Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes receiving an uplink grant when a plurality of pending HARQ processes are waiting to perform retransmission. The method also includes selecting a HARQ process, from the plurality of pending HARQ processes, to terminate early based at least in part on an associated quality of service parameter. The method further includes terminating the selected HARQ process when the uplink grant is insufficient to perform the retransmission for the plurality of pending HARQ processes.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication increases the gap length for performing IRAT measurements. When a radio bearer transmission time interval (TTI) length is greater than an initial gap length, the gap length is increased to provide additional time for performing IRAT measurement.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes receiving, from an user equipment (UE), a report of relative neighbor cell path loss levels and corresponding neighbor cell indexes for intra-frequency neighbor cells. The method also includes receiving, from a radio network controller (RNC), uplink loading conditions for the intra-frequency neighbor cells. The method further includes allocating a power grant based on the relative neighbor cell path loss levels and the uplink loading conditions.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication includes transmitting an abbreviated scheduling request indicating a general size of a first grant when a UE has buffered data. A detailed schedule request is transmitted and indicates a specific size of a second grant after receiving the first grant. The second grant is adjusted based on the detailed scheduling request.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication in a wireless network includes transmitting synchronization shift (SS) bits with a channel quality index (CQI) report. The method also includes indicating, via the synchronization shift bits, one or more preferred time slots for receiving a high speed data transmission.
Abstract:
A system acquisition is initiated to perform inter radio access technology (IRAT) measurement. A waiting period of time is provided before aborting the system acquisition. The period of time is adjustable based on at least one metric. The metric can be a frequency of available measurement gaps, a total number of available measurement gaps, and/or a length of each measurement gap within a subframe. The metric could also be an absolute signal strength of a single neighbor cell and/or a relative signal strength between neighbor cells. The metric could also be a user equipment (UE) measured signal strength compared to a network indicated threshold value for triggering an IRAT measurement report. The metric could also be a percentage of a tone that falls within a measurement gap.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive information that indicates one or more parameters that correspond to one or more initial active bandwidth parts (BWPs), each initial active BWP being smaller than a full available BWP. The UE may select an initial active BWP from the one or more initial active BWPs. The UE may transmit a random access channel message based at least in part on a first parameter, of the one or more parameters, that corresponds to the selected initial active BWP. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for connected mode discontinuous reception (C-DRX) on/off synchronization coordination between user equipment and network are disclosed herein. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a UE capability message that indicates that the UE has capability to support C-DRX on/off synchronization coordination with the network entity. The UE may receive a DRX synchronization coordination configuration based on the UE capability message, the DRX synchronization coordination configuration configuring the UE with the C-DRX on/off synchronization coordination with the network entity. The UE may determine that an inactivity timer associated with the DRX synchronization coordination configuration is within a threshold time to expire, and transmit special uplink signaling indicating that the UE intends to transition into an off duration in a DRX cycle based on the inactivity timer being within the threshold time to expire.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) avoids or reduces a “ping pong” scenario when the UE repeatedly transitions between a current serving cell and one or more previous serving cells of a dedicated network in high speed scenarios. In one instance, the UE determines whether a target cell for handover or cell reselection of the UE is one of N previous serving cells, when the UE is in the high speed scenario. The UE also increases a cell reselection threshold and/or measurement reporting threshold for handover or reselection when the target cell is one of the N previous serving cells. The UE can also adjust a measurement frequency of the previous N serving cells when in a high speed state. New neighbor cells will not have their threshold or measurement frequency adjusted.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) reduces latency of measurement procedures when the UE leaves a coverage area of a serving radio access technology (RAT) and enters a coverage area of a neighbor RAT. In one instance, the UE performs inter-RAT measurements of neighbor frequencies of the neighbor RAT during a measurement gap allocated by a base station of the serving RAT. The UE also determines whether to switch a frequency of the neighbor RAT for decoding a synchronization channel during the measurement gap of the serving RAT. The determining is based on whether a difference between a signal quality of a first frequency of the neighbor RAT and a signal quality of a second frequency of the neighbor RAT exceeds a threshold.
