Abstract:
A method and device for transmitting a sequence of messages from a handheld telecommunications device to a telecommunications network is described, the sequence of messages comprising a plurality of messages to be transmitted at specified times. The method comprises transmitting a message of the sequence of messages and turning off at least one of the transmitter and receiver of the device after transmission of at least one of the messages in the sequence of messages. The method has particular application to messages that terminate a radio connection, such as RRC Connection Release Complete messages in a UMTS system.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for cell measurement. An example method in a network device includes receiving configuration information including at least one of multimedia broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN) configuration or time division duplex (TDD) configuration for an evolved universal terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN) and transmitting the configuration information to a user equipment, wherein the network device is associated with a radio access technology different from E-UTRAN.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides for methods and systems for indicating a frequency for reporting a GERAN CGI. These include the relaxation of the single measurement object per frequency principle; an indication of ARFCN for CGI reading; measurement interruption avoidance; implicit indications of ARFCN for CGI reading; the use of a different object than a measurement object to report the cell for which to report the CGI; the use of a measurement configuration report to indicate the CGI cell or the selection of an ARFCN using to find rules at the UE.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method entails steps of receiving user input signifying that an application on a computing device is to be locked and, in response to the user input, locking a user within the application to thereby permit the user to utilize functionalities of the application without exiting from the application or switching to another application on the computing device.
