Abstract:
A system and method for allocating one or more Physical downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) resource and correspondingly allocating one or more Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) resource within the PUCCH. The allocation of the one or more PUCCH resource can be based on the allocation of one or more previously allocated PUCCH resources within the PUCCH that are associated with one or more other mobile devices. For example, the allocation of the current PDCCH resource and corresponding PUCCH resource can include determining the interference between the current PUCCH resource and the one or more other PUCCH resources having been previously allocated. Based on the interference, a corresponding PDCCH resource can be re-allocated so as to re-allocate the current PUCCH resource.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for staged connectivity and sleep mode are provided. Embodiments of the present disclosure optimize power consumption for a user across user devices by creating an ad hoc co-located network of user devices and establishing a device in the co-located network to act as a master (hub) device. In an embodiment, the system includes multiple user wireless devices and a network controller. The network controller identifies a set of proximate wireless devices and the power capability for each wireless device in the set. The network controller then selects a wireless device in the set to act as the hub (master) wireless device based on factors such as the power capabilities of each wireless device. The network controller then instructs the other wireless devices in the set to power down and instructs the appropriate network providers to handover communications to the hub (master) device.
