Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. that support preconfigured uplink resources (PUR) in wireless communications. A base station may communicate that support for PUR is available, and may allocate PUR resources to a user equipment (UE) based on requests from the UE. The UE may receive an indication that the base station supports PUR, such as via a system information block (SIB), determine to request PUR, and transmit a PUR request message to the base station. A PUR response from the base station may indicate configuration, or reconfiguration of PUR allocation for the UE that may be used for uplink transmissions, or release of the PUR allocation.
Abstract:
One feature pertains to a method that includes establishing a radio communication connection with a first radio access node (RAN) that uses control plane signaling connections to carry user plane data. The method also includes determining that the wireless communication device is experiencing radio link failure (RLF) with the first RAN and that the radio communication connection should be reestablished with a second RAN. A reestablishment request message is transmitted to the second RAN that includes parameters that enable a core network node communicatively coupled to the second RAN to authenticate the wireless communication device and allow or reject reestablishment of the radio communication connection. The parameters include at least a message authentication code (MAC) based in part on one or more bits of a non-access stratum (NAS) COUNT value maintained at the wireless communication device.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may determine that a channel, such as a downlink channel or an uplink channel, and a positioning reference signal (PRS) occasion are scheduled for a common set of resources, such as a common frequency, a common time, and/or the like. This may result in the UE being unable to receive the PRS and/or process the PRS as a result of receiving the channel. In some aspects, the UE may determine that a PRS collides with a channel, and may perform a collision response action, such as dropping at least a portion of the channel, based at least in part on determining that the PRS occasion collides with the channel.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a paging message that includes a secured UE identifier calculated based on a security configuration negotiated between the UE and a trusted source, e.g., a mobility management entity (MME) of the core network. The UE may determine whether the paging message is received from the trusted source or an untrusted source based on the secured UE identifier. The UE may transmit a connection request message based on the determination that the paging message is received from a trusted source.

Abstract:
A method includes: receiving a first speech frame; identifying a first codec mode based at least in part on a Codec Mode Command (CMC) comprising the first speech frame; identifying a second codec mode based at least in part on a downlink (DL) Codec Mode Indication (DCMI) comprising the first speech frame; determining, based at least in part on a current uplink (UL) codec mode, to apply one of the first codec mode, the second codec mode, and a third codec mode having a higher bit rate than the first codec mode; and applying one of the first codec mode, the second codec mode, and the third codec mode. Apply the first codec mode when the RxLev and RXQual are determined not to exceed a predetermined threshold, and applying second or third codec modes otherwise.
Abstract:
The present patent application improves DARP by allowing multiple users on one time slot (MUROS). It comprises means and instructions for signaling training sequence set information to a remote station, comprising receiving signaling from a remote station indicating if a new set of training sequences is supported, and using a channel description to signal the training sequence set to be used by the remote station for a communication channel being established.
Abstract:
Devices and methods are configured for resolving control channel transmission collision in a mobile device having first and second subscriptions (SUBs) when the first SUB is in an active voice call and the second SUB is in a held voice call. The devices and methods involve determining whether a control channel transmission of the first SUB would collide with a control channel transmission of the second SUB. In response to determining that the first SUB control channel transmission would collide with the second SUB control channel transmission, the devices and methods alternate the first SUB control channel transmission and the second SUB control channel transmission to avoid collision.

Abstract:
A method includes: determining a first protocol data unit (PDU) priority for a first PDU and a second PDU priority for a second PDU; tagging the first PDU with the first PDU priority and the second PDU with the second PDU priority; determining to transmit one of the first PDU and the second PDU based at least in part on the first PDU priority and the second PDU priority; and transmitting a one of the first PDU and the second PDU having a higher PDU priority.
