Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communication devices and methods configured to operate with multiple communication protocols in tune-away operations. Some aspects of the present disclosure may improve the legacy tune-away operations at an access terminal. An access terminal establishes a call utilizing a first communication protocol, tunes away from the call to receive cell signaling utilizing a second communication protocol, and tunes back to the call utilizing the first communication protocol. Following the tuning back, during a first predetermined number of subframes and if the size of a reverse link (RL) packet is smaller than a first packet size and larger than a second packet size, the access terminal forces the RL packet to be a low latency (LoLat) packet.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for allocating transmit power among multiple interfaces in a wireless communication system are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises determining a first power level used for transmission over a first air interface, determining a second power level used for transmission over a second air interface, comparing a composite of the first power level and the second power level to a threshold power level, and adjusting the second power level based on the comparison.

Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure can improve the round trip time delay of reverse link transmissions of an access terminal. The access terminal determines a first traffic-to-pilot power (T2P) ratio after a session negotiation. Then, the access terminal determines a second T2P ratio of a first subpacket of a physical layer packet, wherein the second T2P ratio may be boosted relative to the first T2P ratio. The access terminal transmits the at least one subpacket at the second T2P ratio utilizing a reverse link. Therefore, the physical layer packet may be early terminated, and round trip time delay of the reverse link may be reduced.
