Abstract:
A method for wireless communication is described. A slow associated control channel block is received. It is determined that the slow associated control channel block fails an integrity check. A correlation level between the slow associated control channel block and one or more stored slow associated control channel blocks is determined. The stored slow associated control channel blocks are set based on a maximum correlation level. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Devices, methods, and systems for implementing semi non-DRx mode for a wireless communication device are described herein. According to some embodiments, if it is determined that semi non-DRx mode is supported by a network, a wireless communication device can enter semi non-DRx mode. The paging block on a multiframe corresponding to the wireless communication device's paging index is monitored. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described above.
Abstract:
A method for receiving cell broadcast messages is described. The method includes communicating with a first cell. The method also includes switching to communicating with a second cell. A cell broadcast channel is read after switching cells. The method further includes switching from a dedicated mode to a packet idle mode. The cell broadcast channel is reread once after switching from a dedicated mode to a packet idle mode. Other aspects, embodiments and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
A method for responding to a communication event by a wireless communication device is described. The method includes beginning a cell reselection procedure. The method also includes detecting a communication event. The method further includes obtaining at least one system information message required to respond to the communication event. The method additionally includes responding to the communication event before all system information messages are obtained.
Abstract:
A method for wireless communication by a wireless communication device is described. The method includes searching for service on a public land mobile network (PLMN). The method also includes discovering a cell of a requested PLMN. The method further includes determining that cell selection criteria for the cell is not met. The method additionally includes adding the cell to a monitored list. The method also includes monitoring cells in the monitored list more frequently than cells not in the monitored list. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are directed to operation of a device supporting multiple SIMs. A method may include detecting a paging collision scenario between a first subscription and at least a second subscription. The method may further include modifying a page reading operation of at least one of the first subscription and the at least a second subscription to avoid a paging collision between the first subscription and the at least a second subscription. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described in the application.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for selecting modulation and encoding schemes for transmitting control information on a wireless channel. For example, a base station or access terminal may select a modulation and coding scheme for transmitting radio link or media access control messages on a radio frequency channel based on a link quality of the radio frequency channel. The radio frequency channel may be an enhanced general packet radio service control channel. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
The present disclosure discusses devices, methods, and systems for improving signaling. This can occur, according to some implementations, by increasing a power of at least one signaling channel if errors on the signaling channel occur, comprising tracking quality of the at least one signaling channel, determining whether the at least one signaling channel has an error rate that is above a threshold, and increasing power to the at least one signaling channel if the error rate is above the threshold. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) and a method of wireless communication using the UE that includes a first transceiver and a second transceiver. The method includes determining that the first transceiver is scheduled to communicate using a first transmission simultaneous to the second transceiver being scheduled to communicate using a second transmission, and altering an operation of at least one of the first and second transceivers to mitigate battery voltage droop due to simultaneous transmissions of the transceivers. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
A base-station (BS) receiving a random access request from user equipment (a UE), followed by a connection request. The connection request contains UE identity information which may have one of multiple formats depending on whether the access request and/or the connection request indicate that the UE is operating as a bandwidth-limited (BL) UE, an enhanced coverage (CE) UE, or a UE that operates in neither the BL mode nor the CE mode. In the BL mode, the UE may transmit a truncated identifier that is sufficient for the BS to retrieve capability information for the UE prior to transmitting a resource grant to the UE. The BS may then configure the UE and BS to using a radio configuration optimized for the UE's capabilities and transmit the resource grant in accordance with the optimized configuration.
