  • Adaptive scheduling and HARQ management for cooperative transmissions
    Patent number: 9306719
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is HARQ management, scheduling, and measurements, among other things, for cooperative communication. For example, methods herein may be used in situations wherein relaying or helping mechanisms may comprise the use of a relay node which is part of a fixed infrastructure or a relay node which may be a mobile wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). In said situations, a first transmission with first data is established between an evolved NodeB (eNB) and a WTRU. A second transmission with second data is established between a relay node (RN) and the WTRU. Said first and second data are combined for decoding. A single HARQ feedback for said first and second transmissions is sent from the WTRU to the eNB.

  • Method and apparatus for reference transport channel selection
    Patent number: 8175049
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for reference transport channel (TrCH) selection includes tracking characteristics on each of a TrCH. Whether or not any TrCHs meet a predetermined criteria is determined. A reference TrCH is selected based upon the determination of TrCHs that meet the predetermined criteria.

  • METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COMPONENT TEMPERATURE CONTROL BASED ON REDUCTION OF DATA RATE AND WTRU TRANSMIT POWER
    Publication number: 20100273517
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided for controlling component temperature in a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) and thereby preventing the component from reaching an undesirable temperature. A method and an apparatus are provided for reducing a value of a maximum allowed transmit power to adjust a data rate. The WTRU adjusts the value of the maximum allowed transmit power resulting in an adjustment to the temperature of the component.
