Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to a communication between a user equipment (“UE”) and a plurality of evolved Node Bs (“eNBs”). A UE may be adapted to operate in a dual connected mode on respective wireless cells provided by first and second eNBs. The UE may be adapted to estimate respective power headroom (“PHR”) values associated with simultaneous operation on the first and second wireless cells. The UE may cause the first and second PHR estimates to be transmitted to both the first and second eNBs. The first and second eNBs may use these estimates to compute respective uplink transmission powers for the UE. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract translation: 本文所描述的实施例一般涉及用户设备（“UE”）和多个演进节点B（“eNB”）之间的通信。 UE可以适于在由第一和第二eNB提供的相应无线小区上以双连接模式操作。 UE可以适于估计与在第一和第二无线小区上的同时操作相关联的相应功率余量（“PHR”）值。 UE可以使得第一和第二PHR估计被发送到第一和第二eNB两者。 第一和第二eNB可以使用这些估计来计算UE的各个上行链路传输功率。 可以描述和/或要求保护其他实施例。

Abstract: Discontinuous reception (DRX) alignment techniques for dual-connectivity architectures are described. In one embodiment, for example, user equipment (UE) may comprise one or more radio frequency (RF) transceivers, one or more RF antennas, and logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to receive a radio resource control (RRC) configuration information message containing a small cell RRC configuration information element (IE), the small cell RRC configuration IE to contain a small cell discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration IE comprising one or more inter-cell-coordinated small cell DRX parameters, the logic to determine a start time for a small cell DRX cycle based on at least one of the one or more inter-cell-coordinated small cell DRX parameters and initiate the small cell DRX cycle at the determined start time. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: User equipment (UE) handover (HO) techniques for reducing or eliminating interruption time during an HO process are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may include at least one memory and logic for an evolved node B (eNB), at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware coupled to the at least one memory. The logic may be operative to forward downlink (DL) data received from a serving gateway (SGW) to user equipment (UE), transmit a handover command to the UE to trigger execution of a handover (HO) process to handover the UE to a target eNB, continue forwarding at least a portion of the DL data to the UE following transmission of the handover command, and terminate transmission of the DL data to the UE responsive to detecting a stop DL data event. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
