  • Patent number: 11029748
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus for adaptively modifying latency times governing entry of a PCIe interface into low power states are described. A method performed by a controller of a PCIe interface includes determining that a burst of data is being transmitted on a PCIe link, configuring a timer to signal when an entry latency period has elapsed after determining that a PCIe link has entered an idle state, causing one or more circuits of the PCIe interface to enter a low-power state when the timer signals that the entry latency period has elapsed before the PCIe link becomes active, and increasing the entry latency period when a number of entries of the PCIe interface to the low-power state that occurs during transmission of the burst of data exceeds a threshold maximum number.

  • Patent number: 11026062
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for managing mobile-terminating short message service re-transmissions for wireless devices. A cellular network entity of a cellular network may receive a request to provide a short message service message to a wireless device. The wireless device may be registered with the cellular network entity via at least two access types. An attempt to provide the short message service message to the wireless device via a first access type may be performed. An attempt to provide the short message service message to the wireless device via a second access type may be performed if the attempt to provide the short message service message to the wireless device via the first access type is unsuccessful.

  • Patent number: 10966248
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to providing coexistence features for cellular communication in unlicensed spectrum. A wireless device may communicate with a cellular base station in accordance with an original communication configuration. The wireless device may determine that a communication activity is occurring at the wireless device that has a duration longer than a duration threshold. The wireless device may provide an indication to the cellular base station to modify the communication configuration with respect to operation in an unlicensed frequency band based at least in part on determining that a communication activity is occurring at the wireless device that has a duration longer than the duration threshold. The wireless device may communicate with the cellular base station in accordance with a modified communication configuration.

  • Patent number: 10728870
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for avoiding attempts by a UE to attach to a RAT network when that RAT network is unavailable. According to certain aspects, the UE may detect scenarios when the RAT network is unavailable and take preemptive action to prevent the UE from attempting to acquire service on that RAT. For example, the UE may effectively remove that RAT from a list of supported RATs by sending a UE capability message indicating that RAT is not supported, which may prevent network-initiated transitions of the UE to that RAT. The UE may also remove the unavailable RAT from an internal list of supported RATs, which may prevent UE-initiated transitions to that RAT.

  • Patent number: RE49591
    Abstract: Aspects disclosed in the detailed description include power saving techniques in computing devices. In particular, as data is received by a modem processor in a computing device, the data is held until the expiration of a modem timer. The data is then passed to an application processor in the computing device over a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) interconnectivity bus. On receipt of the data from the modem processor, the application processor sends data held by the application processor to the modem processor over the PCIe interconnectivity bus. The application processor also has an uplink timer. If no data is received from the modem processor before expiration of the uplink timer, the application processor sends any collected data to the modem processor at expiration of the uplink timer. However, if data is received from the modem processor, the uplink timer is reset.
