list that specifies that certain individual nodes (e.g., cells or sectors) are to page a given access terminal and/or that one or more zones (e.g., tracking areas) are to page the access terminal. In some aspects, an access terminal in a network may be configured to provide a forward-looking paging list to the network. The list provided by an access terminal may specify different types of node identifiers (e.g., individual node identifiers, subscriber groups, etc.). The network may then use the list to determine which nodes are to page a given access terminal such that when the access terminal moves to a different node, that node may already be configured to page the access terminal. In some aspect paging load and registration load are managed in a deployment that includes different types of access points. For example, access points of a first type (e.g., macro nodes) may provide service over relatively large coverage areas and access points of a second type (e.g., femto nodes) may provide service over smaller coverage areas and/or provide restricted service.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving an ExtendedChannelInfo message. The method comprises broadcasting the ExtendedChannelInfo message over a Forward Traffic Channel Medium Access Control (MAC); transmitting the ExtendedChannelInfo message in superframes, wherein the superframe number is divisible by NOMPExtendedChannelInfo; delivering the ExtendedChannelInfo message in one superframe or in a set of consecutive superframes; and determining if the transmission of the ExtendedChannelInfo message begins in superframe n and spans k superframe. The ExtendedChannelInfo message is transmitted and received over a communication link.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for transmitting a SystemInfo block in an Active state in a wireless communication system is described. The SystemInfo block is transmitted every NpBCH0—Period superframe. The SystemInfo block is carried over a primary broadcast channel (pBCH0) physical channel by a control channel medium access control (MAC) protocol. The SystemInfo block is prevented from passing through a signaling transport. The SystemInfo block is transmitted on each carrier if a multi-carrier mode is MultiCarrierOn, where the contents of the SystemInfo block is identical for all carriers except for a CarrierID, a FLReservedInterlaces and a NumFLReservedSubband
摘要:
A backup page is provided for a node that misses a page. In some aspects, a first type of access point in a system provides a backup page for an access terminal that is idling on a second of access point in the system in the event the access terminal misses a page by the second of access point in the system. An access point of the first type may page the access terminal according to a first paging schedule while an access point of the second type may page the access terminal according to a second paging schedule. In some aspects an access point of the first type (e.g., a macro node) provides service over a macro coverage area and an access point of the second type (e.g., a femto node) provides service over a smaller coverage area and/or provides restricted service.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for reducing power consumption in a wireless communication system is described. Sending of unicast packets to an access terminal is ceased. It is determined if a ReverseTrafficChannelMAC.UATIReceived indication is received, wherein MAC is medium access control and UATI is unicast access terminal identifier. The access network transitions to a BindUATI state.
