Abstract: Methods and devices for allocating power among a plurality of circuits in a communication device, including determining a power budget for allocating to the plurality of circuits from a power supply information; receiving an activity status from a first circuit of the plurality of circuits; determining a first power value based on the activity status; deriving a second power value based on the first power value and the power budget; and allocating power to one or more remaining circuits of the plurality of circuits based on the second power value.

Abstract: A method of performing uplink mobile communications may include identifying a first uplink data and a second uplink data, wherein the first uplink data has a higher transmission priority than the second uplink data, and evaluating a plurality of candidate uplink channels to generate a plurality of uplink channel quality measures. Each of the plurality of uplink channel quality measures may be associated with one of the plurality of candidate uplink channels. The method may further include performing a comparison between one or more of the plurality of uplink channel quality measures to select a first uplink channel from the plurality of candidate uplink channels, transmitting the first uplink data using the first uplink channel, and transmitting the second uplink data using a second uplink channel of the plurality of candidate uplink channels.

Abstract: A user equipment for discontinuous reception operation in a wireless communication network comprises a receiver. The receiver is configured to operate in an RRC-connected state with predefined DRX active state time periods. The user equipment comprises a paging monitor which is configured to check whether a general paging message has already been read in a current paging cycle. The paging monitor is configured to check whether a general paging message is to be received in a current DRX active state time period if no general paging message has been read in the current paging cycle. The paging monitor is configured to read the general paging message during the current DRX active state time period.
