Abstract: A semiconductor package includes a die that is interposed, flip-chip style, between an upper lead frame and a lower lead frame. The lower lead frame has contacts that are aligned with terminals on the bottom surface of the die. The upper lead frame contacts a terminal on the top side of the die, and the edges of the upper lead frame are bent downward around the edges of the die, giving the upper lead frame a cup shape. The edge of the upper lead frame contact another portion of the lower lead frame, so that all of the contacts of the package are coplanar and can be surface-mounted on a printed circuit board. The terminals of the die are electrically connected to the lead frames by means of solder layers. The thicknesses of the respective solder layers that connect the die to the lead frames are predetermined to optimize the performance of the package through numerous thermal cycles. This is done by fabricating the lower lead frame with a plurality of mesas and using a double solder reflow process.

Abstract: The invention performs long term evolution (LTE) tracking area updates (TAUs), and tracking area code (TAC) and public land mobile network identification (PLMN-ID) assisted optimized wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) cell reselection. An evolved Node-B broadcasts system information including at least one system information block (SIB) based at least in part on an enhanced universal terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN) parameter response message sent by an evolved packet core (EPC) network. A WTRU generates a new TAC, which represents a tracking area identification (TA-ID) of a new cell, based on the system information, and compares the new TAC to an existing TAC, which represents a TA-ID of a previous cell. The WTRU transmits to the EPC network a TAU request message including the TA-ID of the new cell. The EPC network sends either a TAU accept message or a TAU reject message to the WTRU.

Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) includes a control plane (C-plane) packet data convergence protocol (C-PDCP) layer which performs ciphering of a signaling message. The C-PDCP layer is activated upon power up of the WTRU and initial security parameters are loaded to the C-PDCP layer. An initial connection signaling message and a user identity are ciphered using the initial security parameters even before the WTRU is authenticated. The initial security parameters including a ciphering key (CK) may be generated from system information broadcast from the network. The CK may be a public key for asymmetric encryption, and may be selected from a public key set broadcast by or derived from the network system information. An index of the selected public key may be separately encoded. Alternatively, the index may be communicated by using a Diffie-Hellman key exchange method.

An RLC protocol data unit (PDU) is generated for transmission including an RLC SSN, and incurred transmission overhead is optimized.

Abstract: Ciphering control and synchronization for both U-plane data and C-plane signaling messages in a wireless communication network are disclosed. Ciphering entities are located in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and a network. The ciphering entities of the WTRU and the network perform ciphering control and ciphering parameter synchronization. The ciphering may be performed with a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer sequence number (SN) for user plane data, a non-access stratum SN, a radio resource control SN, or an encryption SN for a control plane message. Alternatively, the ciphering control and ciphering parameter synchronization may be performed by PDCP entities of the WTRU and the network. For ciphering parameter synchronization, HFN and SN synchronization and counter check procedures are performed by the WTRU and the network based on a synchronization command message, sequence number window information, or a counter check message exchanged between the WTRU and the network.

The outer ARQ entities may segment or re-segment the PDU when a transmission failure occurs.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for scheduling transmissions via an enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) are disclosed. A scheduled power is calculated for scheduled data flows. A remaining transmit power is calculated for the E-DCH transmission.
