20090181685 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COMMUNICATION - The invention aims to reduce the delay associated with setting up a session for a user terminal in a mobile communication network. A control unit for use in a wireless communication network for controlling a user terminal's ability to communicate with the network, comprising—at least one input for receiving event information about at least one trigger event indicating that the user terminal is likely to wish to communicate with the network within a predetermined period of time—decision logic for deciding whether the state of the terminal should be changed to enable it to communicate and—output means for triggering the a state change for the terminal to a state in which the terminal is able to communicate with the network, if the decision logic decides that this should be done. | 07-16-2009 |
20110222451 | Fast Dormancy Requests in Communication Systems - Methods and apparatus for operating a user equipment (UE) for a wireless communication system. A method includes determining, by the UE, whether the UE is in a battery-efficient state; if the UE is not in a battery-efficient state, configuring the UE to transmitting a signaling connection release indicator with a cause value; if the UE is in the battery-efficient state, determining whether the UE is in a high-mobility state; if the UE is in the high-mobility state and is in the battery-efficient state, enabling the UE to transmit the signaling connection release indicator with a cause value; and if the UE is not in the high-mobility state and is in the battery-efficient state, disabling the UE from transmitting the signaling connection release indicator with a cause value. | 09-15-2011 |
20110257964 | Minimizing Speech Delay in Communication Devices - Methods and apparatus for coordinating audio data processing and network communication processing in a communication device. In an exemplary method lower and upper threshold values for use by a network communication processing circuit are set, the lower and upper threshold values defining a window of timing offsets relative to each of a series of periodic network communications frame boundaries. A series of encoded audio data frames are sent to the network communication processing circuit for transmission over the network communications link. The delivery of encoded audio data to the network communication processing circuit outside of the corresponding time window defined by the threshold values will trigger an event report. This event report is received from the network communication processing circuit by the audio data processing circuit, and, in response, timing is adjusted for the sending of one or more of the encoded audio data frames. | 10-20-2011 |
20110257983 | Minimizing Speech Delay in Communication Devices - Methods and apparatus for coordinating audio data processing and network communication processing in a communication device are disclosed. An exemplary method begins with demodulating a series of received communication frames, using a network communication processing circuit, to produce received encoded audio frames. An event report for each of one or more of the received encoded audio frames is generated, the event report indicating a network communication circuit processing time associated with the corresponding received encoded audio frames. The received encoded audio frames are decoded, using an audio data processing circuit, and the decoded audio is output to an audio circuit. The timing of the outputting of the decoded audio is adjusted, based on the generated event reports. | 10-20-2011 |
20120265522 | Time Scaling of Audio Frames to Adapt Audio Processing to Communications Network Timing - Methods and apparatus for coordinating audio data processing and network communication processing in a communication device by using time scaling for either inbound or outbound audio data processing, or both, in an communication device. In particular, time scaling of audio data is used to adapt timing for audio data processing to timing for modem processing, by dynamically adjusting a collection of audio samples to fit the container size required by the modem. Speech quality can be preserved while recovering and/or maintaining correct synchronizing between audio processing and communication processing circuits. In an example method, it is determined that a completion time for processing a first audio data frame falls outside a pre-determined timing window. Responsive to this determination, a subsequent audio data frame is time-scaled to control the completion time for processing the subsequent audio data frame. | 10-18-2012 |
20130044679 | System and Methods for Handling an IP Dual-Stack Connection - In a mobile device operative in a packet switched wireless network, the control logic for handling the PS connection resides inside the modem part of the device when dual-stack operation is required (e.g., PDN connections having PDN types IPv4 and IPv6). This effectively hides how dual-stack IPv4v6 connectivity is implemented towards the relevant 3GPP network. Further, the modem always only uses one and only one network interface, as seen from the IP stack, when it operates in dual-stack mode, regardless of how the underlying PDN connection(s) are set up. | 02-21-2013 |
