| 20090312029 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE CONFIGURED TO ENTER AN ACTIVE STATE BASED UPON A DETECTION OF A POTENTIAL REQUEST FOR COMMUNICATION SESSION RESOURCES - Embodiments are directed to determining whether one or more physical user interactions are present, at a wireless communication device, that indicate a near-future potential communication session resource request. Before the determination, a communication interface of the device is in a dormant state characterized by the device not being permitted to engage in a communication session with a wireless communication network. The device transitions the communication interface, after the determination, from the dormant state to an active state. In the active state, the device performs one or more actions to reduce a delay associated with a transmission of the potential communication session resource request in the event that the potential communication session resource request is actually transmitted by the device. For example, in the active state, the device can power-up or wake-up a radio bearer or modem to reduce a delay before transmission of the potential communication session resource request. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20110122784 | MAINTAINING AN ALLOCATION OF ANTENNAS AT AN ACCESS TERMINAL DURING A COMMUNICATION SESSION WITHIN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM - Embodiments are directed to monitoring downlink communication at an access terminal within a wireless communications system. The access terminal monitors data on a first downlink broadcast channel of a first network at least with a primary antenna of the access terminal, the monitored data associated with an active communication session (e.g., a high-priority multicast communication session) of the access terminal. The access terminal may optionally periodically monitor messaging information on a downlink channel of a second network with a secondary antenna of the access terminal, the primary antenna having a higher sensitivity than the secondary antenna. The access terminal maintains an exclusive allocation of the primary antenna to the first network irrespective of a quality level of the periodically monitored messaging information on the downlink channel of the second network. | 05-26-2011 |

| 20100048212 | GENERATING ACCESS POINT BEACONS AT DIFFERENT POWER LEVELS - An access point generates beacons at different power levels at different times to provide an acceptable tradeoff between coverage area associated with the beacons and outage experienced at nearby access terminals.

The femto access point may then transmit beacons at a relatively high power for a relatively short period of time to enable nearby access terminals to receive the beacons. Also, a given transmit chain may be used to provide frequency hopping of high and low power beacons. | 02-25-2010 |

A transmit power of a femto access point is adjusted if the number of registration requests received indicates that frequent handoffs are happening. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100315967 | MULTI-FREQUENCY PILOT SIGNALS - An access point is identified based on pilot signal information that appears on different frequencies. Here, a combination of one or more pilot PN spreading codes or one or more PN offsets on different frequencies are used to uniquely identify an access point. For example, upon receipt of a pilot measurement report, a network entity may uniquely identify an access point that transmitted the pilot signals based on at least one pilot PN spreading code or at least one PN offset and a plurality of frequencies identified by the report. Also, to facilitate acquiring this information, a network entity may request an access terminal to conduct an inter-frequency search for pilot signals. Also, an access terminal may maintain pilot information corresponding to access points in a network and use this information to autonomously conduct inter-frequency searches for pilot signals. | 12-16-2010 |
