Abstract: A UE receives downlink control information from an eNB through a PDCCH (Physical Downlink Control Channel) including one or more CCEs (Control Channel Elements). The UE transmits ACK/NACK (ACKnowledgment/Negative ACK) information associated with the downlink control information to the eNB by using at least one of a first PUCCH resource, which corresponds to an index determined on the basis of first offset information and an index of a specific CCE in the PDCCH and is generated using first cell identification information, and a second PUCCH resource, which corresponds to an index determined on the basis of second offset information and the index of the specific CCE and is generated using second cell identification information.

Abstract: A method is presented for performing handover by a mobile terminal from a source base station to a target base station. The mobile terminal has a Radio Resource Control (RRC) layer and a Radio Link Control (RLC) layer. A handover command is received at the RRC layer of the mobile terminal. An indication associated with the handover command is received at the RLC layer of the mobile terminal. At least one RLC service data unit (SDU) from at least one protocol data unit (PDU) having a sequence number that is less than a higher edge of a window of the mobile terminal is reassembled at the RLC layer of the mobile terminal. The reassembled at least one RLC SDU to an upper layer of the mobile terminal is delivered at the RLC layer of the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A cubesat communication system implementing addressable data packet for transmitting information collected by the cubesat to one or more receive-only ground stations. The cubesat may transmit information to the receive-only ground stations according to a scheduler. The receive-only ground stations may receive information from the cubesat without sending any commands to the cubesat to prompt transmission and re-transmit to a central common station using a bent pipe streaming protocol. Information between the cubesat and the ground station may be transmitted via a connectionless, datagram network protocol.

Abstract: Systems and methods to support intra-quality of service (QoS) class identifier (QCI) QoS-aware scheduling are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) may be configured to communicatively couple to an Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) Node B (eNB). The eNB may schedule packets within a QCI according to information provided to the eNB by the UE. Packets in a QCI may be classified into one or more flows using the information. The flows may be prioritized based on which are most important to the UE. The UE may provide QoS parameters for each flow. The eNB may be schedule the packets based on which flow each packet is in and the QoS parameters for that flow. The associated QoS parameters may be prioritized, and more important QoS parameters may be met to the detriment of less important QoS parameters.
