  • Patent number: 9888425
    Abstract: In a wireless communication system, a mobility factor is used to influence handoff. If a subscriber station has been in a low mobility state for some period of time, the system may handoff operation from a first service type to a second service type. If the mobility factor indicates that the subscriber station is moving, the system may handoff operation from the second service type back to the first service type.

  • Patent number: 9608703
    Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein provides methods and apparatus for closed loop operation of a wireless system implementing multiple input multiple output (MIMO). In one aspect, there is provided a method. The method may include receiving a payload including channel estimation information. Moreover, one or more bits of the payload may be inserted into a subset of the tiles of a slot. The slot including the subset of the tiles carrying the one or more bits of the payload may be provided as part of a closed loop MIMO-based system. Related systems, apparatus, methods, and/or articles are also described.

  • Patent number: 9479297
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for determining, via a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) module, that a maximum number of retransmissions has been reached for a HARQ packet. The HARQ module may communicate an internal NACK to a message retransmission module indicating a transmission failure. The message retransmission module may retransmit at least a part of the message. The retransmission may be performed prior to the expiration of a timer.

  • Patent number: 9474072
    Abstract: An advanced technology frame structure is described herein. The advanced technology frame structure can enhance a first technology frame structure in dimensions of time, frequency, or a combination of time and frequency. A second technology frame structure time division multiplexes second technology subframes with the first technology downlink and uplink subframes. The first technology downlink subframe can be divided into a first technology downlink subframe and one or more second technology downlink subframes. Similarly, the first technology uplink subframe can be divided into a first uplink subframe and one or more second technology uplink subframes. These principles can be expanded upon and can be applied in many communication systems.
