Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a user equipment (UE) that can maintain active connections on multiple wireless communication networks. The UE shares a transmission resource when transmitting (TX) on a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT in a time-division manual. During TX sharing, the UE provide uplink recovery and protection to one of the RATs.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, methods, and computer program products for decoding of transport format combination indicator (TFCI) in a universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS). In one aspect, a method includes receiving by a UE coded TFCI bit sequence on a physical channel, determining a range of TFCI bits that contain information, performing early decoding of the received TFCI bit sequence; and limiting the search set of decoded TFCI bits to the determined range of TFCI bits. The range of TFCI bits that contain information may be determined from a code book.
Abstract:
The present disclosure presents a method and apparatus for expedited mobile device handover that include performing one or more handover tasks in parallel that have previously been performed exclusively in serial. For example, the disclosure presents a method for wireless device handover, which may include acquiring a target cell, ascertaining a system frame number (SFN) of the target cell, calculating a connection frame number (CFN) for a dedicated channel (DCH) transmission, and reconfiguring a dedicated physical channel (DPCH) based on the calculated CFN. In addition, such an example method may include, while performing at least one of the ascertaining of the SFN, the calculating of the CFN, and the reconfiguring of the DPCH, contemporaneously performing at least one of establishing a downlink dedicated physical channel (DL-DPCH), establishing a synchronization with the target cell, and establishing an uplink dedicated physical channel (UL-DPCH) subsequent to the downlink synchronization.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are described for selecting or identifying a first band number from one or more additional band numbers mapped to a frequency division duplexing (FDD) band used in universal mobile telecommunications (UMTS). The one or more additional band numbers may be different from a second band number assigned to the FDD band. Each of the one or more additional band numbers may correspond to a different factor N (e.g., N=2, N=4) for use in UMTS scaling. A signal indicative of the first band number may be transmitted to, for example, a network entity, where the signal indicates support of UMTS scaling operations in the FDD band using the factor N corresponding to the first band number.
