Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may identify radio access technology (RAT) state information associated with the UE, the RAT state information including an indication of whether the UE is operating in a steady state or is operating in a transition state. The UE may adapt a codec rate associated with an application of the UE based at least in part on whether the UE is operating in the steady state or is operating in the transition state. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, at a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, a packet having a PDCP sequence number. The UE may determine whether the received packet, having the PDCP sequence number, satisfies one or more reordering criteria. The UE may discard, before an expiration of a reordering timer, the received packet based at least in part on the determination of whether the received packet satisfies the one or more reordering criteria. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to identifying a cell as a handover candidate in coverage areas based on decoding a secondary synchronization signal and/or a primary broadcast channel of the handover candidate cell. An example method generally includes initiating a search for a secondary synchronization signal (SSS) for a first cell of one or more handover candidate cells, and reporting the first cell as a handover candidate in a measurement report if the SSS for the first cell is detected a threshold number of times.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for adaptive antenna switching for measurements, for example, in high gain automotive devices. According to certain aspects, a method is provided herein for wireless communications. The method generally includes selecting, based on one or more conditions, a first measurement configuration that uses at least an external antenna mounted on a surface of a vehicle for one or more measurements or a second measurement configuration that uses at least an internal antenna associated with the vehicle for the one or more measurements; performing the one or more measurements using the selected measurement configuration; and sending a report based on the one or more measurements. The techniques for measurement configuration selection may allow the device to achieve the benefits of both the high gain external antenna and the lower gain internal antenna(s) depending on the current conditions.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may include memory and at least one processor, coupled to the memory, configured to determine a power parameter associated with communication using a first radio access technology (RAT). The at least one processor may be further configured to determine a quality parameter associated with the communication using the first RAT. The at least one processor may be further configured to apply, based on the quality parameter, an offset to the power parameter to form a modified power parameter. The at least one processor may be further configured to transmit a measurement report including the modified power parameter. The apparatus may be a wireless device, such as a user equipment (UE) and, more specifically, a high gain UE.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus may include at least one processor configured to initiate a voice call using a first network, determine that a condition exists, and switch the voice call from the first network to a second network after the determination that the condition exists. The first network may be a packet-switched network, the second network may a circuit-switched network, and the condition may be that the packet-switched network has poor coverage quality. Alternatively, the first network may be a circuit-switched network, the second network may a packet-switched network, and the condition may be that the packet-switched network has improved coverage quality. Optionally, a user may be prompted to perform the switch and the user may provide an input to perform the switch. The switch may performed using SRVCC or RRC signaling.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may obtain a band priority list identifying a set of bands in a prioritized order. The UE may perform a system scan of one or more bands of a frequency list that are associated with at least a threshold energy level in the prioritized order of the one or more bands in the band priority list. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Aspects herein describe utilizing semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) resources in wireless communications. An indication to retransmit information for SPS resources can be received from an access point. It can be determined that a SPS activation for the SPS resources is not received from the access point. Based on this determination, one or more signals can be transmitted.
Abstract:
An apparatus for selective usage of antennas for measurement purposes is provided. When the signal strength of the primary antenna is less than a signal strength threshold or the signal quality of the primary antenna is less than a signal quality threshold, the apparatus may determine at least one of whether a first difference between the signal strength of the primary antenna and the diversity antenna satisfies a first criteria or whether a second difference between the signal quality of the primary antenna and the diversity antenna satisfies a second criteria. When at least one of the first difference satisfies the first criteria or the second difference satisfies the second criteria, the apparatus may calculate the signal strength and signal quality of the diversity antenna for measurement evaluations and path-loss calculation based on the signal strength and signal quality of the primary antenna.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the claimed invention generally relate to a network dynamically configuring one or more cells based on signal quality measurements received from all antennas of a receiver-limited UE. The receiver-limited UE may have a number of receivers that is less than or equal to a number of antennas of the UE. Further, the UE may be capable of operating in a CA mode. Dynamically configuring the one or more cells based, at least in part, on the received signal quality measurements may allow the UE to operate on M×N MIMO on the Pcell or Scell.
