Abstract: Methods and apparatus for waking a mobile station (MS) from a power saving mode to receive a media access control (MAC) management message (e.g., DCD/UCD, MOB_NBR-ADV, and SII-ADV) the MS has not yet received. The MS may wake from the power saving mode after detecting a mismatch between a set of media access control (MAC) management message parameters last received by the MS and the information found in an enhanced broadcast control pointer information element (BCP-IE) transmitted in a downlink map (DL-MAP). In this manner, the MS may be prevented from waking up unnecessarily, thereby providing high power efficiency.

Abstract: Certain embodiments provide a method for managing updates to type-length-value (TLV) parameters used in a mobile station. The method generally includes generating a TLV bitmap having a plurality of bits to indicate whether or not updates exist to a corresponding plurality of TLV parameters, generating one or more client module registration bitmaps to indicate a subset of the TLV parameters utilized by a corresponding one or more client modules running on the mobile station, updating the TLV bitmap to indicate one or more TLV parameters modified by one or more MAC management messages, identifying one or more client modules that utilize the one or more TLV parameters modified by the one or more MAC management messages, as indicated by the client module registration bitmaps, and notifying the identified client modules of the modified TLV parameters.

Abstract: Embodiments provide methods, systems, and/or devices to identify and/or determine a closest base station to a multi-mode mobile device among the multiple wireless communications technologies, such as different Radio Access Technologies (RATs). Having identified a closest base station to the multi-mode mobile device among the multiple wireless communications technologies, the mobile device's location may be estimated using location information regarding the closest identified base station. In some cases, a handover or other procedure may be performed with respect to the mobile device and the closest identified base station. The multiple wireless communications technologies may include, but are not limited to, WiMAX, CDMA 1x, LTE, and/or EVDO.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided that include selecting measurement types for measuring neighboring cells based in part on a change in device location. Where a change in location is relatively small, a device can perform less precise more efficient measurements of the neighboring cells to conserve power and/or processing time than where the change in location is larger. The neighboring cells can operate on a difference frequency than a serving cell; thus, measuring the neighboring cells using more precise measurements can utilize radio frequency (RF) calibration over the different frequency. Where a change in device location is below a threshold, however, less precise measurements that do not use RF calibration can be utilized to measure the neighboring cells.
