摘要:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for implementing timing advances in which a propagation delay may exceed a time period of a portion of a radio frame. In some examples, a transmitter may identify a timing advance indicating a time to initiate wireless uplink transmission of a subframe. Such a timing advance may compensate for a propagation delay between the transmitter and a receiver of the wireless uplink transmission. The timing advance may be applied as an integer component and a fractional component in relation to a duration of the subframe, to adjust the time to initiate the wireless uplink transmission of the subframe. The integer component may be used to adjust one or more subframe characteristics, and the fractional component that may be used to adjust the time to initiate the wireless uplink transmission of the subframe.

A method and apparatus for operating a satellite system including different satellites that may belong to different types of satellite constellations. In some implementations, the satellite system may include a LEO satellite constellation and one or more non-LEO satellite constellations that can be used to increase the forward link capacity of the LEO satellite constellation, for example, by allowing an LEO satellite to offload at least some of its forward link traffic to one of the non-LEO satellites. The user terminals can dynamically switch forward link communications between a LEO satellite and a non-LEO satellite while maintaining a return link connection with the LEO satellite.

Various aspects of the disclosure relate to allocating control signaling resources for multiple carrier scenarios. In an example implementation, N-to-1 mapping is used between forward link control signaling resource allocation indices (e.g., control channel elements) and return link control signaling resources (e.g., for ACK/NACK signaling) indices in each return link component carrier. A collision between forward link control signaling assignments for different user terminals (UTs) may occur when UT-specific search spaces overlap each other. Such a collision may be avoided, for example, by scheduling different UTs on different return link component carriers, scheduling return link grants instead of forward link grants, or scheduling a different forward link control signaling candidate that is associated with a different forward link control signaling resource allocation index.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for transmitting across a broad azimuth using an antenna array. In one example, a method is described that includes forming two subarrays from an antenna array. Beamforming weights are selected for each subarray to cause the radiation patterns to be complementary over a range of the azimuth of a cell. The beamforming weights may be selected according to a recursive relation based on the number of antenna elements in each subarray. Information may be encoded, scrambled, and mapped to modulation symbols. A Space Frequency Block Code (SFBC) such as an Alamouti Code may then be used to form two signals to be transmitted over the two subarrays.

摘要:
Managing handover procedures of two or more modems from a serving base station to a target base station includes receiving at least one message indicative of at least one measurement report of radio conditions from at least one modem of the two or more modems; determining, based on the at least one message, whether to handover the two or more modems from the serving base station to the target base station; and upon determining to handover the two or more modems from the serving base station to the target base station, indicating to each of the two or more modems to send to the serving base station a measurement report configured to trigger a respective handover procedure from the serving base station to the target base station.
摘要:
A method of wireless communication includes communicating with a base station using a special subframe that extends a guard period over an uplink pilot time slot and one or more disabled, adjacent uplink subframes. The method also includes associating a control information subframe with a specific downlink subframe while accounting for both cell radius extension and loss of the one or more disabled, adjacent uplink subframes used to communicate the extended special subframe.
