  • Patent number: 11368913
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for estimating baseband power consumption and using the baseband power consumption estimation to select baseband operation features. According to some embodiments, one or more baseband power consumption modifiers occurring during an estimation window may be identified. Baseband power consumption of the wireless device during the estimation window may be estimated based on the identified baseband power consumption modifiers occurring during the estimation window. Baseband data throughput of the wireless device during the estimation window may also be estimated. One or more baseband operation characteristics may be selected based at least in part on the estimated baseband power consumption during the estimation window, possibly in conjunction with the estimated baseband data throughput during the estimation window, current wireless medium conditions, and/or other considerations.

  • Publication number: 20210321265
    Abstract: An evolved Node B (eNB) serves as a primary serving cell (PCell) providing a primary component carrier (PCC) in a licensed spectrum to a user equipment (UE) in a carrier aggregation (CA) scheme. A secondary component carrier (SCC) is provided in an unlicensed spectrum. The eNB monitors parameters of bandwidths in the unlicensed spectrum, when at least one of the parameters indicates a change in availability of a select one of the bandwidths, the eNB generates a control indicator defining the change in availability of the bandwidth and broadcasts the control indicator to the UE, wherein the control indicator affects a modification in a transceiver of the UE associated with the bandwidth.

  • Patent number: 10993186
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to energy budgeted cellular service recovery techniques. A wireless device may determine one or more energy budgets for service recovery. It may be determined that cellular service loss is currently occurring. Cellular service recovery may be attempted, where service recovery scan timing for the attempt to recover cellular service is determined based at least in part on the one or more energy budgets for service recovery.

  • Patent number: 10673541
    Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatus for a user equipment to mitigate interference in a wireless charging state. The user equipment may determine when the user equipment enters a wireless charging state and, when the user equipment enters the wireless charging state, activate an interference mitigation. The user equipment may further determine when the UE exits the wireless charging state and, when the user equipment exits the wireless charging state, deactivate the interference mitigation.

  • Publication number: 20170318515
    Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of techniques for a mobile device to control timing of inter-RAT handovers. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes one or more processing elements configured to execute an interactive wireless communication application using a wireless communication configuration between the apparatus and a communications network for a first RAT. In some embodiments, the wireless communication configuration does not have a QoS guarantee. In some embodiments, the apparatus is configured to store information from the communications network that specifies one or more wireless thresholds relating to handover from the first RAT to a second RAT. In some embodiments, based on executing the application and current wireless conditions, the apparatus is configured to send a report to a base station of the communications network, prior to at least one of the thresholds being met, to trigger a handover from the first RAT to the second RAT.
