Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided that include determining resources over which to measure signals from a base station. One or more parameters related to a resource restriction pattern can be provided to the device for measuring signals over indicated resources. The resource restricted pattern can correspond to a bitmap where each bit relates to a time period over which signals can be transmitted by the base station, and the bit can specify whether a signal received over the resource should be measured. The resource restriction pattern can correspond to a set or protected resources negotiated using a resource partitioning scheme.

Abstract: Techniques for acknowledging data transmissions in a multi-carrier wireless communication network are disclosed. In one aspect, a UE determines a number of acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) bits for a data transmission on one more component carriers (CCs) based on information obtained from a grant. The grant may be a downlink grant or an uplink grant, and the information obtained may include a number of CCs scheduled for data transmission and/or identifiers of the scheduled CCs. The UE may determine the number of ACK/NACK bits for acknowledging the data transmission based on the number of scheduled CCs and the identifier of each scheduled CC.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate operating an access terminal in an LTE based wireless communication environment utilizing extended microsleep. While in non-DRX mode, an access terminal can operate in on state for a first period of time and in extended microsleep state for a second period of time. Further, the first and second periods of time can form a repeating pattern where these periods of time alternate. Thus, the access terminal can turn on its receiver for the first period of time (e.g., decode downlink information while in on state) and turn off its receiver for the second period of time (e.g., inhibit decoding of downlink information while in extended microsleep state). Further, the first period of time in the repeating pattern can be one TTI (e.g., 1 ms) and the second period of time in the repeating pattern can be a plurality of TTIs (e.g., 5 ms).

Abstract translation: 描述了利用扩展的微睡眠在基于LTE的无线通信环境中操作接入终端的系统和方法。 在非DRX模式下，接入终端可以在第一时间段内处于开启状态，并且在延长的微睡眠状态下操作第二时间段。 此外，第一和第二时间段可以形成这些时间段交替的重复模式。 因此，接入终端可以在第一时间段内接通其接收机（例如，在处于开启状态时解码下行链路信息）并且在第二时间段内关闭其接收机（例如，在扩展的微睡眠期间禁止下行链路信息的解码 州）。 此外，重复模式中的第一时间段可以是一个TTI（例如，1ms），并且重复模式中的第二时间段可以是多个TTI（例如，5ms）。

Abstract: System(s) and method(s) are provided for handover of a mobile terminal in a wireless communication system. Handoff resolution relies on both a downlink channel quality indication between a serving base station and the mobile terminal, and uplink channel quality indications amongst the terminal and a measurement set of target base stations. To generate UL channel quality indicators, the mobile station conveys a narrowband or broadband, sounding reference signal, and serving and target base stations measure UL and DL performance metrics (e.g., RSRP, RSSI, or RSOT). In backward handover, UL channel state information from target cells is received at the serving base station through backhaul communication, and handoff is resolved based on both UL and DL quality reports. In forward handover, the set of UL quality reports are conveyed to the mobile station to determine a target cell for handoff.

Abstract translation: 提供了一种用于无线通信系统中的移动终端切换的系统和方法。 切换分辨率依赖于服务基站与移动终端之间的下行链路信道质量指示以及终端之间的上行链路信道质量指示和目标基站的测量集合。 为了产生UL信道质量指示符，移动台传送窄带或宽带，探测参考信号，并且服务和目标基站测量UL和DL性能度量（例如，RSRP，RSSI或RSOT）。 在向后切换中，通过回程通信在服务基站接收来自目标小区的UL信道状态信息，并且基于UL和DL质量报告来解决切换。 在正向切换中，将该UL质量报告传送给移动台以确定用于切换的目标小区。

Abstract: System(s) and method(s) are provided for forward handover under radio link failure. A configurable criterion for radio link failure (RLF) is established through a reference threshold for a channel quality metric; the threshold (CQITH) can be determined at least on a quality-of-service basis or a per-terminal basis. A low-overhead indication of RLF is conveyed as a NULL CQI when the channel quality metric is below threshold. Onset of RLF triggers preparation of forward handover (FHO) at a terminal within a predetermined timer, during which normal service can resume if link quality recovers above CQITH. Forward handover is pursued once timer elapses. Preparation at the terminal can be complemented by preparation implemented in advanced to RLF condition, in accordance to a disparate threshold applied to terminal's measurements. Preparation of FHO includes backhaul exchange of operational information like buffered data, and context.

Abstract translation: 提供系统和方法用于无线电链路故障时的前向切换。 通过信道质量度量的参考阈值建立无线电链路故障（RLF）的可配置标准; 可以至少基于服务质量或每个终端来确定阈值（CQITH）。 当信道质量度量低于阈值时，RLF的低开销指示作为空CQI被传送。 RLF的启动触发在预定定时器内的终端处准备前向切换（FHO），在正常服务期间，如果链路质量恢复到高于CQITH，则恢复正常服务。 一旦定时器过去，正在进行切换。 根据应用于终端测量的不同阈值，在终端的准备可以通过在高级到RLF条件下实施的准备来补充。 FHO的准备包括诸如缓冲数据和上下文之类的操作信息的回程交换。

Abstract: A control scheme using packet headers allows GSM EDGE Radio Access Network (GERAN) systems to increase spectral efficiency through multiplexing techniques, such as superposition coding, multi-user packet transmission, joint detection, and/or joint decoding. A fast feedback scheme for GERAN allows Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) frames to be transmitted over GERAN air interfaces without excessive feedback latency. As a result, Hybrid Automatic Repeat-reQuest (H-ARQ) acknowledgements may be timely provided for end-to-end VoIP calls that traverse GERAN air interfaces. Additionally, Incremental Redundancy H-ARQ and link quality feedback latencies are decreased.

Abstract translation: 使用分组报头的控制方案允许GSM EDGE无线电接入网络（GERAN）系统通过诸如叠加编码，多用户分组传输，联合检测和/或联合解码的复用技术来提高频谱效率。 GERAN的快速反馈方案允许通过GERAN空中接口传输语音互联网协议（VoIP）帧，而无需过多的反馈延迟。 因此，可以及时提供混合自动重复请求（H-ARQ）确认，用于穿越GERAN空中接口的端到端VoIP呼叫。 此外，增量冗余H-ARQ和链路质量反馈等待时间减少。
