Abstract:
A communication terminal is described comprising a first transceiver configured for communication according to a first radio access technology and a second transceiver configured for communication according to a second radio access technology. The second transceiver is configured to determine whether a frequency range is occupied by a transmission according to the second radio access technology and to notify the first transceiver whether the frequency range is occupied by a transmission according to the second radio access technology. The first transceiver is configured to receive signals transmitted in the frequency range based on the notification from the second transceiver.

Abstract:
A method of processing a message to be transmitted in a radio communication network is described. The method includes channel encoding a first bit stream representing a message. A combined bit stream is generated by combining at least a portion of the channel encoded first bit stream with at least a portion of a second bit stream, wherein the second bit stream representing at least partly the message. The channel encoded first bit stream is configured to be transmitted over a first radio link of the radio communication network and the combined bit stream is configured to be transmitted over a second radio link of the radio communication network.
Abstract:
In embodiments, apparatuses, methods, and storage media may be described for presenting, by a user equipment (UE), a parameter of a network policy to a user, and receiving an indication of the user preference related to that parameter of the network policy. In response to receiving the indication, the UE may select one or more radio links with which the UE should communicatively couple based on the user preference and the network policy. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
A wireless device may include a controller configured to identify an emergency scenario and to generate an emergency message including information about the emergency scenario, and a transmitter configured to transmit, on a discovery channel allocated for other wireless devices to perform discovery, an emergency indicator beacon that indicates an upcoming transmission of the emergency message, and to transmit the emergency message on a data channel of the wireless device.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to an access point (AP) device for controlling spectrum usage of a hierarchical communication system, in which a spectrum reserved for an Incumbent is usable by at least one user equipment (UE) for transmission when the spectrum is not required by the Incumbent, the AP device comprising a processor configured to: enforce the at least one UE into a mode protecting use of the spectrum by the Incumbent based on a spectrum request indication from the Incumbent; and enable transmission of the at least one UE using the spectrum reserved for the Incumbent based on a spectrum availability indication from the Incumbent.
Abstract:
A communication device is provided that includes a baseband circuit and a transmitter configured to transmit a first signal and a projected signal. The baseband circuit is configured to determine the projected signal based on an estimated signal state information such that an energy of a shaped projected signal is smaller than an energy of a shaped signal. The estimated signal state information is an estimate of a signal state information based on the first signal and a received signal that is received by a receiver of the second communication device. The shaped projected signal is the projected signal received by the receiver of the second communication device and filtered by a filter of the second communication device. The shaped signal is the received signal filtered by the filter of the second communication device.
Abstract:
A communication device can include a processor configured to receive, on a radio channel, an uplink radio transmission in a first waveform format from a terminal device that instructs the communication device to forward the uplink radio transmission to a network access node, and transmit, on the radio channel, the uplink radio transmission to the network access node with a preamble in a second waveform format to protect the uplink radio transmission from collisions.
Abstract:
The present disclosure includes systems and methods that enable support of MTC UEs that can benefit from the device complexity and power complexity reductions of 3GPP Release 13 LC UEs but at the same time support higher data rates. An apparatus operates in a single narrowband (NB) mode where the apparatus supports communication over only a single NB. The single NB is included in a plurality of NBs within a system bandwidth (BW). A determination is made to switch from the single NB mode to an aggregated BW mode. The apparatus switches from the single NB mode to the aggregated BW mode. The apparatus supports communication over more than the single NB in the aggregated BW mode. The apparatus communicates with an evolved Node B (eNB) using an aggregated BW that includes the single NB and at least a portion of a second NB of the plurality of NBs.
