| 20090245212 | REPORTING OF ACK AND CQI INFORMATION IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Techniques for reporting acknowledgement (ACK) information and channel quality indication (CQI) information in a wireless communication system are described. A user equipment (UE) may be able to receive data from up to two cells with dual-cell operation. The UE may determine CQI information for a first cell, determine CQI information for a second cell, and send the CQI information for both cells on a feedback channel with a single channelization code. The UE may process a control channel from each cell and, if control information is received from the cell, may further process a data channel from the cell to receive data sent to the UE. The UE may determine ACK information for each cell based on processing results for the data and control channels from that cell. The UE may send the ACK information for both cells on the feedback channel with the single channelization code. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20100172395 | MULTI-CARRIER TRANSMITTER DESIGN ON ADJACENT CARRIERS IN A SINGLE FREQUENCY BAND ON THE UPLINK IN W-CDMA/HSPA - Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate synthesizing a single baseband waveform from digital signals related to multiple carriers. Digital signals can be received relating to a plurality of carriers. The digital signals can result from spreading data symbols from transport blocks to create chip sequences, which can additionally be pulse shaped. The digital signals can be rotated in a positive or negative direction, such as according to a complex sinusoid or a negative representation thereof. The rotated signals can be combined or added to generate a single baseband waveform. The single baseband waveform can be converted to an analog signal, which can be up-converted and centered at a plurality of frequency carriers, which can be adjacent, assigned for transmitting the signal. In addition, optimizations can be provided to ensure threshold power ratio over the plurality of carriers for effectively transmitting jointly encoded signals. | 07-08-2010 |

The method includes applying independent power controls to two or more carriers from a set of high speed packet access signals. The method includes monitoring power across the two or more carriers to determine power levels for the set of high speed packet access signals. The method also includes adjusting at least one of an open loop control, an inner loop control, or an outer loop control in view of the power levels for the set of packet access signals. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100238829 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DUAL-CELL HIGH-SPEED UPLINK PACKET ACCESS - A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in which a plurality of uplink carriers are utilized in a cellular communications system. In an aspect of the disclosure, a wireless terminal configured for use in a cellular network transmits an uplink with a plurality of uplink carriers including an anchor carrier and a secondary carrier, and receives a downlink with a plurality of downlink carriers. Here, the wireless terminal provides feedback information, such as a channel quality indicator and an acknowledgment, corresponding to the plurality of downlink carriers, on an uplink channel on each of respective carriers in a subset of the plurality of uplink carriers. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100238882 | Scheduling information for wireless communications - Systems and methods for communicating over multiple carriers are described herein. A predetermined event triggers the generation of scheduling information for two or more of the carriers. The predetermined event may comprise expiration of a timer set for at least one of the two or more carriers, storing data in a buffer having a higher transmission priority than data previously stored in the buffer, or changing at least one of the two or more carriers from being served by a first cell to being served by a second cell. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100238986 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EFFECTUATING A SIGNAL CARRIER CONFIGURATION - Systems and methods for effectuating a signal carrier configuration are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving an order, determining a signal carrier on which the order was received, determining a signal carrier configuration based at least in part on the order and the determined signal carrier, and changing the state of one or more signal carriers to effectuate the signal carrier configuration. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100260121 | Discontinuous Uplink Transmission Operation and Interference Avoidance For a Multi-Carrier System - Systems, methods, devices, and computer program products are described for discontinuous multi-carrier uplink management in a wireless communication system. Common timing parameters may be identified for use in relation to discontinuous uplink transmissions on each of a two or more wireless carriers concurrently transmitting from an access terminal. A first operational state is associated with a first wireless carrier, while a second, different state is associated with a second wireless carrier. The first carrier may be operated in the first operational state concurrently with the second carrier being operated in the second operational state, with each carrier operated in accordance with the common timing parameters. | 10-14-2010 |
