Abstract: A network device may send resource allocation information associated with a physical uplink control channel. The physical uplink control channel and a physical uplink shared channel may have different resources. The network device may receive, at times that the physical uplink shared channel is not received, control information over the physical uplink control channel in relation to the sent resource allocation information.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may, in a time interval that it is not sending information over a physical uplink shared channel, send an uplink physical signal based on received resource allocation information. The uplink physical signal may be used to determine channel conditions by a base station. The UE may receive, on a downlink control channel, control information. The control information may be based on the determined channel conditions.

Abstract: A network device may select a value of a multi-level transmit power control (TPC) command from a plurality of pre-defined values. The network device may transmit on a single channel an allocation of an uplink resource and the multi-level TPC command.

Abstract: Allocation of resources in a wireless network are described where resources are allocated for each channel having a second parameter above zero prior to another channel for transmission having a third parameter less than or equal to zero. The second parameter may be derived from a first channel's first parameter and the third parameter is derived from a second channel's first parameter.

Abstract: A network device may produce, in response to a paging message for a user equipment (UE), a first message derived from a paging identification and control information. The control information may include an indication of shared channel resources. The network device may transmit the first message on a control channel and a second message on a shared channel having the indicated shared channel resources.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may communicate using a first radio access technology (RAT) having paired spectrum. The UE may receive first data over a frequency for downlink including configuration information for a second RAT. The UE may also receive second data over the second RAT having another frequency based on the received configuration information. A portion of the first data received over the first RAT may be received simultaneously with a portion of the second data over the second RAT.

Abstract: A transformation engine that enables content and information to be transformed from one format, a source format, to a format that is compatible with the requesting device, a destination format. Advantageously, various device types can access and share content via a network without concern as to the original format of the content. When a client device provides a request for content, the transformation engine identifies delivery characteristics of the client device, and identifies a source for the requested content. The transformation engine then transforms the source formatted content into a format identified through a best fit analysis of the delivery characteristics of the device.

Abstract: Communication from enterprise servers to handheld devices in the field supports dispatch, data synchronization, logistics and personnel. Bi-directional data delivery from enterprise-based servers over wireless data networks is enabled using wireless capabilities resident in handheld personal computing devices. Real time communications facilitates real-time access to remote programs, assistance and/or information related to the field operations and asset (personnel and inventory) resource management. Management is facilitated for at least one of: construction industry project analysis, HVAC system analysis, project management, equipment readiness inspection, troubleshooting, inventory tracking, inventory ordering, sales (e.g., providing cost estimates to customers), customer invoicing, conducting legal investigations, field data collection, and multi-user remote function coordination.

Abstract: Various hardware and software configurations are described herein which provide improved security and control over protected data. In some embodiments, a computer includes a main motherboard card coupled to all input/output devices connected to the computer, and a trusted operating system operates on the main motherboard which includes an access control module for controlling access to the protected data in accordance with rules. The trusted operating system stores the protected data in an unprotected form only on the memory devices on the main motherboard. The computer may also have a computer card coupled to the main motherboard via a PCI bus, on which is operating a guest operating system session for handling requests for data from software applications on the computer.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may, in a time interval that it is not sending information over a physical uplink shared channel, send an uplink physical signal based on received resource allocation information. The uplink physical signal may be used to determine channel conditions by a base station. The UE may receive, on a downlink control channel, control information. The control information may be based on the determined channel conditions.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for multi-carrier communication with variable channel bandwidth are disclosed, where the time frame structure and the OFDM symbol structure are invariant and the frequency-domain signal structure is flexible. In one embodiment, a mobile station, upon entering a geographic area, uses a core-band to initiate communication and obtain essential information and subsequently switches to full operating bandwidth of the area for the remainder of the communication. If the mobile station operates in a wide range of bandwidths, the mobile station divides the full range into sub-ranges and adjusts its sampling frequency and its FFT size in each sub-range.

Abstract: In a wireless network, a primary synchronization signal and a secondary synchronization signal are sent at a predetermined bandwidth in a transmission. The predetermined bandwidth is a lowest operating bandwidth of the wireless network. Data is also sent in the transmission using an operating bandwidth greater than the lowest operating bandwidth.
