Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives an MBMS service from a first cell in a first MBSFN area while in an RRC idle mode. The apparatus reselects to a second cell through an intra-frequency cell reselection upon moving into coverage of the second cell. The second cell is a non-MBSFN cell or an MBSFN cell in a second MBSFN area different than the first MBSFN area. The apparatus continues to receive the MBMS service directly from the first cell while receiving paging signals from the second cell.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided where, at a first wireless node, a weighted average of a frame loss rate is determined for a plurality of frames transmitted from a second wireless node using a first codec; feedback is transmitted to the second wireless node based at least in part on the frame loss rate; and one or more frames are received from the second wireless node using a second codec, responsive to transmitting the feedback. Also, transmitting from a first wireless node a plurality of frames to a second wireless node using a first codec; receiving frame loss rate information from the second wireless node responsive to the transmitting; selecting a second codec, based at least in part on the frame loss rate information, and transmitting a second plurality of frames to the second wireless node using the second codec.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that effectuate establishment of an IPSec tunnel for utilization in a wireless communication environment. IPSec establishment procedures on home base stations can be used to establish IPSec tunnels between home base stations situated on open access sectors of wireless communication environments and packet data interworking function components positioned at the contiguity of secured segments of the wireless communication environments. Moreover, high rate packet data point-to-point protocol challenge-handshake authentication protocols can be directed through the IPSec tunnels to facilitate authentication of access terminals associated with the home base stations in order to facilitate further communications with components dispersed within secure areas of wireless communication environments. Further, international mobile subscriber identities (IMSI) affiliated with access terminals associated with home base stations can be used to identify packet data serving nodes with which to establish communications between home base stations and packet data serving nodes.
Abstract:
A UE apparatus determines UE capability and signals UE capability information to a base station. The UE may signal RF capability information to the base station with reference to at least one band combination and signal other baseband parameter(s) (obp(s)) to the base station. The RF capability information indicate RF capability with reference to at least one other band combination parameter. The obp may be indicated on a per UE basis, a per band basis, a per band combination basis, a per band, per band combination basis; and/or a per CC, per band, per band combination basis. Each band combination may indicate a combination of a numerology, a layer and a bandwidth. In another example, a plurality of basebands may be defined, each baseband indicating a combination of a numerology, a layer and a bandwidth.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for optimizing real time services (e.g., such as a voice over Long Term Evolution (LTE) (VoLTE)) for devices with limited communications resources, such as machine type communication (MTC) devices and enhanced MTC (eMTC) devices. In one aspect, a UE determines a first configuration of subframes within at least one radio frame available for the UE and other UEs to use for bundled communications with a BS. The UE receives an indication of one or more subframes within the at least one radio frame that are unavailable for bundled uplink transmissions, and determines a second configuration of subframes to use for bundled communications based on the indication. The UE overrides the first configuration of subframes with the second configuration of subframes, and communicates with the BS using the second configuration of subframes. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may camp on a cell of a first radio access technology (RAT). The UE may perform a cell search for a second RAT while camped on the cell of the first RAT, wherein the second RAT operates in a non-standalone mode with the first RAT. The UE may present, for display, an indication of whether the second RAT is available in the cell based at least in part on performing the cell search for the second RAT. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides user equipment power consumption and secondary cell (SCell) activation latency reductions in wireless communication systems. For example, a UE may determine that a secondary cell activation condition has been satisfied. The UE may further transition to a secondary cell activated state based on determining that the secondary cell activation condition has been satisfied, the secondary cell activate state corresponding to a dormant SCell state. The UE may operate at least in the dormant SCell state.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless communication device may determine that a video frame was not properly received by the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may determine whether a reference frame is stored in a buffer of the wireless communication device based at least in part on determining that the video frame was not properly received. The wireless communication device may selectively transmit a negative acknowledgement (NACK) indication based at least in part on determining whether the reference frame is stored in the buffer. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for allowing multiple P-RNTIs to be supported using communications systems operating according to new radio (NR) technologies. For example, a method for wireless communication by a base station (BS) generally includes receiving, from a core network, a paging message for a user equipment (UE) comprising a paging identifier and a paging offset; determining a plurality of available paging identifiers for the UE associated with the paging offset; selecting, from the plurality of available paging identifiers, at least a first paging identifier to associate with a first UE based on the paging identifier; and paging the first UE using the first paging identifier.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure describe transmitting data in wireless communications. A set of packets for transmission in a defined sequence can be received where the set of packets includes two or more packets. It can be detected that a packet, of the set of packets, is a prioritized packet type. The packet can be prioritized for transmission ahead of its order in the defined sequence based on the detection of the prioritized packet type. The packet can be transmitted ahead of its order in the defined sequence to an access point.
