Patent number: 9826419Abstract: Techniques for optimized cell acquisition for long term evolution (LTE) time division duplex (TDD) systems or closed subscriber group (CSG)/evolved Multicast Broadcast Multimedia Service (eMBMS) capable user equipments (UEs) are disclosed. A UE obtains configuration information, CSG capability information, and/or eMBMS capability information for a cell. The UE also stores the obtained information for the cell in a cell information database. In some aspects, the UE may employ the CSG and/or eMBMS capability information to select a weaker cell, during initial frequency scan at power up of the UE, based on cell capability. Additionally or alternatively, the UE may employ the configuration information to determine an initial mutual information (Mi) hypothesis value for physical hybrid-automatic repeat request (HART) indicator channel (PHICH) group mapping of the cell.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2015Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Pratik Kotkar, Alexei Yurievitch Gorokhov, Sachin Saraswat, Ning Yin, Srinivasan Rajagopalan, Muralidharan Murugan, Santosh Kumar Rongala

Patent number: 9532185Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus receives a first MTCH. The apparatus stores MBMS control information for at least a second MTCH. The apparatus subsequently determines to receive the second MTCH. The apparatus then accesses the stored MBMS control information for the second MTCH upon determining to receive the second MTCH. The apparatus receives the second MTCH based on the accessed MBMS control information without acquiring the MBMS control information for the second MTCH after the determination to receive the second MTCH.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2013Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Daniel Amerga, Sivaramakrishna Veerepalli, Shailesh Maheshwari, Kuo-Chun Lee, Jack S. Shauh, Ankur Verma, Zhen Zhang, Muralidharan Murugan, Ralph Akram Gholmieh, Pratik Kotkar, Hashim Shaik

Patent number: 9148236Abstract: Techniques for optimized HARQ recombining are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a method for wireless communication comprises receiving a broadcast message to determine a timing of a transmission window, receiving at least one transmission within the transmission window, and determining whether the at least one transmission is successfully decoded. The method further comprises instructing a lower protocol layer to ignore remaining transmissions within the transmission window upon a determination that the at least one transmission is successfully decoded, wherein the remaining transmissions and the at least one transmission comprise duplicate copies of a message segment.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2013Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Vasanth Kumar Ramkumar, Muralidharan Murugan, Pratik Kotkar, Aparna S. Ghorpade, Srinivasan Rajagopalan

Patent number: 9118744Abstract: In one example, a device includes one or more processors configured to determine that data for at least a portion of a segment of media data has been lost after a remaining portion of the segment has been received via a network transmission in accordance with dynamic adaptive streaming over HTTP (DASH), based on the determination, prior to decoding the media data, add default data to the segment to replace the data that has been determined to be lost to form a replacement segment, and output media data of the replacement segment.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2012Date of Patent: August 25, 2015Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Thadi M. Nagaraj, Hariharan Sukumar, Pratik Kotkar, Shailesh Maheshwari, Daniel Amerga

Publication number: 20140250456Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure for wireless communication may intelligently present a concurrent communication session to a user while the user's user equipment (UE) is streaming and/or presenting an original communication session. Example aspects may receive streaming communication content at a mobile device during an active communication session, present the streaming communication content at the mobile device, receive a concurrent service indication at the mobile device during the active communication session, and the concurrent service (or notification thereof) at the mobile device while concurrently streaming the communication content.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 1, 2013Publication date: September 4, 2014Applicant: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Vasanth Kumar Ramkumar, Srinivasan Rajagopalan, Praveen N. Kona, Pratik Kotkar, Ashish S. Iyer

Publication number: 20130336189Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus for decoding Multimedia Broadcast and Multicast Service (MBMS) data. A User Equipment (UE) may receive a Multicast Control Channel (MCCH) and Multicast Channel Scheduling Information (MSI) in a same subframe of a scheduling period, the MCCH and the MSI relating to one or more MBMS services provided in a Multimedia Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) area. The UE may configure at least a first control layer for the one or more MBMS services based on the MCCH and retain the MSI at least until the configuring is complete. The UE may thereafter configure at least a second control layer for the one or more MBMS services based on the MSI.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2013Publication date: December 19, 2013Applicant: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Amit Mandil, Pratik Kotkar, Omar Moh'd Said Sabbarini, Prasanna Venkata Santosh Kumar Tallapragada
