Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are provided for mobility management for wireless communications systems that utilize a flexible bandwidth carrier. Some embodiments include approaches for determining bandwidth information, such as one or more bandwidth scaling factors N and/or flexible bandwidths, at a user equipment (UE), where the bandwidth information may not be signaled to the UE. Embodiments for determining bandwidth information include: random ordered bandwidth scaling factor approaches, delay ordered bandwidth scaling factor approaches, storing bandwidth scaling factor value in UE Neighbor Record approaches, spectrum measurement approaches, spectrum calculation approaches, and/or a priori approaches. Flexible bandwidth carrier systems may utilize spectrum portions that may not be big enough to fit a normal waveform. Flexible bandwidth carrier systems may be generated through dilating, or scaling down, time, frame lengths, bandwidth, or the chip rate of the flexible bandwidth carrier systems with respect to a normal bandwidth carrier system.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may determine a capability of the UE to support multiple subscriber identity modules (SIMs). The multiple SIMs may enable the UE to communicate with multiple network nodes. The UE may notify at least one network node of the multiple network nodes of the multiple SIM capability of the UE.

Systems and methods are described herein, a method including, but not limited to, transmitting, at a first frame time, a first number of redundant data packets; transmitting, at a second frame time, a second number of redundant data packets in response to data packet loss beyond a predetermined tolerance level, the second number being greater than the first number; and transmitting, at a third frame time, a third number of redundant data packets, the third number is between the first number and the second number.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, and computer program products providing power savings in Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS)-configured Voice over Long Term Evolution (VoLTE) with Connected State Discontinuous Reception (C-DRX) are provided. The apparatus may be a user equipment (UE). The UE receives a packet when the UE is in a persistent scheduling mode. The UE transmits a negative-acknowledgement (NACK) message when the packet is not successfully decoded. The UE refrains from transmitting an acknowledgement (ACK) message when the packet is successfully decoded. The UE may enter a power save state immediately after the packet is successfully decoded. The packet may be addressed to the UE in a unicast message. The packet may be received during an on-duration of a C-DRX cycle. The packet my include VoLTE downlink (DL) traffic. The packet may be received on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH).
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The method and apparatus resolve issues related to voice and data handovers between micro cells, femto cells and other small cells, and to handovers from macro cells to small cells are becoming increasingly significant as small cells are more widely deployed. In order to handoff a call associated with a user equipment, a base station attempts to identify neighboring cells that are within communication range of the user equipment based on a primary scrambling code and delays between multiple transmissions of the PSC detected by the user equipment and reported to the base station by the user equipment.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are provided that may support signaling, such as a Signaling Radio Bearer (SRB), over a flexible bandwidth carrier. For example, an SRB rate for a SRB over for a normal bandwidth carrier may be identified. A Transmission Time Interval (TTI) may be determined for the SRB over for the flexible bandwidth carrier that facilitates a SRB rate of the SRB over the flexible bandwidth carrier that maintains at least the SRB rate for the SRB over the normal bandwidth carrier. The determined TTI may be utilized for the SRB over the flexible bandwidth carrier, which may help avoid increased call setup delay, increased latency for handover, etc. that may be introduced in flexible bandwidth carrier systems. Some embodiments may include reducing spreading factors, increasing transmission power, and/or concatenating multiple transport blocks with respect to the SRB over the flexible bandwidth carrier.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are provided for discontinuous transmission (DTX) in systems that utilize one or more flexible bandwidth carriers. Tools and techniques are provided that may help ensure signaling alignment, such as with respect to DTX cycles, in systems that may utilize one or more flexible bandwidth carriers. Such methods may include identifying at least a DTX cycle for a first cell or a DTX cycle for a second cell, wherein at least the first cell or the second cell utilizes at least one of the one or more flexible bandwidth carriers; and adjusting one or more DTX parameters for at least the first cell or the second cell to align the DTX cycle for the second cell with the DTX cycle for the first cell such that the DTX cycle for the second cell at least partially overlaps the DTX cycle for the first cell.
Abstract:
A vehicle may transmit, to a network entity, a lane use request message associated with a lane for the vehicle. The network entity may identify lane information associated with a lane for a vehicle. The network entity may identify vehicle information associated with the vehicle. The network entity may transmit, to the vehicle, and the vehicle may receive, from the network entity, a lane use grant message based on at least one of the identified lane information or the identified vehicle information. The lane use grant message may be indicative of a permission for the vehicle to use the lane. The vehicle may not be permitted to use the lane without the permission. The lane may correspond to a flexible direction lane, an emergency lane, a road shoulder, an HOV lane, or a passing lane.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, over a first frequency band, a first vehicle safety message indicating location information of a second wireless device. The UE may perform, with the second wireless device over a second frequency band that differs from the first frequency band, a beam sweeping procedure using a first subset of beams from a plurality of available beams to determine one or more beams of the first subset of beams to be used for communication with the second wireless device, each beam of the first subset of beams being oriented at least partially in a direction corresponding to the location information of the second wireless device. The UE may communicate, over the second frequency band, one or more messages with the second wireless device used the one or more beams of the first subset of beams.
