Abstract: Access terminals are adapted to facilitate extended time periods for maintaining PPP sessions. According to one example, an access terminal can communicate with a network entity to establish a PPP session maintained by an extended time period. The extended time frame can be different (e.g., greater or less) than a default time period for maintaining the PPP session. For instance, the access terminal may establish a PPP session including a PPP connection. The access terminal may also send a persistence indicator to the network entity to cause setting the extended time period for maintaining the PPP session. The network entity may receive the persistence indicator and accordingly employ a differing time period (e.g., an extended time period) for maintaining the PPP session. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.

Abstract: Access terminals are adapted to communicate with registration servers to enable a registration server to perform timer-based registrations on behalf of an access terminal. The access terminal can cease performing such timer-based registrations as long as the registration server performs the registrations, and may power down until event data is available for transmission or reception. When a registration server performs timer-based registrations on behalf of an access terminal, the registration server can periodically communicate with a network entity to conduct the timer-based registrations for the access terminal. The network entity can receive a timer-based registration message from a registrations server for registering an access terminal. In response to such a message, the network entity can register the access terminal. Sensors and controllers may be used with some embodiments to collect and analyze data and for potentially taking action. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for managing power consumption in a modem of a mobile device. A receive power associated with a receiver of the modem may be measured during a scheduled power-up of the modem associated with checking for paging messages. A power consumption metric associated with transmitting a pending wireless data transaction at a transmitter of the modem may then be estimated based on the measured receive power associated with the receiver. A determination of whether to transmit the pending wireless data transaction at a first time may then be made based at least in part on the estimated power consumption metric.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a multimode user equipment (UE) that when suffering a power crunch, can intelligently reselect to another RAT to extend the battery life of the UE. The reselected RAT has a lower specified maximum transmit power relative to the currently attached RAT. Therefore, the UE may reduce its battery drain to extend its service time per charge when a call is made utilizing the reselected RAT. The UE intelligently selects the RAT that will likely consume less uplink transmit power to communicate with a base station in order to conserve battery power in a poor coverage area, when the UE is experiencing a power crunch condition.

Abstract translation: 本公开的方面涉及多模式用户设备（UE），当遭受电力紧张时，可以智能地重新选择另一个RAT以延长UE的电池寿命。 重新选择的RAT相对于当前连接的RAT具有较低的指定的最大发射功率。 因此，当利用重新选择的RAT进行呼叫时，UE可以减少其电池消耗以延长其每次充电的服务时间。 当UE正在经历电力紧急状态时，UE智能地选择可能消耗较少上行链路发射功率以与基站进行通信的RAT，以便节省较差覆盖区域中的电池功率。

Abstract: Distributed antenna systems (DASs) can include a plurality of spatially separated remote antenna units. According to at least one example, a first group of remote antenna units can simulcast downlink transmissions on a first carrier with a particular sector identity (ID). A second group of remote antenna units, including at least one different remote antenna unit from the first group, can simulcast downlink transmissions on a second carrier with the same sector ID. According to at least one other example, two or more remote antenna units which include respective coverage areas that are non-adjacent to one another can be employed to simulcast downlink transmissions.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided to enable a ratcheting of uplink transmit power at an access terminal in a wireless communication network, such that the transmit power is maintained between an upper threshold and a lower threshold. Here, the decision whether to ratchet the power may be based on one or both of the open-loop transmit power and/or the closed-loop transmit power. Moreover, the decision whether to ratchet the transmit power may be based on the power per carrier in a multi-carrier wireless communication network. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
