  • Patent number: 9468006
    Abstract: In a wireless communication system, a network initiates a radio bearer reconfiguration procedure by sending an RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION message to a user equipment. Then, the network initiates an active set update procedure by sending an ACTIVE SET UPDATE message to the user equipment. When detecting an inconsistency in the E-DPDCH power interpolation information elements indicated in the RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION message and the ACTIVE SET UPDATE message, the user equipment computes a first gain factor using an extrapolation formula. When unable to transmit data based on the first gain factor, the user equipment computes a second gain factor using an interpolation formula. If the data cannot be transmitted based on the second gain factor, the user equipment notifies the network of an unsuccessful radio link.

  • Patent number: 9112906
    Abstract: A mobile communication device with a wireless module and a controller module is provided. The wireless module performs wireless transceiving to and from a service network. The controller module determines a data transmission parameter associated with a first protocol layer according to a link quality of the service network and a number of transmission layers supported for spatial multiplexing associated with a second protocol layer. Particularly, the first protocol layer is hierarchically higher than the second protocol layer in a multi-layer protocol stack. Also, the controller module detects a transfer failure rate for data transmission using the data transmission parameter via the wireless module, and reduces the data transmission parameter by a predetermined ratio in response to the transfer failure rate being higher than a predetermined threshold.

  • Patent number: 9094998
    Abstract: In a wireless network system which adopts a multi-layer data transmission structure, a wireless channel is established between a user equipment and a base station. When a first layer operates using an initial TCP/IP window size, a signal transmission status and a current signal transmission parameter of a second layer are measured. If the signal transmission status does not meet a predetermined standard, the first layer is configured to operate according to an adjusted TCP/IP window size which is associated with the current signal transmission parameter. The first layer is hierarchically higher than the second layer in the multi-layer data transmission structure.

  • Patent number: 8971343
    Abstract: In a network implemented using packet-switching and circuit-switching mythologies, a short message is sent from a first device to a second device in a packet-switched domain or in a circuit-switched domain of the network. If an initial transmission attempt of the short message in the packet-switched domain is rejected due to a network-related cause, the short message is resent from the first device to the second device in the circuit-switched domain. If an initial transmission attempt of the short message in the circuit-switched domain is rejected due to a network-related cause, the short message is resent from the first device to the second device in the packet-switched domain or is directly aborted.

  • Publication number: 20150038141
    Abstract: A communication system includes a user equipment and a network having a serving cell and a neighboring cell. The user equipment receives network parameters from the network and stores a first UE-defined criteria associated with signals measured from the serving cell and the neighboring cell and a second UE-defined criteria associated with individual offsets of the serving cell and the neighboring cell. When the entering/leaving condition of a specific measurement report triggering event is satisfied, the user equipment is configured to report the specific measurement report triggering event to the network only when there is a considerable difference between measurement results of the neighboring cell and the serving cell and after determining that the network parameters have been set adequately.
