Abstract: A hybrid device can implement functionality to automatically configure itself to form a home network with other network devices. If it is determined that the hybrid device is the central access point of a hybrid network, operating parameters are determined for the central access point. The central access point can then operate in conjunction with other non-CAP hybrid devices of the hybrid device to determine how to configure the non-CAP hybrid device. The configuration of the non-CAP hybrid device can be determined based, at least in part, on a communication link performance measurement between the CAP and the non-CAP hybrid device. Furthermore, the hybrid network can also be monitored to ensure that the hybrid devices do not repeatedly or randomly switch between different configurations.

Abstract: Techniques for prioritizing user equipments (UEs) for switching between wireless systems are disclosed. The wireless systems may be part of a small cell and may include a WLAN system and a cellular system. In one design, a network entity (e.g., the small cell) may identify a plurality of UEs communicating with a first wireless system. The first wireless system may be one of a plurality of wireless systems providing communication coverage for the UEs. The network entity may determine priorities of the UEs for switching from the first wireless system to a second wireless system. The network entity may then select at least one UE among the plurality of UEs to switch from the first wireless system to the second wireless system based on the priorities of the UEs.

Abstract: Techniques for switching a user equipment (UE) between wireless systems by first establishing a connection with a target system before disconnecting from a serving system are disclosed. In one design, the UE may initially communicate with a first wireless system (e.g., a WLAN system) of a first radio technology. The UE may receive a page to establish a connection with a second wireless system (e.g., a cellular system) of a second radio technology. The first and second wireless systems may be part of a small cell. The page may be sent by the second wireless system to the UE in response to a decision by a network entity to switch the UE from the first wireless system to the second wireless system. The UE may establish a connection with the second wireless system in response to the page and may thereafter terminate communication with the first wireless system.

Abstract: A first AP in a wireless network determines that a wireless client device should re-associate from the first AP to a second AP of the wireless network. The first AP communicates an AP coordination message from the first AP to the second AP to share coordination information with the second AP. The first AP coordinates with the second AP to cause the re-association of the wireless client device in accordance with the coordination information. The first and second AP may coordinate directly to synchronize re-association activities. Re-association activities may include the use of a configuration message to the wireless client device, managing transmit power of beacon messages from the first and second APs, or forced disassociation and blocking. The first AP may maintain a record of which re-association activity was successful in causing the wireless client device to re-associate to the second AP.

Abstract translation: 无线网络中的第一AP确定无线客户端设备应该从第一AP重新关联到无线网络的第二AP。 第一AP将AP协调消息从第一AP传送到第二AP，以与第二AP共享协调信息。 第一AP与第二AP协调，以根据协调信息使无线客户端设备重新关联。 第一个和第二个AP可以直接协调重新协作活动的同步。 重新关联活动可以包括向无线客户端设备使用配置消息，管理来自第一AP和第二AP的信标消息的发送功率，或强制解除关闭和阻塞。 第一AP可以保持其中关联活动成功地使无线客户端设备重新关联到第二AP的记录。

Abstract: Low-power access points are used to identify traffic congestion zones in a network. The low-power access points collect metrics that are used identify high demand areas. The locations of the traffic congestion zones are then determined based on the locations of the low-power access points that identified high demand. In some embodiments, metrics are collected and processed in a distributed fashion at each femtocell. Each femtocell then outputs an indication of high demand in the area and/or takes action to address the high demand at an identified traffic congestion zone. Alternatively, the femtocells may collectively take action to address the high demand at one or more identified traffic congestion zones. In other embodiments, metrics may be collected from the femtocells at a central entity and processed to identifying any traffic congestion zones near the femtocells, whereby the central entity takes appropriate action to address the high demand.

Abstract: A headless device does not have a user interface that conveniently allows the user to enter a custom name for the headless device. In this disclosure, a custom name may be determined (either automatically or via user input) at a user device, such as a user device that has a user interface. The custom name may be based on the type of device, location, services, and/or other information about the headless device. The custom name is introduced to the communications network in association with a network address of the headless device. In some embodiments, forged messages based on conventional network protocols may be used to associate the custom name with the network address of the headless device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided that facilitate providing access point measurements to restricted access points. Restricted access points can lessen restrictions to allow devices to register with the restricted access point for providing measurements thereto. Additionally or alternatively, access point measurements can be provided to a minimization of drive tests (MDT) server for providing to the restricted access points. Thus, restricted access points can obtain the access point measurements for performing enhanced interference management or other functionality based at least in part on the measurements.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying an address of a femto node during handoff of an access terminal from a femto node to a macro node. In one embodiment, the femto node assigns a unique identifier to the access terminal. The access terminal passes the unique identifier to the macro node. The macro node partitions the unique identifier to determine the address of the femto node. In another embodiment, the femto node registers its address with a domain name system. The macro node queries the domain name system to obtain the address of the femto node. In another embodiment, the macro node sends the unique identifier to a proxy. The proxy partitions the unique identifier to determine the address of the femto node.
