20100202389 | Indication of Uplink Semi-Persistent Scheduling Explicit Release Using a Downlink Physical Downlink Control Channel - A method is provided for acknowledging a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) uplink resource release. The method comprises receiving an SPS resource release signal over a physical downlink control channel in a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format 1A. The signal includes an indicator that indicates that the signal pertains to at least one of an uplink resource release and a downlink resource release. The method further comprises sending an acknowledgement to confirm the release of the resource. | 08-12-2010 |
20110041024 | Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Acknowledged Mode Radio Link Control Status Report for Segmented Protocol Data Units - A method is provided for an acknowledged mode (AM) radio link control (RLC) receiving entity to promote a retransmission of at least a segment of a data protocol data unit (PDU). The method comprises the receiving entity constructing a STATUS PDU such that an AM RLC transmitting entity receiving the STATUS PDU retransmits the segment. | 02-17-2011 |
20110170410 | EXPLICIT CONGESTION NOTIFICATION BASED RATE ADAPTATION USING BINARY MARKING IN COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS - A method, apparatus, and computer program product for responding to congestion levels in a communication system by rate adaptation. A congestion condition is indicated by marking data packets. In response to receiving an indication of congestion, a data rate is reduced. A rate reduction inhibit timer is started, and further rate reduction is initiated if congestion is indicated after the rate reduction inhibit timer has expired. A rate increase timer is used to initiate a rate increase if no indication of congestion is received during a rate increase time. | 07-14-2011 |
20120269099 | System and Method for Determining Establishment Causes for Emergency Sessions - A method for initiating a Packet Switched emergency call using a user equipment (UE) is presented. The UE includes a plurality of protocol layers. The plurality of protocol layers including an IMS sublayer, a non-access stratum (NAS) layer and an access stratum (AS) layer. The method includes generating an ATTACH REQUEST using the UE. The ATTACH REQUEST has an attach type. The method includes retrieving the attach type of the ATTACH REQUEST using the NAS layer of the UE, and generating an RRC CONNECTION REQUEST. The RRC CONNECTION REQUEST includes an RRC establishment cause based upon the attach type of the attach request. | 10-25-2012 |
