Abstract:
In a method of allocating wireless medium resources in a communication system, the communication system including a base station and a plurality of client stations sharing a channel bandwidth, a frequency sub-band of the channel bandwidth is selected for allocating wireless medium resources to a client station. Wireless medium resources are allocated at the base station to the client station. The base station is constrained to allocate wireless medium resources to the client station within the selected frequency sub-band. A subframe is generated for transmission to the client station. The subframe includes at least a data region that contains data for the client station. The data for the client station is confined to be within the selected frequency sub-band.
Abstract:
In a wireless network including a first cell and a second cell, it is determined whether a measure of mobility of a user device meets a mobility criterion, and it is determined whether a size of the second cell meets a cell size criterion. When it is determined that (i) the measure of mobility of the user device meets the mobility criterion and (ii) the size of the second cell meets the cell size criterion, the user device is prevented from being switched from the first cell to the second cell, or at least one of (i) a handover parameter or (ii) a cell reselection parameter is adjusted in order to change a probability that the user device will switch from the first cell to the second cell.

Abstract:
A method includes receiving, at a communication terminal, signals from a group of cells that cooperate in a Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) transmission scheme. Signaling that specifies a CoMP resource management (CRM) set is received at the communication terminal. The CRM set includes a subset of the cells in the group for which the communication terminal is to perform signal measurements. A size of the CRM set is restricted to a predefined maximum size. The signal measurements are performed at the communication terminal only on the signals received from one or more of the cells in the CRM set. The signal measurements performed on the one or more of the cells in the CRM set are reported from the communication terminal.
Abstract:
The present disclosure describes systems and techniques relating to wireless communications. According to an aspect of the described systems and techniques, an apparatus includes circuitry configured to receive a signal representing a wireless communication transmission; and circuitry configured to process the signal to (i) decode a control portion of the wireless communication transmission, (ii) determine from the decoded control portion that a data portion of the wireless communication transmission was successfully decoded previously and acknowledged, and so the wireless communication transmission is an unnecessary retransmission, and (iii) trigger acknowledgement of the wireless communication transmission being successfully decoded, without completing a decode of the data portion of the wireless communication transmission, when the unnecessary retransmission is detected.

Abstract:
Systems, methods, apparatus, and techniques are provided for retransmitting packets of data. A Radio Link Control (RLC) layer data packet is generated, and the RLC layer data packet is converted to one or more physical (PHY) layer data packets. The one or more PHY layer data packets are transmitted. At least one of a hybrid automatic transmission request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK) message and a HARQ negative acknowledgment (NACK) message is received from a receiver in response to transmission of the one or more PHY layer data packets. It is determined whether the at least one of the HARQ ACK message and the HARQ NACK message represents a automatic transmission request (ARQ) ACK message or a ARQ NACK message.
