  • Patent number: 10587392
    Abstract: A method of wireless communication using half duplex frequency division duplex (HD-FDD) comprises, at a wireless communications device, receiving downlink data during a plurality of downlink subframes and transmitting a hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) on an uplink. The HARQ-ACK relates to downlink data received during at least two of the plurality of downlink subframes and the HARQ-ACK is transmitted during one uplink subframe.

  • Patent number: 10574265
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for transmitting and receiving data over a physical channel using a polar code are provided. The polar code defines a plurality of virtual channels within the physical channel and allocates a subset of the virtual channels for the transmission of data. The method for transmitting data: receives a block of data to be transmitted; receives additional data to be transmitted together with the block of data; selects one or more of the virtual channels; determines a scrambling sequence based on the additional data; applies the scrambling sequence to those bits of the block of data to generate a scrambled version of the block of data; and transmits the scrambled version of the block of data according to the polar code.

  • Patent number: 9930639
    Abstract: Since OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing), which is a downlink access scheme used for an LTE (Long Term Evolution) communication system, is weak at interference, it is preferable that the number of base stations for transmitting the same E-MBMS (Evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service) data base not excessive. Thus, the mobile terminal performs: processing of obtaining measurement quality values by measuring reception quality of each base station; processing of deciding on whether the measurement quality value of a serving base station exceeds a certain receiving level; processing of adding measurement quality values of other base stations to the measurement quality value of the serving base station until the sum exceeds the certain receiving level; and processing of notifying the serving base station of the serving base station and other base stations as candidates for an active set for E-MBMS.

  • Patent number: 9892285
    Abstract: An accessory, an electronic apparatus and a system for accessory certification is disclosed. The accessory comprises an encryption chip, with the encryption chip comprising a first memory module, configured to store a private certification key and a mixed certification key formed at least by combining a public certification key and pseudo keys according to a predetermined rule. The processing module of the electronic apparatus at least extracts the public certification key from the mixed certification key according to an algorithm matched with the predetermined rule when the electronic apparatus and the accessory are forming a physical connection. The processing module uses the public certification key to certify the accessory. In such a manner, the present invention can improve the security level of keys so as to improve the security and reliability for the electronic apparatus to use the accessory.

  • Patent number: 9554378
    Abstract: A mobile terminal monitors a candidate set (Candidate Set) of L1/L2 control information. However, when a base station carries out signaling of a candidate set to each of all mobile terminals, the load on the base station from the viewpoint of radio resources becomes large. Furthermore, the amount of processing in performing a blind detection of each mobile terminal also increases. Therefore, the base station carries out a process of performing grouping of the above-mentioned mobile terminal which is a destination of transmission of the above-mentioned L1/L2 control signal, a process of allocating an L1/L2 control signal to be transmitted to a predetermined mobile terminal to the control channel elements included in a group to which the predetermined mobile terminal is belonging on the basis of attribution information about the mobile terminal.

  • Patent number: 9306993
    Abstract: A communication system has three types of cells including, in addition to an MBMS dedicated cell, a unicast cell to and from which a mobile terminal can transmit and receive individual communication data, and a unicast/MBMS-mixed cell which can provide both a service provided by the unicast cell and a service provided by the MBMS dedicated cell. While receiving the broadcast type data transmitted from the MBMS dedicated cell, the mobile terminal makes a notification of an MBMS receiving state via the unicast cell or the unicast/MBMS-mixed cell to transmit information for identifying the MBMS dedicated cell, and the communication system transmits a paging signal to the mobile terminal currently receiving the broadcast type data transmitted from the MBMS dedicated cell on the basis of a tracking area (Tracking Area) in which the mobile terminal is tracked, the tracking area being determined on the basis of the information transmitted.
