Abstract: Proxy devices simultaneously support multiple modes of client device operation. Embodiments facilitate continued support of idle mode, proxy state operation of one or more client devices by a proxy device that is serving an active connected mode proxied client device. Paging message delivery from the proxy device to an idle mode proxied client device is facilitated by the proxy device monitoring a channel associated with the active connected mode proxied client device for a message (e.g., paging message) associated with the idle mode proxied client device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, devices, and computer program products are described for network scaling. In one example, candidate cells may be selected and ranked. For an initial assessment, the selected cells may operate at a significantly reduced power, and the network performance may be evaluated. Based on the results, only a subset of the candidate cells may be switched off. The whole process may be repeated until all the candidate cells are evaluated. Network downscaling may be done at a site level, a sector level, or a hybrid (site level first, and then additional downscaling by sector level).

Abstract: A power conservation scheme is provided for conserving power in an access terminal that includes a dedicated proxy circuit, a receiver/transmitter chain, and/or a baseband processor. The baseband processor is adapted to determine when a wireless communication link with an access network has been inactive for at least a threshold amount of time. If such inactivity is ascertained, the baseband processor sends a proxy request to the proxy circuit. Upon receiving such proxy request, the proxy circuit monitors a data, control, and/or paging channel on behalf of the access terminal while the baseband processor is powered down. If a signal is received for the access terminal over the monitored channel, then a wake-up signal is sent to the baseband processor to cause it to power up and monitor a data channel. Upon receiving a response from the baseband processor, the proxy circuit may stop operating as a proxy.

Abstract: A novel power conservation scheme is provided for conserving power in a wireless client terminal with an established communication session. While in a connected mode, the client terminal may receive data for the communication session via a data channel from an access point. During periods of inactivity over the data channel, the client terminal may switch to a lowered power mode, where the client terminal discontinuously monitors a control channel and does not monitor the data channel. The access point is informed of the operating mode of the client terminal. If a data resume indicator is received over the control channel, the client terminal switches back to the connected mode and resumes the communication session by receiving additional data over the data channel.

Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products are described for supporting macrocell-to-femtocell hand-ins of active macrocell communications for a mobile device. A mobile device may perform an out-of-band (OOB) search for the femtocell, the OOB search triggered by a proximity detection configuration command from the macrocell. The mobile device may wirelessly communicate with a located femtocell via an OOB link, and receive femtocell information from the femtocell via the OOB link. The mobile device may transmit the received femtocell information to the macrocell. The macrocell may generate instruction for a mobile device search based on the femtocell information. The macrocell may transmit such instructions to the mobile device for an in-band search for the femtocell.

Abstract: A method and system provide assisted acquisition of a wireless link between user equipment and a femtocell unit. After an initial calibration of timing and/or frequency information, the user equipment enters into a low-power state. The femtocell unit monitors for system updates using a network listen module that sniffs the air interface of one or more neighboring cells. Upon a trigger event, the femtocell unit provides aiding information, for example, timing and/or frequency information corresponding to a change in timing and/or frequency of the air interface, over a second radio, e.g., a wireless personal area network interface. Thus, the user equipment may remain in the low-power state and receive updates with respect to the wireless wide area network interface. Subsequently, upon wake-up, the user equipment may utilize the aiding information, for example, to recalibrate its timing and/or frequency. Thus, acquisition of the wireless link with the femtocell unit may be expedited.

Abstract: Out of band (OOB) communication facilitates femtocell operation. One or more proximity agent provides out of band communication with nodes (e.g., mobile client devices) to provide assistance in or otherwise facilitate femtocell discovery, reselection, and/or interference mitigation. Out of band communication techniques provide for low power discovery, association, and communication as compared to corresponding femtocell or cellular network communication techniques. An OOB proximity agent is provided in association with a femtocell to provide transmit power level control with respect to the femtocell. In operation, if a client device searches for and finds an OOB proximity agent, it will find a femtocell, thereby avoiding a need to aggressively search for femtocells.

Abstract translation: 带外（OOB）通信促进了毫微微小区的操作。 一个或多个邻近代理提供与节点（例如，移动客户端设备）的带外通信，以提供对毫微微蜂窝发现，重选和/或干扰减轻的辅助或以其他方式促进。 与对应的毫微微小区或蜂窝网络通信技术相比，带外通信技术提供低功率发现，关联和通信。 与毫微微小区相关联地提供OOB邻近代理以提供关于毫微微小区的发射功率电平控制。 在操作中，如果客户端设备搜索并找到OOB邻近代理，则会发现毫微微小区，从而避免了积极搜索毫微微小区的需要。
