Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to apparatuses and methods capable of selective acknowledgement of packets from an access probe. In one aspect, an apparatus includes: a transceiver configured to receive a set of frames associated with an access probe message from a wireless node, wherein the access probe message includes a plurality of frames, and the set of frames comprises a subset of the plurality of frames; and a processing system configured to generate a selective acknowledgement message based on a determination of whether each frame in the set of frames is received correctly. The acknowledgement includes an indication of receipt for at least one frame in the set of frames. The transceiver can transmit the selective acknowledgement message with an identifier assigned to the wireless node to allow tracking of a response. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for creating tags (static or dynamic) for input/output classes of a neural network model using supervised learning. The method includes augmenting a neural network model with a plurality of neurons and training the augmented network using spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) to determine one or more tags.
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:
Apparatus and methods are described herein for monitoring multiple paging channels at a mobile station. A mobile station may monitor a primary paging channel and an optimized secondary paging channel to receive signals from a base station. The mobile station may process overhead data messages received in signals over the primary paging channel. The mobile station may process any mobile-station specific messages received in signals over the optimized secondary paging channel. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
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:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive data from both a source base station and a target base station during handover. For example, the UE may refrain from resetting or reestablishing media access control (MAC) and packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer configurations until after a successful access procedure is performed with the target base station. In some cases, a single radio link control (RLC)/PDCP stack may be used during handover procedures. A source base station may, for example, forward data to a target base station after receiving a handover execution message. A UE may identify and resolve any duplicate data sent by both base stations during the transition. Additional signaling may be used (e.g., during the radio resource control (RRC) configuration) to indicate that a UE supports dual link handover.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates in some aspects to forbidden area procedures and connection release management for a user terminal (UT). Forbidden area-related procedures include, for example, using a special paging area code (PAC) in conjunction with a forbidden area, defining a location reporting threshold for a UT based on the proximity of the UT to a forbidden area, or using a default paging area code if a service restriction for a UT has ended. Connection release management includes, for example, a UT sending a request to cause the release of a Radio Connection that the UT no longer needs, or a UT sending a Location Indication (e.g., including a flag requesting release of a connection) to release the connection used for location reporting when a UT is done sending the location information and is going to go back to idle mode.
Abstract:
Certain aspects relate to methods and apparatus for wireless communications, comprising determining to use a reduced paging cycle to page a user equipment (UE) of a first type that supports the reduced paging cycle, the reduced paging cycle having a shorter period relative to a paging cycle used with UEs of a second type which do not support the reduced paging cycle, and paging the UE of the first type in accordance with the reduced paging cycle. Certain aspects relate to methods and apparatus for conveying system information by a base station, comprising broadcasting a first system information common to each cell of a group of cells in an area and broadcasting a second system information that can vary between cells in the group of cells, wherein the second system information is broadcast more frequently than the first system information.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for decreasing user plane latency in a wireless communication system. This may include routing a portion of bearer traffic to or from a UE through a local or serving gateway, or within or between base stations, rather than via the core network. In some examples, techniques for selected internet protocol flow ultra-low latency (SIPFULL) for systems in which users may have subscribed to enhanced services may be employed. The network may, for instance, authorize SIPFULL functionalities for UEs per access point name (APN) based on individual services subscribed by the UE to improve overall quality of service (QoS). In some examples, a UEs latency requirements or SIPFULL authorizations may affect mobility operations.
Abstract:
Access terminals are adapted to facilitate reception of overhead messages. According to one example, an access terminal can determine whether it is at least substantially stationary. The access terminal may receive one or more sequence numbers corresponding to a subsequent overhead message. In response to being at least substantially stationary, the access terminal can ignore the subsequent overhead message when the corresponding sequence numbers are the same as stored sequence numbers corresponding to a previously obtained overhead message, even when the previously obtained overhead message is more than six hundred seconds old. According to another example, a network node may transmit an overhead message including a corresponding sector indicator and sequence numbers. When the sector indicator and the sequence numbers are the same as a previously received and stored sector indicator and sequence numbers, the access terminal can ignore the overhead message. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also included.
