Abstract:
Estimating a channel impulse response (CIR) for a wireless transmission, for example a multimedia broadcast multicast services single frequency network (MBSFN) transmission, may be performed by a receiver of an wireless subframe, without requiring operational memory in excess of what is needed for CIR estimation of unicast signaling, while providing enhanced delay spread coverage. The wireless subframe may be a MBSFN subframe. The receiver may form an aggregate vector of pilot tones extracted from an OFDM reference symbol of an wireless subframe. The receiver may subsample the aggregate vector to obtain a plurality of sub-vectors each comprising a distinct subsampling phase. The receiver may process the plurality of sub-vectors using an inverse fast Fourier transform to obtain time domain representations of each of the sub-vectors. The receiver may combine the time domain representations in various ways to obtain a CIR estimate for the wireless subframe.

Abstract:
User experiences on wireless devices are affected by communication, computation, and user interface capabilities. Another key performance indicator of a wireless device is its battery life. A method, algorithm and apparatus for improving the communication, computation and user interface capabilities of a mobile device is disclosed, which requires the expenditure of less energy and increases battery life. The trade-off between battery life and user experience related to the communication capability is managed by a protocol stack power optimization algorithm that optimally allocates energy resources. The power management algorithm inputs and combines measurements made at various layers of the protocol stack to selectively control a set of actions impacting energy usage. The algorithm maps from a set of measurements to a set of actions that provides the best trade-off between user experience and energy consumption.

Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate acquisition of a cell in the presence of interfering cells. An undesired cell in close proximity to a user equipment unit (UE) can inhibit detection of a desired cell. For instance, a femto cell near the UE can interfere with detection and acquisition of a macro cell. The UE can detect the undesired cell and reconstruct an estimate of signals transmitted by the undesired cell. The estimate can be employed to cancel interference from received signals to facilitate acquisition of a desired cell.
