摘要:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for scanning base stations in wireless communications. The base stations can be scanned in order of distance from a device or a corresponding reference point so that base stations of a shortest distance are measured before those of a longer distance. In addition, scanning of base stations can be ceased according to one or more stopping criteria to improve efficiency of scanning.

This application provides techniques for a mobile station (MS) to determine whether a base station (BS) successfully receives a response to a BS request for the MS to enter an idle mode.

摘要:
Methods and apparatus for setting the connection identifier (CID) mask length of a Hybrid Automatic Repeat-Request (HARQ)-MAP or a SUB-MAP pointer information element (IE) in a compressed downlink map (DL-MAP) of an orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) frame are provided in an effort to reduce the number of false indications in the CID mask, while also striving, as a secondary concern, to reduce the CID mask length. In this manner, an individual mobile station (MS) may not waste processing, battery power, or time interpreting a HARQ-MAP message or a sub downlink/uplink map (SUB-DL-UL-MAP) message that was not intended for this particular MS. For some embodiments where the CID mask length is set to be small, the control overhead (i.e., the size of the HARQ-MAP or the SUB-MAP pointer IE) may be decreased, and more of the OFDMA frame may be available for data traffic.
摘要:
A base station and a subscriber station may negotiate paging parameters so that the subscriber station can enter idle mode. After the subscriber station has entered idle mode, the base station may change at least one paging parameter at the base station. The base station may direct the subscriber station to change at least one paging parameter at the subscriber station after the subscriber station has entered idle mode. The subscriber station may change at least one paging parameter at the subscriber station after the subscriber station has entered idle mode.

摘要:
A user equipment may save power by reducing certain battery draining activities when the battery power remaining in the UE fails to meet a threshold value. The UE may skip inter-radio access technology measurements to conserve battery life when the battery power in the UE fails to meet the threshold. The UE may also extend inter-radio access technology measurement periodicity when the battery power in the UE fails to meet the threshold.
