Abstract:
Systems, methods and apparatus for quality of service (QoS) flows in a communication system are provided. In one aspect a method is providing for establishing a QoS flow for an application in a user equipment device. The method includes receiving QoS information from one of an application and a network. The method further includes establishing a QoS communication flow for the application based on the received information. The method also includes receiving QoS information from the other of the application and the network and modifying the established QoS communication flow based on the additional information.
Abstract:
Techniques for managing resources on a wireless device are described. In an aspect, congestion of resources on the wireless device may be detected. If any resources are deemed to be congested, then congestion of the congested resources may be relieved by controlling utilization of the congested resources by at least one client. In one design, flow control may be performed for at least one data flow to relieve congestion of the congested resources. A pattern indicative of when to send messages enabling data transmission and when to send messages disabling data transmission may be selected. Messages may then be sent in accordance with the pattern to control transmission of data for the at least one data flow. Another pattern with a higher ON fraction or a lower ON fraction may be selected based on usage of the congested resources.
Abstract:
A method is performed by a device. The method includes determining whether the device is allowed to attach to an operator network based at least partially on whether all access point names in a minimum access point name list are enabled in the device. The device allows itself to attach to the operator network if it is determined that the device is allowed to attach to the operator network. The device prevents itself from attaching to the operator network if it is determined that the device is not allowed to attach to the operator network. The device can wirelessly receive a command to disable an access point name in the device. If an access point name on a detach access point name list is disabled, then the device detaches from the operator network and prevents itself from reattaching until an integrated circuit card in the device is removed and replaced.

Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for wireless communications, wherein distinct port partitions are assigned to processing entities on a user equipment device. Doing so provides the processing entities with concurrent access to the single PDN connection.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for releasing stale connection contexts are provided herein. The systems and methods help to ensure that connection records between mobile devices and communications nodes are synchronized so as to avoid and/or fix stale connection contexts.
Abstract:
A method for inter-modem coordination is described. A first data connection to a network in a first network coverage area using a first air interface provided by a first modem is established. The method also includes detecting a second network coverage area with a second air interface provided by a second modem. A data call state of the second modem is determined by the first modem. The first data connection to the network by the first modem is terminated when the data call state of the second modem is no data call. A data call state of the first modem is determined by the second modem. A second data connection to the network using the second air interface provided by the second modem is initiated when the data call state of the first modem is no data call.
Abstract:
A method for maintaining IP context during an inter RAT handover of a UE between an eHRPD network and an LTE network may include delaying a transfer of an Internet Protocol context for at least one active packet data network until an IP address for an attach (PDN) Packet Data Network has been assigned and in the case where the Internet Protocol address for the Attach Packet Data Network is not assigned, initiating a detach operation from the LTE network without the user equipment losing the Internet Protocol context of the at least one active Packet Data Network.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for avoiding conflicts between evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Services (eMBMS) operations and paging and/or mobile originated (MO) operations in communication systems. A method for wireless communications by a user Equipment (UE) is provided. The method generally includes identifying at least one evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS) session available for receiving one or more eMBMS services from a base station. The method also includes taking one or more actions to reduce a conflict between receiving the one or more eMBMS services from the base station and receiving a paging message from the base station during the eMBMS session. Numerous other aspects are provided.
