Abstract: The exemplary embodiments of the invention provide at least a method, apparatus, and computer program to detect a single radio voice call continuity activation event indicating a handover of a user equipment between a packet switched domain and a circuit switched domain, consistent with a serving radio network subsystem relocation procedure, suspend control plane signaling radio bearers, reset the suspended signaling radio bearers, and resume the suspended signaling radio bearers in the domain handed over to, where resuming comprises protecting control plane signaling radio bearers of a domain handed over to using a same mapped security key that is used to cipher user plane radio access bearers in the domain handed over to.

Abstract: A wireless device operates such that at least a part of a radio system of the wireless device is temporarily shut down so as to be unable to receive downlink frames and is powered up so as to be capable of receiving downlink frames. The wireless device schedules the transmission time of an uplink frame to occur when the radio system of the wireless device has been powered up so that the wireless device is capable of receiving a downlink frame.

Abstract: For each of a plurality of received system information SI a cache entry is stored in a SI cache of a user equipment UE, each including at least some of the received SI, a timestamp of when the SI was first stored, and at least some of the cache entries also have relevance data relating the respective cache entry to one or more other cache entries. While the UE is in a state such as a CELL-FACH state, a cache entry is selected for at least one neighbor cell, and that cache entry is related by its relevance data to the cache entry of the serving cell or determined from its timestamp to be in close proximity to the serving cell. The UE then identifies the selected neighbor cell in an uplink message as a suitable candidate for multipoint communications with the UE.

Abstract: A user equipment UE determines that a neighbor cell is higher priority than a serving cell, measures neighbor cell signal strength in n>1 iterations, and analyzes them for reselecting from the serving cell to the neighbor cell. Each measurement iteration is spaced from one another by a time interval (e.g., 1 DRX) that is specific for the neighbor cell being higher priority. In various embodiments, the UE measures while in a Cell-PCH, URA-PCH or idle state/mode and the first iteration is taken at the first available measurement opportunity after transitioning to that state/mode. The UE reselects to the neighbor cell based on the analyzed signal strengths; in one embodiment the decision to reselect is without regard to signal quality of the serving cell; and in another the decision is without regard to whether a reselection condition remains satisfied for a specified time period Treselection.
