Power control for transmission of a discovery signal for a specific communication mode

Power control for transmission of a discovery signal in a communication network (Figure 1), in particular for a D2D (Device-to-Device) discovery signal. A network control element, such as an enodeB (10, Figure 1), configures transmission power parameters usable for determining a transmission power to be set by a communication device, such as a UE (20, Figure 1), for transmitting a discovery signal for a specific communication mode. The configured transmission power parameters are sent from the enodeB to the UE by means of an information element, such as a dedicated system information block (SIB) S30. In the UE, the transmission power parameters are used to set the transmission power for transmitting the discovery signal in the specific communication mode S50. In a further embodiment the discovery signal may itself comprise a power information element indicating whether or not, and possibly how, the transmission power used for transmitting the discovery signal differs from a common transmission ...

Channel scanning method

Power saving method for scanning input signals in a wireless telephone

The telephone intermittently monitors for a received signal. If during a given period of time (a 'third' period of time), longer than the monitoring period (the 'first' period of time), no signal is received, the monitoring period is increased to save power. If, however, during this new, longer, monitoring period (the 'second' period), a signal is received, the mode is returned to the original, shorter monitoring period. In another embodiment, if an input signal is received during the third period of time, the strength of the signal is measured at a 'first mode keeper'. If the signal strength is at or above a threshold value then the first, shorter monitoring period is maintained. Also described is a computer program for causing a computer to control the operation of this system.

Deriving alignment information from a communication transmitted in accordance with another protocol

A communication device, configured to operate in accordance with a first communication protocol, identifies 303 a communication transmitted in accordance with a second communication protocol that is not intended for the communication device and derives 304 timing or frequency (see fig.4) alignment information from the identified communication. The communication device then configures 305 itself to receive a communication transmitted in accordance with the first communication protocol in dependence on the timing or frequency alignment information. The communication device may be used for machine-to-machine (M2M) communications in whitespace spectrum and may derive timing or frequency alignment information from a communication transmitted according to a television protocol, such as ATSC, NTSC, ISDB-T or DVB-T.

A protected wireless network access point allowing limited access to an affiliated group of mobile stations

A protected wireless network access point usually allows access to entitled mobile stations only (fig. 3A). In the invention, if the mobile station 115b is not entitled 115, a check is made to determine whether the mobile station is affiliated to an affiliation group of the access point, the affiliation group comprising several access points and mobile stations. If the mobile station is affiliated then access is granted in a limited access mode e.g. access is bandwidth limited. Access to the network is denied if the non-entitled mobile station is not affiliated. The workload of the access point may be monitored and the bandwidth limitation for affiliated mobile stations updated accordingly. Verification of the affiliation may involve checking an encrypted identifier of the mobile station at an affiliation server. A mobile telephone infrastructure provides each mobile station with a set of affiliated access points associated with their position.

Systems and Methods for Low Power Short Range Wireless Device Communication Scanning

The present invention relates to a system and method for improving scanning in a low energy Bluetooth device. The host configures a scan interval length, and a scan window length. The scan window length is equal to or shorter than the scan interval length. Next, a link layer initiates a scan interval, and also generates a random delay. The random delay may be anywhere between zero and the difference between the scan window length and the scan interval length. The link layer waits for the delay to complete before scanning is performed by the transceiver. The transceiver scans for the duration of the scan window. After scanning, the system waits for the end of the scan interval before the link layer generates a subsequent randomized delay and the transceiver again scans for the duration o the scan window. This process may continue indefinitely until a connection is established. In some embodiments, the scan window may be subdivided into a number of sub-windows, each preceded by a randomized delay. In some embodiments, the scan window may be interrupted for other high priority radio procedures. In other embodiments, the link layer may identify these radio usage conflicts, and may recalculate the random delay in order to avoid the conflict entirely.

Using identifier mapping to resolve access point identifier ambiguity

Ambiguity (e.g., confusion) associated with access point identifiers may be resolved by querying candidate target access points and/or by using historical records indicative of one or more access points that the access point has previously accessed. For example, messages may be sent to access points that are assigned the same identifier to cause the access points to monitor for a signal from an access terminal that received the identifier from a target access point. The target access point may then be identified based on any responses that indicate that a signal was received from the access terminal In some aspects the access points subject to being queried may be selected using a tiered priority. In addition, it may be determined based on prior handoffs of a given access terminal that when that access terminal reports a given identifier, the access terminal usually ends up being handed-off to a particular access point. Accordingly, a mapping may be maintained for that access terminal that maps the identifier to that access point so that the mapping may be used to resolve any future confusion associated with the use of that identifier by that access terminal
