Abstract:
The disclosure describes procedures for allocating network resources for a mobile device communicating within a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. The mobile device can be configured to decode a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), acquire first and second physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) decode indicators from a payload of the same PDSCH communication, decode a PDCCH for downlink control information (DCI) associated with a first application data type based on the first PDCCH decode indicator a second application data type based on the second PDCCH decode indicator. The first PDCCH decode indicator can identify an upcoming LTE subframe where the mobile device is required to decode the PDCCH for DCI associated VoLTE resource assignments and the second PDCCH decode indicator can identify an upcoming LTE subframe where the mobile device is required to decode the PDCCH for DCI associated with high bandwidth best effort (BE) data resource assignments.
Abstract:
A method of modulating transmission power to facilitate in-device coexistence between wireless communication technologies is provided. The method can include determining a scheduled time period during which data is received by a device via a first wireless communication technology. The method can further include reducing a transmission power of a transmission from the device via a second wireless communication technology to a threshold level prior to the scheduled time period and controlling the transmission power so that the transmission power does not exceed the threshold level during the scheduled time period. The method can additionally include, subsequent to the time period, increasing the transmission power to a level exceeding the threshold level.

Disclosed embodiments include wearable devices and techniques for detecting the end of hiking activities. By accurately and promptly detecting the end of hiking activities automatically, the disclosure enables wearable devices to accurately calculate user performance information when users forget to start and/or stop recording a hiking activity.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices with pressure sensors. Pressure sensor occlusion may be detected based on a comparison of a variance of pressure data from the pressure sensor with a variance of acceleration data from an accelerometer of the device. If a ratio of the pressure data variance to the acceleration data variance is above a threshold, occlusion may be identified. Data from other sensors in the device or in an external device, or other features of the pressure data, may be used to identify a type of occlusion.

Disclosed embodiments include wearable devices and techniques for detecting walking workouts. By accurately and promptly detecting the start of walking workouts activities and automatically distinguishing between walking workout and causal walking activities, the disclosure enables wearable devices to accurately calculate user performance information when users forget to start and/or stop recording walking workouts.
Abstract:
Systems and methods of analyzing a user's motion during a swimming session are described. One or more motions sensors can collect motion data of the user. A processor circuit can make motion analysis based on the motion data. The processor circuit can determine if the user's arm swing is a genuine swim stroke. The processor circuit can also determine whether the user is swimming or turning. The processor circuit can also classify the user's swim stroke style. The processor circuit can also determine the user's swim stroke phase. The processor circuit can also determine the user's stroke orbit consistency.
