Abstract: A method of power headroom reporting (PHR) is proposed. A UE is configured with a plurality of component carriers (CCs) and is served by one or more power amplifiers (PAs) in a wireless system with carrier aggregation. The UE determines transmit power limitation (TPL) information that comprises a set of TPL values, each TPL value corresponds to a UE-configured maximum transmit power for UE-level, PA-level, and CC-level. The TPL information is then reduced to non-redundant TPL values. Based on the non-redundant TPL values, the UE determines power headroom (PH) information that comprises a set of PH values. Each PH value equals to a TPL value subtracted by a UE-calculated transmit power. The UE reports the PH information to a base station via a fixed-length or variable-length MAC CE at each PHR reporting instance.

Abstract: Methods of MDT information logging and reporting are provided. In one embodiment, a method is provided to resolve shortcomings of prior art by correlating UL measurements with QoS information to enable UL performance analysis and accurate detection of coverage problems. In another embodiment, a method is provided to resolve the shortcomings of the prior art by making DL measurements and location information collecting or logging conditional on UL measurements.

Abstract: A method for UE to indicate its upcoming transceiver operation status to network and help network to avoid inefficient radio resource schedule for better network efficiency is proposed. The proposed method also helps network to manage the connections for user applications to prevent unnecessary disruption due to short-term radio link disconnection. In one embodiment, the UE is a dual SIM dual standby (DSDS) UE. The UE first establishes an RRC connection and starts data transmission. Upon detecting a suspension event, the UE sends a signaling connection release indication (SCRI) with a new cause for “UE requested PS data suspension”. The SCRI may further include a suspension reason and a suspension period. When the network receives the SCRI, it will interpret that the UE may not be able to receive its downlink signal during the upcoming period and may prevent schedule radio resource for the UE.

Abstract: A wireless device having a central control entity that coordinates multiple radio transceivers co-located within the same device platform to mitigate coexistence interference. The wireless device comprises an LTE transceiver, a WiFi transceiver, a BT transceiver, or a GNSS receiver. In one embodiment, the central control entity receives radio signal information from the transceivers and determines control information. The control information is used to trigger FDM solution such that the transceivers operate in designated frequency channels to mitigate co-existence interference. In another embodiment, the central control entity receives traffic and scheduling information from the transceivers and determines control information. The control information is used to trigger TDM solution such that the transceivers are scheduled for transmitting or receiving radio signals over specific time duration to mitigate co-existence interference.
