Abstract: Traditional rules that apply to cell selection are overridden to allow cell selection on an acceptable cell, in addition to cell selection on a suitable cell. Once a mobile device acquires service on an acceptable cell, mobile device can inform network of the emergency call in progress or initiation of an emergency call, which allows network to perform necessary actions to support the emergency call during establishment/reestablishment.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for expedited recovery from radio link failure or the like. In one embodiment, the method involves collecting at least one optional system information block (SIB) during connected mode, wherein the at least one optional SIB comprising neighbor information. In another embodiment, the method involves storing dedicated information provided by a base station through a dedicated channel. The method generally involves using the neighbor information and/or dedicated information for cell selection, in response to the radio link failure.

Abstract: Systems and methods for signal detection are dynamic cell searching are disclosed. In one embodiment, the period according to which a channel is monitored is dynamically adjusted according to a condition of an electronic device. In another embodiment, between a first and second monitoring of a channel of a first cell, the amount of time searching for an second cell is dynamically adjusted according to a charging condition of an electronic device.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate apportioning a radio link failure (RLF) recovery timer among a plurality of radio access technologies (RAT). Once RLF is determined, a RLF recovery timer can be obtained and split according to a timer allocation. The timer allocation can include equal or weighted percentages related to the plurality of RATs, and a timer can be split according to the percentages to attempt connection using a RAT during a corresponding portion of the timer. In addition, the timer allocation can be defined according to a type of communication. In this regard, for voice calls, the timer can be split among circuit-switched networks regardless of a network from which connection is lost, and/or the like. Moreover, the timer allocation can be defined based on RAT deployment characteristics.
