Abstract:
A method for wireless communication may comprise, for example, automatically determining first power settings for a first radio access technology (RAT) based on second power settings for a second RAT, and automatically applying the first power settings as power settings for the first RAT.
Abstract:
Wireless communication in a heterogeneous network may be facilitated by establishing connections with femto nodes based on page notifications from macro nodes to user equipment (UE). A UE in idle mode may monitor paging resources provided by a macro node, discover presence of a femto node based on signals received from the femto node, and establish a communicative connection with the femto node based on a page notification received from the macro node over the paging resources.
Abstract:
The present disclosure presents methods and apparatuses for improved paging area identifier selection in low power base stations. In some examples described in the present disclosure, a method is provided for updating a paging area identifier, which may include observing one or more parameters of signals received in a wireless network, updating a previously selected paging area identifier to a new paging area identifier based at least in part on the one or more parameters, and transmitting the new paging area identifier. In addition, example methods are provided for paging devices in a wireless network, which may include determining a paging area identifier related to a last known low power base station for a device, determining a plurality of low power base stations using the paging area identifier, and causing the plurality of low power base stations to transmit a paging signal for the device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to techniques to increase reliability of communications within a network during a low reliability period. The network may include a user equipment (UE) communicatively coupled with one or more transmit/receive points (TRPs), with the communications between the UE and the one more TRPs requiring a reliability above a first reliability threshold. A processor of a network entity may identify a low reliability period which occurs when the reliability of the communications is determined to be below a second reliability threshold. The processor may cause the network to perform one or more remedial actions to increase the reliability during the low reliability period.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive a first set of power control parameters and a second set of power control parameters; transmit a first transmission based at least in part on the first set of power control parameters; and transmit a second transmission based at least in part on the second set of power control parameters, wherein the second transmission is a retransmission of the first transmission. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for spectrum access server support of resource assignments based on radio access network coexistence information. An example method generally includes obtaining information regarding capability of different entities requesting use of the shared radio resources, estimating compatibility between the different entities based on the information, and allocating the shared radio resources to the different entities based on the estimated compatibility.
Abstract:
The disclosure is related to small cell base station power management within a wireless network. In an aspect, at least one metric related to operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station is determined, a reliability state of the small cell base station is determined based on the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station, and one or more operational parameters of the small cell base station are adjusted based on the determined reliability state.
Abstract:
The present disclosure presents aspects for managing performance of a wireless network. For example, the aspects may include identifying a backhaul condition at a small cell in the wireless network wherein the backhaul condition is associated with one or more of a backhaul latency measurement, a backhaul error rate, or a backhaul jitter value at the small cell and triggering an action at the small cell in response to identifying the backhaul condition at the small cell, wherein triggering the action at the small cell includes modifying one or more resource management parameters at the small cell based on the backhaul condition. As such, performance of a wireless network may be managed.
Abstract:
A timer parameter used for transitioning between radio protocol states is adapted based on a change of a handover parameter. For example, as a direct result of a change in a handover parameter such as time-to-trigger, offset, or hysteresis, an inactivity timer that is used for switching an access terminal from a connected state to an idle state may be adapted. As another example, as a direct result of a change in a handover parameter, a radio link failure (RLF) timer that is used for switching an access terminal to an RLF state may be adapted.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided that include adjusting rise-over-thermal (RoT) or noise rise (NR) threshold based on detecting interference from one or more devices. A device can communicate within close proximity of a femto node such that the device does not respond to power down commands from the femto node due to operating at a minimum transmit power. The device can cause the RoT or NR at the femto node to potentially rise over a threshold, however. Thus, the femto node can increase the RoT or NR threshold to allow the device to communicate with the femto node without impacting other devices communicating with the femto node. Out-of-cell interference from devices communicating with other base stations can be detected as well, and the RoT or NR threshold can be adjusted based thereon.
