  • Patent number: 9867175
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for mapping, by a UE, uplink transmissions to one or more antennas of the UE. In one aspect, a UE may receive an uplink resource allocation identifying a set of resource blocks (RBs) from a base station. The UE may map subsets of the set of RBs to one or more of a plurality of antennas of the UE and transmit one or more uplink transmissions, using the subsets of the set of resource blocks, on the one or more antennas based at least in part on the mapping. Additionally, in some aspects, the UE may determine channel characteristics or CSI associated with the downlink from the base station and base the mapping of subsets of RBs to one or more antennas of the UE on the determined channel characteristics/CSI.

  • Patent number: 9775096
    Abstract: Provisioning and access control for communication nodes involves assigning identifiers to sets of nodes where the identifiers may be used to control access to restricted access nodes that provide certain services only to certain defined sets of nodes. In some aspects provisioning a node may involve providing a unique identifier for sets of one or more nodes such as restricted access points and access terminals that are authorized to receive service from the restricted access points. Access control may be provided by operation of a restricted access point and/or a network node. In some aspects, provisioning a node involves providing a preferred roaming list for the node. In some aspects, a node may be provisioned with a preferred roaming list through the use of a bootstrap beacon.

  • Publication number: 20170245103
    Abstract: Techniques for supporting location services for a home Node B (HNB) and its user equipments (UEs) are disclosed. In an aspect, location services may be supported for a UE by having an HNB inter-work between user plane and control plane location solutions. In one design, the HNB receives a request for a location service for the UE and communicates (i) with a location server via the user plane location solution and (ii) with the UE via the control plane location solution to support the location service for the UE. The HNB inter-works between the user plane and control plane location solutions. In another aspect, a location server may be used to support assisted GNSS (A-GNSS) for HNBs and UEs. In one design, an HNB exchanges PCAP messages with the location server via an HNB GW and exchanges RRC messages with a UE to support a location service for the UE.

  • Patent number: 9717064
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for avoiding membership verification for a non-closed subscriber group (CSG) user equipment (UE) communicating with a femto node advertising restricted access. A femto node or femto gateway can receive configuration information specifying to refrain from performing membership verification for UEs communicating with a femto node. Based on such information, the femto node or femto gateway can communicate registration information for a registration request received from a non-CSG UE without performing membership verification. Additionally or alternatively, femto nodes can register non-CSG UEs as CSG UEs to mitigate membership verification at femto gateways, request that femto gateways refrain from performing membership verification, and/or the like. In this regard, the femto node can use restricted access parameters for purposes other than restricting access.

  • Publication number: 20170205555
    Abstract: A light emitting device includes a light guide plate and a light source. The light guide plate has a first surface, a second surface that is opposite to the first surface, at least one third surface, and a light incident surface. The third surface and the light incident surface are between the first and second surfaces. The third surface is adjacent to the light incident surface and has a concave-convex structure. The light source is located on the light incident surface. When the light source emits light, the light of the light source enters the light guide plate and transmits to the concave-convex structure, such that the light irradiates out from the concave-convex structure due to refraction, and is reflected back to the light guide plate by the concave-convex structure.

  • Patent number: 9699712
    Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate communicating PSC split information regarding neighboring cells. The PSC split information can be transmitted in one or more overhead messages selected based on network deployment. Where macro cells and femto cells provide PSC split information, which can be a PSC range for related cells, PSC list, etc., the information can be transmitted in a low priority overhead message since it can be obtained at a source cell. Where only femto cells or closed subscriber group (CSG) cells provide PSC split information, the information can be transmitted in a higher priority more frequently transmitted message. In this regard, the information is available at target cells since not all devices can access CSG cells. Thus, by providing the PSC split information in a more frequently transmitted message, devices can retrieve the PSC split information early on in communications to lower power consumption.
