20100135251 | FAST UPLINK DATA TRANSMISSION USING E-DCH ENHANCED RANDOM ACCESS WITHOUT A UE SPECIFIC E-RNTI - Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate communicating user plane data over common control resources by specifying a UTRAN radio network temporary identifier (U-RNTI). In this regard, a Node B or an RNC receiving the user plane data can associate the data to the UE based on the U-RNTI. The user plane data can be transmitted in a control message with the associated U-RNTI, such as a CELL UPDATE message or another message having a U-RNTI specified in a media access control (MAC)-i header or other header in the message. The control message can also include parameters regarding the existence and specifications of the user plane data. In this regard, a UE can communicate user plane data when in a (UTRAN) registration area paging channel (URA_PCH) or other relatively inactive state though it has not received an enhanced radio network temporary identifier (E_RNTI). | 06-03-2010 |

20100172395 | MULTI-CARRIER TRANSMITTER DESIGN ON ADJACENT CARRIERS IN A SINGLE FREQUENCY BAND ON THE UPLINK IN W-CDMA/HSPA - Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate synthesizing a single baseband waveform from digital signals related to multiple carriers. Digital signals can be received relating to a plurality of carriers. The digital signals can result from spreading data symbols from transport blocks to create chip sequences, which can additionally be pulse shaped. The digital signals can be rotated in a positive or negative direction, such as according to a complex sinusoid or a negative representation thereof. The rotated signals can be combined or added to generate a single baseband waveform. The single baseband waveform can be converted to an analog signal, which can be up-converted and centered at a plurality of frequency carriers, which can be adjacent, assigned for transmitting the signal. In addition, optimizations can be provided to ensure threshold power ratio over the plurality of carriers for effectively transmitting jointly encoded signals. | 07-08-2010 |
20100202348 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PACKET ACKNOWLEDGMENT - Systems and methods for packet acknowledgement are disclosed.

20100202392 | POWER ALLOCATION IN MULTI-CARRIER ENHANCED UPLINK - Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate split a common total power resource among a plurality of carriers. A power distribution scheme can be employed jointly across the plurality of carriers to determine an amount of power to allocate to respective carriers. Based upon an amount of power allocated, a packet format can be selected for each carrier based upon the amount of power allocated to the carrier and/or a serving grant associated with the carrier. | 08-12-2010 |

20100260121 | Discontinuous Uplink Transmission Operation and Interference Avoidance For a Multi-Carrier System - Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products are described for discontinuous multi-carrier uplink management in a wireless communication system. Common timing parameters may be identified for use in relation to discontinuous uplink transmissions on each of a two or more wireless carriers concurrently transmitting from an access terminal. A first operational state is associated with a first wireless carrier, while a second, different state is associated with a second wireless carrier. The first carrier may be operated in the first operational state concurrently with the second carrier being operated in the second operational state, with each carrier operated in accordance with the common timing parameters. | 10-14-2010 |
20100267346 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL SIGNALING IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Methods and apparatus for control signaling in a communication system using continuous valued measurement and feedback are disclosed. The control signaling utilizes delta-sigma modulation where a measured phase or amplitude of a received signal is used to determine a difference signal by subtracting a previously quantized integrated difference signal from the current measurement signal, and then integrating the difference signal. The integrated difference signal is quantized and transmitted to the device originating the received signal as feedback control signaling. The device originating the received signal may then filter the control signaling to obtain the desired control information used to adjust or control the transmission of the signal transmitted by the device. By utilizing delta-sigma modulation, a greater degree of control signaling precision is achieved when controlling variables such as phase or amplitude of the transmitted signals, thereby achieving improved communication system performance. | 10-21-2010 |
