20140153464 | DELIVERING DATA TO A WIRELESS STATION - Disclosed are methods for delivering data ( | 06-05-2014 |
20150118968 | MEASUREMENT MANAGEMENT IN SMALL-CELL SYSTEMS - A system and method for neighbor-cell measurement reporting in a cellular environment supporting multistate cells limits measurement reporting by requiring that state-specific trigger conditions are met. Thus for example, a dormant cell may need to meet more stringent measurement conditions before a report is generated by the user device, since a current primary cell may prefer to hand off to an active cell. In particular, state-specific thresholds, offsets, and hysteresis values may be used to enforce a preference for active cells, for example. | 04-30-2015 |
20150131502 | REDUCING POWER CONSUMPTION BY A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE WITH MULTIPLE WIRELESS COMMUNICATION MODEMS - A method that reduces power consumption in a wireless communication device having a first and a second modem. The method includes detecting access to a communication network via the second modem, and in response to that detection: establishing a communication channel between the second modem and a communication service over a communication network; and triggering the first modem to enter a sleep state. The communication service is configured to respond to receipt at the communication service of an incoming communication to be routed to the first modem via a first communication network by: (i) automatically transmitting a notification via the communication channel to the second modem and (ii) forwarding the incoming communication via the first communication network to the first modem. The method then includes, in response to receipt of the notification at the device: awakening the first modem to an active state to enable receipt of the incoming communication. | 05-14-2015 |
20150156717 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR WIRELESS MOBILE DEVICE POWER SAVINGS - A method and apparatus provide power savings in a wireless mobile device. The wireless mobile device is capable of communicating within a first wireless communication system using a first wireless modem and communicating within a second wireless communication system using a second wireless modem. The wireless mobile device associates with the second wireless communication system, determines that the second wireless communication system includes a paging offload function, establishes a link to the paging offload function, provides a set of parameters over the link that the paging offload function can use to monitor signals of the first wireless communication system on behalf of the wireless mobile device; and changes a mode of the first modem of the wireless mobile device into a power saving mode. | 06-04-2015 |
20150163743 | REDUCING POWER CONSUMPTION BY A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE WITH MULTIPLE WIRELESS COMMUNICATION MODEMS - A method includes: a wireless communication device (WCD) receiving information indicating that a second user device that is close-by is actively running a messaging application, which establishes an active communication channel with a communication service that is responsible for routing incoming voice and data communication to the WCD. The method also includes: establishing a short range communication between the communication device and the second user device; in response to receiving the information and establishing the short range communication, placing at least a first modem of the WCD in a sleep state; and in response to at least one subsequent trigger event, awakening the first modem to an active state to enable use of the first modem to complete communication. The messaging service is configured to redirect incoming calls to the second user device while the messaging service is active and the devices are within short-range communication of each other. | 06-11-2015 |

20160037395 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CHANGE OF PRIMARY CELL DURING CARRIER AGGREGATION - Methods for performing change of primary cell during carrier aggregation operation are described. A mobile station (MS) receives a message to change a primary cell and to perform a random access communication with a new primary cell. Upon receiving a random access response message from the new primary cell, the MS starts transmitting a control channel to the new primary cell. In one embodiment, the MS releases the configuration of an uplink control channel and transmits uplink control information through an uplink shared channel. Upon completion of the primary cell change procedure, the MS starts transmission of an uplink control channel to the new primary cell. | 02-04-2016 |
20160050593 | HARQ ADAPTATION FOR ACQUISITION OF NEIGHBOR CELL SYSTEM INFORMATION - A method in a mobile station including receiving an order from a serving cell for system information acquisition of a neighbor cell, wherein the order includes at least a physical cell identifier and a time limit for acquisition of the system information of the neighbor cell, acquiring the system information of the neighbor cell within the time limit for the acquisition of the system information, and reporting at least a part of the acquired system information to the serving cell. | 02-18-2016 |
