Abstract:
A paging channel is monitored at a special position of every predetermined time interval subsequent to the last monitored time. It is detected whether a same first identity information is repeatedly broadcasted in the paging channel at special positions of different predetermined time interval. A total number of periodically repeated messages containing the same first identity information is determined. A new time interval is determined by multiplying a time period between two successive repeated paging messages with the total number of periodically repeated paging messages, wherein the new time interval has a monitoring interval (having a plurality of predetermined time intervals) equaling to the length of the time period and a sleep interval. The paging channel is monitored at special positions of the plurality of predetermined time intervals in every new time interval subsequent to the last monitored time so as to receive subsequent paging messages from the cell.
Abstract:
A method for monitoring paging messages in a mobile station with a subscriber identity card camping on a cell is provided. A paging message from the cell is monitored at a set of M predetermined time intervals. A first paging message with a first subscriber identity information being successively broadcasted in the paging channel at a Nth predetermined time interval and a (N+i)th predetermined time interval of the set of M predetermined time intervals is determined. A second paging message with a second subscriber identity information being successively broadcasted in the paging channel at the Nth predetermined time interval and a (N+j)th predetermined time interval of the set of M predetermined time intervals is determined, wherein j>i. The paging channel is monitored at a (N+i)th predetermined time interval and a (N+j)th predetermined time interval of following predetermined time intervals subsequent to the M predetermined time intervals.
Abstract:
A communications apparatus includes an RF signal processing device, a baseband signal processing device and a processor. The processor controls operations of the RF signal processing device and the baseband signal processing device, camps on a first cell of a first RAT, receives a mobile terminated (MT) or mobile originated (MO) service request and determines whether performing a RAT change procedure to switch from the first RAT to a second RAT is required. When determining that performing the RAT change procedure is required, the processor directly camps on a target cell of the second RAT and transmits a MT or MO service response for responding the MT or MO service request to the target cell.
Abstract:
A communications apparatus includes an RF signal processing device, a baseband signal processing device and a processor. The processor controls operations of the RF signal processing device and the baseband signal processing device, camps on a first cell of a first RAT, collects cell selection/reselection parameters of one or more frequencies of the first RAT in an autonomous fast return (AFR) list, switches from the first RAT to the second RAT to camp on a second cell of the second RAT, establishes a connection with a peer communications apparatus via the second cell, receives a connection release message or a channel release message from the second cell to release the connection, and switches from the second RAT to the first RAT by performing a cell selection procedure or a redirection procedure according to the AFR list to camp on a third cell of the first RAT.
Abstract:
A communications apparatus includes an RF signal processing device, a baseband signal processing device and a processor. The processor controls operations of the RF signal processing device and the baseband signal processing device, camps on a first cell of a first RAT, receives a predetermined set of system information (SI) from one or more second cells of a second RAT and stores the predetermined set of SI in an SI early-reading database. When performing a RAT change procedure to switch from the first RAT to the second RAT is required, the processor further retrieves the predetermined set of SI of a target cell of the second RAT from the SI early-reading database and performs the RAT change procedure to camp on the target cell based on the retrieved predetermined set of SI.
Abstract:
A method for shortening a circuit switch fallback (CSFB) performing time includes determining a plurality of weighting values each associated with one of a plurality of frequencies to be measured during a CSFB procedure, determining a frequency measurement sequence for scheduling the frequencies to be measured in sequence according to the determined weighting values, and measuring a signal quality on the frequencies according to the frequency measurement sequence.
