  • Publication number: 20230085934
    Abstract: There is provided an apparatus comprising means for receiving, from a full-duplex network node, at least one message comprising at least primary scheduling information comprising at least a primary resource allocation for uplink data transmission, wherein a configuration related to the primary resource allocation indicates that the primary resource allocation is adjustable; sensing reservation signals on a physical resource block group basis, the sensing comprising determining one or more contiguous sets of physical resource block groups on which the apparatus is allowed to transmit; adjusting the primary resource allocation to correspond to at least a subset of the one or more contiguous sets of PRB groups to obtain an adjusted resource allocation; and transmitting, to the full-duplex network node, an adjustment indication on uplink control channel resource corresponding to the primary resource allocation, wherein the uplink control channel resource is received in the at least one message or is pre-configure

  • Patent number: 9654149
    Abstract: In a first aspect an exemplary embodiment of the invention provides a method that includes instantiating a plurality of radio protocols, operating the plurality of radio protocols with an underlying physical layer, where each instantiation of a same radio protocol is embodied in a same code module and where each instantiation has associated data stored in a memory. The operating of the plurality of radio protocols comprises executing each instantiation of the radio protocols so that a portion of resources are shared between different instantiations of the radio protocols and different instantiations of radio protocols do not interfere with each other.

  • Publication number: 20130225068
    Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer program product embodiments are disclosed to enhance multi-radio coexistence. An example embodiment comprises: determining for a first radio in a multi-radio device, a next instant of activity; transmitting by a second radio in the multi-radio device, to another wireless device, control information including a duration value for an interval to occur before a next instant of activity by the first radio, during which interval wireless communication between the second radio of the multi-radio device and the another wireless device must be completed; and entering by the second radio in the multi-radio device, a power save state by end of the interval.

  • Publication number: 20130194985
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for improved in-device coexistence. A base station defines a DRX cycle for a user equipment including defining at least one scheduling timer, such that a downlink HARQ process can be initiated only when the scheduling timer is active and an uplink HARQ process can be initiated only while the at least one scheduling timer is active. Alternatively, a DRX cycle is defined so as to include a measurement gap during which HARQ retransmissions are skipped during the measurement gap.

  • Patent number: 8340706
    Abstract: In a non-limiting and exemplary embodiment, a method is provided for controlling co-existence of multiple radio access units. The method comprises: receiving a scheduling request comprising value information on at least some of radio independent scheduling parameters of a control interface common to a plurality of radio access units, scheduling radio access on the basis of the value information on at least some of the radio independent scheduling parameters, and sending a response to the scheduling request in a given form in accordance with the control interface common to the radio access units.

  • Publication number: 20110075596
    Abstract: In a multi-radio device it is determined that a first radio application requests change to a first operational state during a time at which a second radio application is in or requests a second operational state. A local memory is accessed to determine a first and a second budget of resources for the respective first and second operational states of the respective first and second radio applications. There is at least one common resource among the first and second budgets. From resource allocation rules stored in the memory is determined that each of the common resources are mutually exclusive as between the first and second operational states of the respective first and second radio applications. As a result of the determining from the resource allocation rules, the request of the first radio application is granted by allocating resources according to the first budget for the first operational state while resources according to the second budget are allocated for the second operational state.

  • Publication number: 20110059702
    Abstract: An apparatus for providing management of radio operation in a multiradio environment may include a processor. The processor may be configured to receive a communication in accordance with a protocol associated with a particular radio access technology in which the communication is associated with accessing a hardware resource for radio communication, determine whether the received communication complies with instructions defining parameters associated with providing shared access to hardware resources among a plurality of protocols associated with respective different radio access technologies, and respond to the received communication based on a result of the determining.

  • Publication number: 20100115528
    Abstract: A method for providing a division of SDR RA into operational states is described. The method includes, in a device which including a plurality of shared device resources and a plurality of RAs, receiving, from a first RA, a request to change a state of the first RA to a requested active state. The requested active state is one of a plurality of potential active states for the first RA and each potential active state has an associated set of device resource requirements. The method also includes determining whether sufficient device resources exist for the requested active state based at least in part on currently allocated device resources. In response to a determination that sufficient device resources exist, the change to the requested active state for the first RA is approved. Apparatus and computer readable media are also described.
