Abstract:
The application relates to the management of measurements for the minimization of drive tests MDT. In particular it relates to the measurement of uplink parameters such as UL Coverage Optimization, QoS Verification, or IP Throughput by an entity of the radio access network such as a NodeB or a RNC. In the past, the MDT configuration was always passed on to one or more UEs being served by the particular eNB. Consequently, only downlink parameters could be measured and collected in the past in the scope of MDT. Now, the eNB itself has to perform certain measurements (pertaining to UL traffic), and to combine the results of this eNB based measurements later on with the results reported by the UE over the Uu air interface. Therefore, the application proposes a new parameter in MDT Configuration, which is received from the EM, to turn on/off MDT Uplink Measurements. The trace-based MDT configuration received from the EM (1202) is split into two parts (1204), whereby the new parameter is processed on the CN/RAN side for performing the requested UL measurements, while the rest of the MDT configuration parameters is sent over the air interface to the respective UE (1206). Furthermore, it proposes to combine the MDT UL measurements performed in the RNC/NB/eNB itself and the measurements collected by the UE in a single trace-base MDT report (1212).

Techniques are described that provide uplink power control techniques that can support different uplink multi-input multi-output (MIMO) transmission schemes. Open and closed loop power control schemes can be used to prescribe the power level of the mobile station.
Abstract:
In an example data mining process, performance data for instructions that execute in a data processing system is obtained. The performance data may comprise instruction addresses and corresponding performance information. A dump that comprises the instructions and corresponding instruction addresses may also be obtained. Common code segments in the dump may be automatically identified. A common code segment may comprise an ordered set of multiple instructions that appears multiple times in the dump. Aggregate performance data for the code segments may be generated, based at least in part on (a) the instruction addresses associated with the common code segments in the dump, and (b) the instruction addresses and the corresponding performance information performance data. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Embodiments of computer-implemented methods, systems, computing devices, and computer-readable media are described herein for opportunistically transitioning service flows of mobile devices between being direct and indirect. In various embodiments, a proximity between first and second mobile devices that are in wireless communication with each other may be monitored. In various embodiments, a selective transition of a service flow between the first and second mobile devices from being indirect through the radio network access node using a first radio access technology ("RAT") to being direct using a second RAT may be facilitated, e.g., responsive to a determination that a first criterion has been met. In various embodiments, a selective transition of the service flow from being direct using the second RAT to being indirect using the first RAT may be facilitated, e.g., responsive to a determination that a second criterion has been met.
Abstract:
Uplink power control in a macro cell in a wireless network comprises transmitting a reference signal from a base station device to at least one wireless device within the macro cell. The macro cell comprises the base station device and at least one radio transmitter device that is communicatively coupled to and remote from the base station device. The base station device and one or more radio transmitter devices could be selected to be a transmission point, a reception point or a combination thereof, for each wireless device. Information relating to a transmission power of the base station device is also transmitted to the at least one wireless device. An uplink signal is received from the at least one wireless device containing information relating to an uplink power determination that is based on the reference signal and the information relating to the transmission power of the base station device.
Abstract:
A method for an uplink power control mechanism is presented. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving an allocation information element (IE) in conjunction with a ranging process. The method includes processing the allocation information element to determine power control parameters including a first parameter about offset control and a second parameter about noise and interference level. The method also includes calculating the power value for each channel based at least in part on two or more power control parameters.
Abstract:
A virtual page number lookup request is received at a virtual Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB), wherein the virtual TLB includes an instruction TLB and a data TLB. A lookup of the virtual page number in the virtual TLB is performed. A physical page number corresponding to the virtual page number in the virtual TLB is returned.
Abstract:
One key performance indicator of legacy devices is throughput. In a co-existence or mixed environment with HEW and legacy devices, this throughput of the legacy device(s) can be greatly degraded or reduced to nearly 0 when existing CCA adjustment techniques are utilized. By using a joint-sensing-adapting scheme to adjust CCA levels, this problem can be addressed.

Examples are disclosed for a system to improve wireless spectral efficiency, including a processor, a memory coupled to the processor, a radio coupled to the processor component, one or more antennas coupled to the radio, wireless logic to be executed on the processor component to: process reception of a higher-power request to send (RTS) signal from an initiator by an initiator's receiver; process transmission of a higher-power clear to send (CTS) signal to the initiator, to set a lower-power transmit opportunity (TXOP); and process reception of an invitation to share the TXOP at lower power, the invitation comprising an indication that devices that receive the invitation should transmit at lower power during a time period indicated by the higher-power CTS signal; and a timer to track progress of the time period.
Abstract:
Embodiments of computer-implemented methods, systems, computing devices, and computer-readable media are described herein for assigning transmission power to one or more components carriers in an uplink transmission utilizing carrier aggregation. In one embodiment, power is assigned to a component carrier based on the priority level of the component carrier. In another embodiment, power is assigned based on absolute priority order. In yet another embodiment, power is assigned based on relative priority order.
