International Classification:

H04W 24/00

US Classification:

4554221

Abstract:

In an embodiment, a user equipment (UE) determines that a client application has entered a period of transmission inactivity whereby the UE will not be required to transmit data on behalf of the client application. The UE selectively transmits a transmission inactivity notification to an access network (AN) to notify the AN of the transmission inactivity period. The AN receives the transmission inactivity notification and determines to transition the UE from a first state to a second state based at least in part on the received transmission inactivity notification, the second state associated with lower-power consumption of the UE than the first state. The AN sends instructions to the UE to facilitate the transition of the UE from the first state to the second state. In another embodiment, the AN can send instructions to the UE to prohibit the UE from sending transmission inactivity notifications.

Abstract:

An apparatus and method comprising determining if the timing of a registration system information (RSI) or a paging occasion occurs first; if the paging occasion occurs first, checking for a page and answering the page on the target cell after collecting system information (SI) if the page exists; or if the timing of the RSI occurs first: reading RSI and obtaining a registration area indicator of the target cell; determining if the registration area indicators of a source cell and of the target cell are the same; if not, determining whether checking the page in the source cell would overlap with receiving SI from the target cell; if overlap, or if same, collect SI and monitor a paging channel in the target cell; or if no overlap, checking for the page in the source cell, and if no page, collect SI and monitor the paging channel in the target cell.

International Classification:

H04B 7/00
H04Q 7/20

US Classification:

455525000, 455513000

Abstract:

A terminal obtains a monitored set containing GSM neighbor cells and/or UMTS neighbor cells. The terminal operates in a compressed mode and obtains from a UMTS network at least two transmission gap pattern sequences for different measurement purposes, e.g., for “GSM carrier RSSI measurements” (GAP1), “GSM initial BSIC identification” (GAP2), and “GSM BSIC re-confirmation” (GAP3). The terminal makes RSSI measurements for the GSM cells using multiple transmission gap pattern sequences, e.g., using GAP1, GAP2 and GAP3. The terminal identifies the BSIC for at least one GSM cell by (1) detecting the tone on the FCCH using multiple transmission gap pattern sequences, e.g., using GAP2 and GAP3, and (2) decoding the SCH using multiple transmission gap pattern sequences, e.g., using GAP2 and GAP3. The use of multiple transmission gap pattern sequences for RSSI measurement and BSIC identification allows the terminal to complete the cell measurements and send a report sooner, which may improve performance.
