Abstract:
Multiple memory pools are defined in hardware for operating on data. At least one memory pool has a lower latency that the other memory pools. Hardware components operate directly on data in the lower latency memory pool.
Abstract:
Techniques for controlling discontinuous transmissions in a wireless communication system are described. A method and apparatus for transmitting data on an uplink includes tracking past performance of at least one of an uplink channel condition and uplink system resources. A prediction of a likelihood of a completed or successful data transmission is performed. A long preamble is transmitted with an uplink control channel when the prediction indicates a likelihood of completion of the data transmission. When past performance indicates an unlikelihood of completing the transmission of the data, then the discontinuous mode is maintained without data transmission.
Abstract:
A method for handling a signaling message that specifies transmission rate restrictions may include operating in a first state. The method may also include receiving the signaling message from a network. The signaling message may include an activation time, the transmission rate restrictions and the control duration. The method may also include receiving a state transition trigger to operate in a second state. The method may also include determining the user equipment's behavior regarding the transmission rate restrictions upon receiving the state transition trigger.
Abstract:
A single receiver can collect multiple protocol data units at one time originating from different sources. While it can be desirable for higher priority protocol data units to be processed, loss of data unit portions can cause confusion to the receiver. Therefore, even if a higher priority protocol data unit transfers to the receiver while a lower priority data unit is being processed, the lower priority unit can be completed before processing the higher priority unit; thus, there can be a lower likelihood of confusion among protocol data units.

Abstract:
The described apparatus and methods may include a controller configured to receive data on a logical channel, determine that a first grant is not available during a first time transmission interval, determine whether to generate at least one of a buffer status report (BSR), a scheduling request (SR), and a random access channel (RACH) procedure based on an amount of the received data, determine that a second grant is available during a second time transmission interval, and transmit the received data during the second time transmission interval without generating the BSR, the SR, and the RACH procedure when the amount of the received data is less than or equal to the size of the grant.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate utilizing hybrid automatic repeat/request (HARQ) in system access communications. A HARQ entity is provided that manages a plurality of HARQ processes, which can typically use new data indicators (NDI) to determine when received data is a new transmission or retransmission. For resource grants, the HARQ entity can determine whether the communication is a new transmission or retransmission based on the type of message that contains the grant. In addition, an address comprised within the message, a previous use of the HARQ process, and/or the like can further be utilized to determine whether the message is a new transmission or retransmission. Once determined, the HARQ entity can provide the message to the appropriate HARQ process along with the indication of new transmission or retransmission.

Abstract:
An apparatus for wireless communication includes a processing system. The processing system is configured to perform a first set of functions in a first thread. The first set of functions includes obtaining second data from a second thread and providing first data to the second thread to facilitate construction of an uplink packet in the second thread. The processing system is further configured to perform a second set of functions in the second thread. The second set of functions includes obtaining the first data, constructing the uplink packet based on the first data, and providing the second data to the first thread to facilitate the performing of the first set of functions.
Abstract:
In accordance with a method for reducing the likelihood of deadlock in a wireless communication system, user equipment may determine that user equipment has data to transmit. The data may correspond to a scheduled flow. The user equipment may determine that a scheduled grant corresponding to the scheduled flow is insufficient to transmit at least one protocol data unit. An insufficiency indicator may be transmitted to a scheduler at least once. The insufficiency indicator may include an indication that the scheduled grant is insufficient to transmit at least one protocol data unit.
