Abstract:
Signaling-only access may be established with an access node (104) under certain circumstances such as, for example, upon determining that a node (102) is not authorized for data access at the access node (102). A node (104) that is not authorized for data access at an access node (104) may still be paged by the access node (104) through the use of signaling-only access. In this way, transmissions by the access node (104) may not interfere with the reception of pages at the node (302). A first node may be selected for providing paging (102) while a second node (106) is selected for access (304) under certain circumstances such as, for example, upon determining that the second node provides more desirable service than the first node.
Abstract:
Techniques for encoding and decoding data are described. In an aspect, multiple code rates for a forward error correction (FEC) code may be supported, and a suitable code rate may be selected based on packet size. A transmitter may obtain at least one threshold to use for code rate selection, determine a packet size to use for data transmission, and select a code rate from among the multiple code rates based on the packet size and the at least one threshold. In another aspect, multiple FEC codes of different types (e.g., Turbo, LDPC, and convolutional codes) may be supported, and a suitable FEC code may be selected based on packet size. The transmitter may obtain at least one threshold to use for FEC code selection and may select an FEC code from among the multiple FEC codes based on the packet size and the at least one threshold.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate silence interval specification and utilization in wireless communications. In particular, a silence interval can be defined such that communications cease during the interval, defined by an interval period, offset within the interval period, and duration; the communication can be that of mobile devices to base stations in a wireless communication network. In this regard, base stations can measure thermal noise during the silence to set a interference over thermal (IoT) level in one example. Additionally, other systems and networks can use the silence intervals to transmit, such as public safety devices and/or peer-to-peer communication. The wireless mobile devices can receive the silence interval information and appropriately blank out communications during the defined period.
Abstract:
In a communication system wherein a CDMA segment at each access point consists of multiple sub-segments a three frame transmission time interval (TTI) with eight retransmissions is utilized for data transmission. The access point not only specifies the interlaces to be utilized for data transmission it also assigns packet start interlaces for particular access terminals. An auxiliary pilot channel R-AuxPICH is transmitted by an access terminal along with CDMA data on reverse link. The ratio of R-AuxPICH to R-PICH is varied based on ACK/NACK feedback. A reverse link activity bit (RAB) which can be used as an emergency load-control mechanism for non-QoS flows is also disclosed.
Abstract:
To support mobile stations that are not capable of demodulating the entire bandwidth or that can be made to demodulate less than the entire bandwidth, a system, apparatus and method are provided to schedule users on less than all of the bandwidth. Further, certain users can be scheduled on more of the bandwidth than others.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting and processing a QuickChannelInfo block is described. It is determined if a superframe is with odd superframe index. A QuickChannelInfo block is transmitted in every superframe with an odd supreframe index. The contents of the QuickChannelInfo block are changed in accordance with the QuickChannelInfo Validity field of the QuickChannelInfo block. It is determined if multi-carrier mode is MultiCarrierOn.The QuickChannelInfo block is transmitted on each carrier. The QuickChannelInfo block is transmitted over the communication. The QuickChannelInfo block is processed after the QuickChannelInfo block is received over a communication link.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for ZoneCode-based registration is described. A list of RegistrationZoneCodes is stored, wherein the list of RegistrationZoneCodes is associated with subnets visited by the access terminal. It is determined if a protocol cache information is keyed by a (Subnet, RegistrationZoneCode) pair. The cached information is deleted when the (Subnet, RegistrationZoneCode) pair is deleted from a RegistrationZoneCodeList. N OMPMinZoneSignatureListSize entries are stored in the RegistrationZoneCodeList. It is determined if the (Subnet, RegistrationZoneCode) pair from a SectorParameters message from a sector in an Active Set is not included in the RegistrationZoneCodeList. The (Subnet, RegistrationZoneCode) pair entry from a SectorParameters message from a sector in an Active Set are added to the RegistrationZoneCodeList. An ActiveSetManagement.SendPilotReport command is generated. It is determined if there are more entries in the RegistrationZoneCodeList than the supported size of the RegistrationZoneCodeList. The oldest (Subnet, RegistrationZoneCode) pair entries are deleted in the RegistrationZoneCodeList.
