Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and apparatus for detecting handover failures at an AP when the AP does not have an X2 interface with at least one of its neighbors. For example, methods are provided for detecting handover failures at an AP based on at least on a UE context release command message received from a mobile management entity (MME) and/or determining that a radio resource control (RRC) connection reconfiguration (RCR) message is not delivered to the UE.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method, an apparatus, and a computer readable medium for managing handovers at a base station. For example, the method may include receiving a request for STX to one or more connected user equipments (UEs), identifying whether one or more conditions have to be satisfied prior to initiating of the STX, and determining whether the one or more conditions are satisfied. The example method further includes initiating the STX at the base station in response to the identifying and the determining and performing a corrective action for managing the handovers in response to the initiating of the STX.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting location services for a home Node B (HNB) and its user equipments (UEs) are disclosed. In an aspect, location services may be supported for a UE by having an HNB inter-work between user plane and control plane location solutions. In one design, the HNB receives a request for a location service for the UE and communicates (i) with a location server via the user plane location solution and (ii) with the UE via the control plane location solution to support the location service for the UE. The HNB inter-works between the user plane and control plane location solutions. In another aspect, a location server may be used to support assisted GNSS (A-GNSS) for HNBs and UEs. In one design, an HNB exchanges PCAP messages with the location server via an HNB GW and exchanges RRC messages with a UE to support a location service for the UE.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate communicating PSC split information regarding neighboring cells. The PSC split information can be transmitted in one or more overhead messages selected based on network deployment. Where macro cells and femto cells provide PSC split information, which can be a PSC range for related cells, PSC list, etc., the information can be transmitted in a low priority overhead message since it can be obtained at a source cell. Where only femto cells or closed subscriber group (CSG) cells provide PSC split information, the information can be transmitted in a higher priority more frequently transmitted message. In this regard, the information is available at target cells since not all devices can access CSG cells. Thus, by providing the PSC split information in a more frequently transmitted message, devices can retrieve the PSC split information early on in communications to lower power consumption.

Abstract: A system performs an over-the-air transmission from a source small cell to a destination small cell. A channel for the over-the-air transmission is selected based on information to be sent. The system determines an information attribute for an over-the-air transmission from the source small cell to the destination small cell. The system selects an over-the-air channel, from a set of channels, based on the information attribute. The source small cell sends the over-the-air transmission on the selected over-the-air channel to the destination small cell.

Abstract: The present disclosure presents methods and apparatuses for improved paging area identifier selection in femto nodes and other low power base stations. In some examples described in the present disclosure, a method is provided for selecting a paging area identifier at a low power base station, which includes determining whether a neighboring high power base station is detectable. Additionally, the method can include observing, where the neighboring high power base station is detectable, a broadcasted paging area identifier of the neighboring high power base station. Furthermore, example methods may include selecting a paging area identifier of the low power base station to be the broadcasted paging area identifier and transmitting the paging area identifier.

Abstract: Access terminals are provisioned to conduct intra-frequency, inter-frequency, and inter-RAT measurements and report physical layer identifiers of detected cells. The provisioning may involve cycling through all or a portion of a defined superset of physical layer identifier one subset at a time. In addition, the physical layer identifiers may be prioritized to improve the search procedure. Measurement report messages (including physical layer identifiers of the detected cells) are received at an access point as a result of the provisioning. A neighbor cell list for the femtocell is maintained based on the received measurement report messages and, optionally, other information. This other information may related to, for example, one or more of: physical layer identifier information received from access terminals that register with the access point, physical layer identifier information received via network listen operations, information regarding co-located cells, or physical layer identifier information received from a network entity.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate multiplexing communications from multiple downstream access points to one or more mobility management entities (MME). In particular, a concentrator component is provided that can establish a single transport layer connection with an MME along with multiple application layer connections over the single transport layer connection for each of multiple downstream access points and/or related mobile devices. The downstream access points and/or mobile devices can provide identifiers, such as tracking identifiers, to the concentrator component, which can utilize the identifiers to track communications with the MME. In this regard, the MME can send paging messages, and the concentrator component can determine downstream access points related to the paging messages based on a stored association with a tracking identifier in the paging message.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for regulating system reselections by idle-mode mobile devices. In one aspect, a femtocell may be configured to reduce frequency of its reselection beacon, which reduces probability that a fast moving mobile device will detect the reselection beacon and reselect to that femtocell. This aspect may also delay femtocell reselection for slow moving mobile devices. In another aspect, a macrocell may slow down system reselection by adjusting cell reselection parameters used by mobile devices to determine the time needed to evaluate cell reselection criteria. Yet in another aspect, a macrocell may instruct a collocated femtocell to decrease its effective coverage area to avoid premature reselection by fast moving mobile devices. Yet in another aspect, a femtocell may use power boosting techniques to increase its reselection radius.
