20080294425 | Method and apparatus for performing semantic update and replace operations - A method of changing semantic information comprises changing a first bi-directional coupling between a surface region in a document and a first semantic object to a second bi-directional coupling between the surface region and a second semantic object. More particularly, the method may be comprised of identifying an occurrence of a surface region in a document, the surface region having a first link for coupling the surface region to a first semantic object, and the first semantic object having a first association for coupling the first semantic object with the surface region. The first link is replaced with a second link for coupling the surface region to a second semantic object. The first association is changed to a second association for coupling the second semantic object with the surface region. Another method for changing semantic information comprising selecting a semantic object stored in a data repository and changing the selected semantic object. A scope is then selected, either manually or automatically. A set of semantically anchored expressions associated with the semantic object is identified in response to the scope. A determination is made if the semantically anchored expressions are consistent with the changed semantic object and, if not, the semantically anchored expressions are updated so as to be consistent with the changed semantic object. | 11-27-2008 |
20080294426 | Method and apparatus for anchoring expressions based on an ontological model of semantic information - A method and apparatus for the recording and maintenance of semantic elements in electronically-held information objects provide for grounding semantic objects in an ontology, such that inheritance and other relations between concepts are preserved in persistent storage. The disclosed method and apparatus provide semantic document authors with a means to anchor concept references to specific, persistent, semantic objects, thereby providing the system with access to all properties of the underlying data model of the semantic objects being referenced, while also specifying the type and scope of their relations, as well as behavioral aspects of the visual and editing environment. | 11-27-2008 |
20080294427 | Method and apparatus for performing a semantically informed merge operation - A method and apparatus for performing an informed semantic merge operation comprises selecting a source region in a document and a target region in the same or a different document. A bi-directionally coupled surface region is identified in the source region and a bi-directionally coupled surface region is identified in the target region. A first semantic object coupled to the surface region in the source region is identified and a second semantic object coupled to the surface region in the target region is identified. The subcomponents of the first semantic object are combined with the subcomponents of the second semantic object by merging. | 11-27-2008 |
20080295013 | Method and apparatus for performing semantically informed text operations - One example of a semantically informed text operation comprises selecting a source region of a document and determining if the source region has a surface region bi-directionally coupled to a semantic object. The coupled semantic object is identified as are the presentation(s) associated with the semantic object. A target region of the same or anther document is selected. Any of the presentations that cannot be expressed in the target region are eliminated to identify a set of remaining presentations. A set of semantic choices based on the remaining presentations is determined. One of the semantic choices is selected and executed in the target region. | 11-27-2008 |

20110242970 | METHODS AND APPARATUS TO FACILITATE RELAY STARTUP AND RADIO LINK FAILURE (RLF) HANDLING - Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for startup and recovery of a radio link between a relay node and a donor base station. According to certain aspects, a relay node may perform a random access procedure utilizing a random access channel (RACH) to transition between Uu interface operations and Un interface operations. According to certain aspects, the relay node may perform radio link failure (RLF) recovery utilizing RACH procedures for a Un interface. The procedures described herein, according to certain aspects, may utilize a dedicated relay RACH resource and a Relay Physical Downlink Control Channel (R-PDCCH). | 10-06-2011 |
20120329476 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR WIRELESS DEVICE POSITIONING IN MULTICARRIER CONFIGURATIONS - The described aspects include methods and apparatus for performing positioning for a user equipment (UE). The UE can communicate with a plurality of serving cells in a multicarrier configuration, and can indicate a plurality of serving cell identifiers corresponding to the plurality of serving cells in a message to a positioning server. The positioning server can obtain location information corresponding to at least a portion of a plurality of cells, or related eNBs, related to the plurality of serving cell identifiers, and can communicate the location information to the UE. The UE can perform positioning based at least in part on the location information. | 12-27-2012 |

20100322177 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION HAVING REDUCED FEEDBACK DELAY - Providing for improved error control signaling in wireless communications is disclosed herein. By way of example, multiple transmissions can be conducted for a HARQ process prior to a scheduled feedback signal on the HARQ process, causing a receiving device to combine the multiple transmissions, rather than treat them as separate transmissions. In this manner, multiple transmissions can be employed to increase overall receive energy, without violating maximum transmit power constraints in a wireless communication. Further, these multiple transmissions can be configured based on prevailing signal strength at the receiving device, or based on processing capabilities of the receiving device, providing flexible protocols that can accommodate advanced as well as legacy UEs in wide range of wireless conditions. | 12-23-2010 |
20110188436 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SENDING SCHEDULING INFORMATION FOR BROADCAST/MULTICAST SERVICES - Techniques for supporting multimedia broadcast/multicast services (MBMS) are described. A group of base stations/cells may support a number of MBMS services and may transmit any set of MBMS services in a given scheduling period. In one design, a base station may determine scheduling information for a plurality of MBMS services, generate a bitmap based on the scheduling information, and send the bitmap to convey the scheduling information. The bitmap may include a bit for each MBMS service, and the bit may indicate whether or not that MBMS service is scheduled. In one design, the bitmap may cover all MBMS services supported by the base station. In another design, a plurality of groups of MBMS services may be formed for all supported MBMS services. A group of MBMS services may be selected from among the plurality of groups, and the bitmap may be for the MBMS services in the selected group. | 08-04-2011 |
20120039269 | METHOD AND APPARATUS OF DEACTIVATING CARRIERS IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - Methods and apparatuses are provided for determining whether to deactivate one or more uplink carriers based at least in part on determining deactivation of a downlink carrier. A linking of the one or more uplink carriers to the downlink carrier can be obtained for determining whether to deactivate the one or more uplink carriers. The linking can be a system information block linking, a carrier indicator field linking, a pathloss linking, an uplink timing reference linking, and/or the like. The one or more uplink carriers can be deactivated based on the linking and/or another linking to one or more other downlink carriers. | 02-16-2012 |
