Abstract:
The present disclosure presents a method and apparatus for improved reselection during mode transitions at a user equipment (UE). For example, the disclosure presents a method for identifying that a user equipment (UE) has started switching from a first priority scheduling mode to a second priority scheduling mode while making measurements for reselection. In addition, such an example method, may include initiating a mode transition timer in response to the identification and triggering a search for one or more frequencies of the second priority scheduling mode upon expiration of the mode transition timer. As such, an improved reselection during mode transitions at UE may be achieved.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for decoding system information include determining a maximum repetition rate duration based at least in part on a master information block (MIB). The methods and apparatus further include generating a distributed system information block (SIB) decoding scheme for allocating radio frequency resources between a first subscriber identity module (SIM) and a second SIM. In some aspects, the distributed SIB decoding scheme includes a partitioned SIB decoding schedule for the maximum repetition rate duration and based at least in part on a continuous SIB decoding period. Additionally, the methods and apparatus include attempting to decode one or more SIBs during the maximum repetition rate duration according to the distributed SIB decoding scheme.
Abstract:
Techniques for performing cell reselection to obtain good performance are disclosed. In an aspect of the present disclosure, a user equipment (UE) performs cell reselection to a cell by applying one or more performance-based suitability criteria defined to provide good performance. In one design, the UE obtains a measured value for a cell (e.g., a femto cell) and also determines a threshold value for the cell. The threshold value is not broadcast by a wireless system. The UE determines the threshold value based on a target performance for a physical channel (e.g., a page indicator channel) from the cell. The UE determines a suitability criterion for the cell based on the measured value and the threshold value for the cell. The UE determines whether the cell is a suitable cell and also determines whether to perform cell reselection to the cell based at least on the suitability criterion.
