Abstract:
A method for performing a manual public land mobile network (PLMN) selection that includes: selecting an absolute radio frequency channel number (ARFCN) from an ARFCN set for one or more frequency bands supported by or enabled on a mobile communication device; determining whether the selected ARFCN is included in at least one allocation table of a first cell of a first PLMN; in response to determining that the selected ARFCN is not included in the at least one allocation table of the first cell of the first PLMN, adding the selected ARFCN to a second ARFCN set; and determining a PLMN identity (PLMN-ID) for each ARFCN in the second ARFCN set.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to receive and transmit data during one or more frames in a multiframe. Power measurements for a neighboring cell can be scheduled during one or more frames not intended for power measurements. In some examples, the one or more frames not intended for power measurements can include an Idle frame and/or a Packet Timing Advance Control Channel (PTCCH) frame in a 52-frame multiframe structure, as well as an Idle frame and/or a Slow Associated Control Channel (SACCH) frame in a 26-frame multiframe structure. Some access terminals may be adapted for facilitating multiple subscriptions, and may operate at least substantially simultaneously in a Connected mode subscription and an Idle mode subscription. In such instances, a neighboring cell for which power measurements are performed may be associated with the Connected mode subscription and/or the Idle mode subscription. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) and a method of wireless communication using the UE that includes a first transceiver and a second transceiver. The method includes determining that the first transceiver is scheduled to communicate using a first transmission simultaneous to the second transceiver being scheduled to communicate using a second transmission, and altering an operation of at least one of the first and second transceivers to mitigate battery voltage droop due to simultaneous transmissions of the transceivers. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for decoding bitstreams are described. The bitstreams may be encoded using a punctured convolution code and received from a wireless network. A puncture pattern associated with a modulation and coding scheme used to encode the bitstream is determined, and punctured log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) generated from the bitstream are ignored while decoding the bitstream. The puncture pattern may be characterized by one or more algorithms that identify punctured LLRs in a repetitive sequence of LLRs. A decoder may exclude punctured LLRs from calculations related to bitstream decoding. The decoder may comprise a Viterbi decoder or an algebraic decoder. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Methods are provided that optimize Voice over Adaptive Multi-user channels on One Slot (VAMOS) communications by recognizing that up to four independent communications are located on the same device, and assigning them to sub-channels of the same VAMOS channel. A VAMOS-capable multi-SIM wireless device such as a dual-SIM dual active (DSDA) device may have up to four simultaneous active calls on the same access network. When assigned to the same VAMOS channel, the up to four active calls may be merged to all use the same radio on the device.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are disclosed to provide for a multi-SIM wireless user equipment configured for block-level, or slot-level tune-away operations enabling simultaneous communication with a plurality of channels. The first and second channels may correspond to different RANs, each of which the user equipment may subscribe to as corresponding to information in a plurality of SIMs at the user equipment. In other examples, the first and second channels may correspond to different cells within a single RAN. In either case, the tune-away operations disclosed provide for reduced data loss at the first channel and in some examples improved communication performance at the second channel. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract:
A method for wireless communication is described. A slow associated control channel block is received. It is determined that the slow associated control channel block fails an integrity check. A correlation level between the slow associated control channel block and one or more stored slow associated control channel blocks is determined. The stored slow associated control channel blocks are set based on a maximum correlation level. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
A method includes: receiving a first speech frame; identifying a first codec mode based at least in part on a Codec Mode Command (CMC) comprising the first speech frame; identifying a second codec mode based at least in part on a downlink (DL) Codec Mode Indication (DCMI) comprising the first speech frame; determining, based at least in part on a current uplink (UL) codec mode, to apply one of the first codec mode, the second codec mode, and a third codec mode having a higher bit rate than the first codec mode; and applying one of the first codec mode, the second codec mode, and the third codec mode. Apply the first codec mode when the RxLev and RXQual are determined not to exceed a predetermined threshold, and applying second or third codec modes otherwise.
