Abstract:
The disclosure provides for a compressed mode transmission gap in wireless communications. A user equipment (UE) may receiving a downlink dedicated physical channel (DPCH) having a slot-format and a spreading factor during a first compression interval. The downlink DPCH may not include a compressed-mode transmission gap during the first compression interval. The UE may receive the downlink DPCH having the same slot-format and the same spreading factor during a second compression interval. The UE may determine that the downlink DPCH includes a compressed-mode transmission gap during the second compression interval. A set of slots of the downlink DPCH during the transmission gap may be punctured. The UE may decode the downlink DPCH for the second compression interval based on a set of remaining slots received during the second compression interval. In an aspect, the UE may estimate a SIR based on a TPC command in a last slot of the transmission gap.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for communication including determining an assignment for one of a plurality of symbol durations in a format combination; determining if at least one bit from one or more first upper channels is available if the assignment is associated with the one or more first upper channels and occupying the one of the plurality of symbol durations with the at least one bit, or if unavailable, occupying the one of the plurality of symbol durations with at least one bit from one or more second upper channels or another first upper channel, wherein the first upper channels and the second upper channels are different; and disabling transmission of format information; or including enabling a BTFD hypothesis testing mode; receiving one or more symbol durations on a physical channel; and attempting to decode the received symbol duration with a first hypothesis that a DCCH channel is not transmitted.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for wireless communication in a wireless communication network that includes receiving a plurality of data packets, wherein the plurality of data packets includes one or more indication bits for each of the plurality of data packets, and wherein the one or more indication bits embedded in each of the plurality data packets includes information about additional transport channels. Aspects of the methods and apparatus include early decoding of the plurality of data packets. Aspects also include retrieving the one or more indication bits from one or more of the plurality of data packets which have been successfully early decoded. Aspects also include determining an existence of additional transport channels based on the one or more indication bits.

Abstract:
The present disclosure presents aspects for performing continuous packet connectivity (CPC) with dedicated channel (DCH) enhancements at a user equipment (UE). For example, the aspects may include identifying whether DTX is allowed in association with the CPC at the UE during a time period, determining whether DTX is allowed in association with the DCH enhancements at the UE during the time period, and performing DTX at the UE during the time period when both the CPC and the DCH enhancements allow for DTX. As such, CPC with DCH enhancements at a UE may be performed.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosures are directed to outer loop power control (OLPC) mechanisms that can achieve or realize the desired block error rate (BLER) performance in a wireless network that supports frame early termination (FET) utilizing multiple decoding attempts during the same transmit time interval.
Abstract:
Disclosed are apparatus and method for time division multiplexing of a dedicated channel. In one aspect, the apparatus and method are configured to assign a common spreading code to two or more User Equipments (UEs); encode a downlink (DL) dedicated channel (DCH) with the common spreading code; time-division multiplex a Dedicated Physical Data Channel (DPDCH) data for each of the two or more UEs on the encoded DL DCH; and transmit the multiplexed data on the DL DCH to the UEs.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for low overhead paging in a wireless communications network are described herein. In one aspect, a wireless communications device comprises a processor and a transmitter. The processor is configured to compress a bitmap of a paging message to obtain a compressed paging message. The bitmap is associated with a plurality of receiver identifiers, and each of the plurality of receiver identifiers associated with at least one receiver of a set of receivers. The compressed bitmap comprises a block bitmap and a plurality of sub-block bitmaps. Each bit of the block bitmap comprises a logical OR of a subset of the bitmap, and each sub-block bitmap corresponds to a bit of the block bitmap. The transmitter is electronically coupled with the processor and configured to transmit the compressed paging message to at least one receiver.
