Abstract:
Techniques are described for wireless communication. A method for wireless communication at a wireless device includes comparing a count of channels used by a group of neighboring cells to a maximum number of channels allowed for use by the group of neighboring cells; identifying a channel list based at least in part on the comparing, where the identified channel list is based at least in part on a list of candidate channels allowed for use by a wireless communication system or a list of the channels used by the group of neighboring cells; and selecting a channel for wireless communication from the identified channel list.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided that include calibrating transmit power of a femto node based on measuring one or more parameters related to usage of the femto node. The femto node can temporarily increase transmit power and analyze received measurement reports to determine a transmit power calibration. The femto node can additionally measure uplink received signal strength indicators over multiple time periods following handover of a user equipment (UE) to determine whether to increase transmit power to cover the UE.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for managing a radio connection between a mobile device and a base station of a radio access network. A determination is made that the mobile device is in a standby state. The radio connection transitions to a high power state while the mobile device is in the standby state. A net number of transport layer connections for the mobile device are identified. The transport layer connections are Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) sockets. A net count of transport layer connections opened and closed while the radio connection is in the high power state is calculated. Dormancy of the radio connection is initiated when the mobile device is in the standby state, based at least in part on the calculated net count of transport layer connections.

Abstract:
Systems, methods and apparatus for communication are provided. In one aspect, a method of communication for an application running on an application layer of a first wireless host is provided. The method comprises communicating, via the application layer, a first data flow to a second wireless host over a first application connection on a first access network. The method further comprises determining, at the application, one or more channel quality metrics of each of the first application connection and an accessible second application connection on a second access network based on channel quality metrics. The method further comprises establishing, via the application layer, the second application connection with the second wireless host over the second access network based on the one or more channel quality metrics of one both of the first and second application connections.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive downlink data that is associated with triggering a feedback message; transmit, before receiving the feedback message for the downlink data at a component of the user equipment, a scheduling request to request an allocation of a set of resources for transmitting the feedback message; and transmit the feedback message in connection with the set of resources. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may transmit assistance information to a base station to request an update or a modification to one or more communication parameters configured at the UE. Such communication parameters may include a quantity of uplink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers, a quantity of downlink MIMO layers, a minimum scheduling offset, a maximum quantity of component carriers, or a maximum aggregated bandwidth for a secondary cell group (SCG). In some implementations, the UE may transmit the assistance information requesting the update or modification to one or more of such communication parameters based on detecting that the UE satisfies one or more triggering conditions or thresholds.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods of wireless communications include, at a receiving node, receiving timing information corresponding to a traffic class identifier. The timing information being associated with a time interval for communicating data of a traffic class corresponding to the traffic class identifier. Aspects include receiving traffic data pertaining to the traffic class, determining that the traffic data was transmitted or is received outside the time interval, and then buffering the traffic data. Additionally, aspects include forwarding the traffic data in response to a next occurrence of the time interval. A transmitting node may be configured with complimentary functions.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a synchronization signal block associated with a first channel number as part of a scan, wherein the synchronization signal block indicates a second channel number corresponding to a cell-defining synchronization signal block. The UE may attempt acquisition for the cell-defining synchronization signal block at an elevated priority level based at least in part on the synchronization signal block indicating the second channel number. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide time synchronization via wireless communications for devices that use strict timing synchronization. A user equipment (UE) may obtain time synchronization via a wireless connection between the UE and a timing source that may be associated with a base station (or another wireless device). In some cases, the timing source may be synchronized at the UE by determining, using periodic synchronization resources, a propagation delay between the UE and the base station that is based on a timing of a line-of-sight instance of a transmission between the base station and the UE. The propagation delay may be used to determine a timing advance value for use in timing synchronization. One or more devices may be coupled with the UE and the UE may provide commands to the one or more devices that are synchronized according to the synchronized timing source.
