  • Publication number: 20140328217
    Abstract: A method for wireless communication by a wireless communication device is disclosed. The wireless communication device roams on a network. The wireless communication device initiates a voice over Internet Protocol call. A response from the network is received. Quality of service capabilities and precondition capabilities of the network are determined from the response. The wireless communication device proceeds with the voice over Internet Protocol call without quality of service preconditions.

  • Patent number: 8812034
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure propose systems and methods for managing assignment of short message service (SMS) message identifications (IDs) in a multimode device (e.g., mobile station). The proposed methods ensure that a unique message ID is assigned to each SMS transmitted by the mobile station (MS). Each retransmission of the SMS messages may be assigned a message ID similar to or the same as the previous transmission(s) of the SMS message. As a result, a network messaging center may be able to identify duplicate SMS messages that are marked with unique message IDs even if they are transmitted on different air interfaces and/or by different modems (modulators/demodulators).

  • Patent number: 8744502
    Abstract: Various arrangements for mapping antennas to transceivers are presented. A plurality of antennas may be present. Each antenna of the plurality of antennas may be configured to communicate using different radio technologies. A plurality of transceivers may be present. At least some of the transceivers of the plurality of transceivers may be configured to utilize different radio technologies. A selector circuit may be present that is configured, based on input from a processor, to map each antenna of the plurality of antennas with each transceiver of the plurality of transceivers. The processor may be configured to control which antennas of the plurality of antennas are mapped to which transceiver of the plurality of transceivers. Touch sensors may be used to determine which antenna or antennas are likely to serve as effective electromagnetic transducers. Signal-to-noise measurements may be used to determine when to modify an antenna mapping.

  • Publication number: 20120307621
    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in which blocking of LTE access due to Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Packet Data Network (PDN) recovery failure is prevented. The blocking may be caused by detach and immediate attach to LTE because of internal or other commonly executed network procedures. Recovery procedures may be modified to avoid prolong periods when access to the PDN is prevented based on long backoff delays set by an operator for PDN failure conditions. Based on a reason for failure to reconnect, a backoff period may be selected from an operator define minimum backoff time and a locally configured minimum backoff time.

  • Patent number: 8160015
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods and computer program products for measuring and reducing latency of radio link flows having different quality of service (QoS) reservations. An example method comprises establishing one or more radio link flows with an access gateway, wherein each radio link flow has a different QoS reservation, transmitting at least one transport layer protocol message having a predetermined size on each radio link flow to the echo service of the access gateway, receiving at least one response message on each radio link flow from the access gateway, computing the round trip time (RTT) for the transmitted and received messages on each radio link flow, and modifying QoS reservations of the one or more radio link flows based on the computed RTT for the one or more radio link flows.
