Abstract:
An apparatus and method of wireless communication includes determining, at a compressor component, whether to transmit a current data packet as a compressed current data packet or an uncompressed current data packet. Further, these aspects include determining whether a data sequence in the current data packet matches a first or second data sequence when determining to transmit the uncompressed current data packet, wherein the first data sequence indicates a first compression state and the second data sequence indicates a second compression state. Also, these aspects include adding the second data sequence to the uncompressed current data packet for transmission when the data sequence in the current data packet matches the first or second data sequence. Additionally, these aspects include transmitting the uncompressed current data packet with the second data sequence when the data sequence in the current data packet matches the first or second data sequence.
Abstract:
Interactions between radio access network (RAN)-based and legacy wireless local area network (WLAN) mobility is described in which a multi-mode mobile device receives a management indication from a wide area wireless network (WWAN) to manage connectivity with the WLAN, such as in discovery, association, or specific traffic offload for the WLAN. The mobile device obtains a status of its internal WLAN radio and determines whether to process the management indication based on the status. Data offloading is also described in which the mobile device receives an indication from the WWAN to offload data to the WLAN associated with the mobile device. In response, the mobile device suspends application of a current offload policy, which had been received from the core network, based on the indication and transmits its data according to the indication.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates in some aspects to location reporting and paging for satellite communication. In one aspect, the disclosure relates to a user terminal (UT) sending a message to report information about the UT's location. A threshold may be used to control whether (e.g., when) the UT reports its location. The location information may be used to enforce area (e.g., country) restrictions for the UT. In one aspect, the disclosure relates to forwarding paging messages between network access controllers. For example, a network access controller that is not able to page a UT may forward a paging message to another network access controller. In one aspect, the disclosure relates to a list of paging areas that indicates where a UT need not perform a paging area update.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. A user equipment (UE), for example, may determine a content size of an uncompressed buffer and a content size of a compressed buffer. The UE may then generate a buffer status report (BSR) based on the content sizes of the uncompressed buffer and the compressed buffer. Alternatively, a base station may receive a BSR based on a size of an uncompressed buffer of the UE. The base station may then receive a compressed packet from the UE and may determine a compression gain based on a size of the compressed packet and a size of a corresponding uncompressed packet. The base station may then adjust the received BSR based on the compression gain.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication at a UE. In aspects, a receiver may receive a transmission requesting information about support for data compression. The receiver may determine parameters related to the types of supported data compression and communicate the information to the transmitting device. In some cases, the receiver may then receive a message from the transmitting entity that requests establishment of a data compression configuration. The receiver may respond with confirmation or rejection of the proposed compression configuration. If the configuration is confirmed, the transmitter and receiver may exchange compressed data packets according to the configuration. The devices may exchange status and control information related to the compression configuration (e.g., in a compression header of a compressed message or a separate status and/or control information message).
Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure provide an apparatus and methods for dynamic user equipment capability reporting. A user equipment (UE) is configured to communicate with a network utilizing a plurality of communication protocols including a first communication protocol and a second communication protocol. The UE communicates with the network utilizing the first communication protocol with a maximum achievable throughput less than that of the second communication protocol, and the UE dynamically reports a capability of the UE to transfer data utilizing the second communication protocol in consideration of a power efficiency of transferring an amount of data utilizing the first communication protocol or the second communication protocol.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for modem control based on feedback are disclosed. In one embodiment, a modem observer module is associated with software within a computing device. The modem observer receives information from the modem relating to uplink bandwidth availability and/or network conditions that may impact uplink bandwidth. Based on the uplink bandwidth availability at the modem, the modem observer may throttle or limit the number of connections that are active by the applications.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a user equipment, an RNC, or an application operable in a wireless communications network and methods in which an apparatus for wireless communication is configured to transfer data for a user equipment via a first user plane connection in a first radio access network. If the data transferred via the first user plane connection satisfies a trigger condition, the apparatus is configured to initiate a handover procedure of transferring the user equipment to a second user plane connection in a second radio access network.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for wireless communication include receiving, at a compressor component, a data packet flow and determining information associated with the data packet flow from one or more data packets associated with the data packet flow. The determined information includes source or destination information corresponding to the one or more data packets of the data packet flow. Further, the methods and apparatus include classifying the data packet flow as a compressible or an uncompressed data packet flow based on the determined information, and compressing or skipping compressing of the one or more data packets associated with the data packet flow based on the classification of the data packet flow. Additionally, the methods and apparatus include transmitting the one or more compressed or uncompressed data packets depending on the classification of the data packet flow.
