A satellite reception assembly that provides satellite television and/or radio service to a customer premises may comprise a wireless interface via which it can communicate with other satellite reception assemblies. Wireless connections between satellite reception assemblies may be utilized for providing satellite content between different satellite customer premises. Wireless connections between satellite reception assemblies may be utilized for offloading traffic from other network connections.

Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods to establish a connection to the Internet via a local gateway (L-GW) function for a LIPA or a SIPTO@LN. The establishment of the connection to the Internet may be performed, for example, by at least one of an E-RAB SETUP procedure, an INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP procedure, an INITIAL UE MESSAGE procedure or an UPLINK NAS TRANSPORT procedure.

The invention relates to a method for requesting uplink resources by a user equipment in a communication system, wherein a DRX, Discontinued Reception, function is running at the user equipment. The transmission of a scheduling request for requesting uplink resources to a radio base station is triggered upon triggering of a buffer status report in the user equipment. However, the triggering of the scheduling request is delayed such that the scheduling request is triggered in one of the subframes—preferably the first subframe—of an On-Duration period of a DRX cycle according to the DRX function. Correspondingly, the triggered scheduling request is transmitted to the radio base station in the next possible scheduling request transmission occasion after the triggering of the scheduling request is delayed.

Techniques for providing access point (AP) vicinity information are disclosed. In one example, the techniques include determining a first set of vicinity information corresponding to signal values for an AP at a set of grid points for the coverage area of the AP, encoding the first set of AP vicinity information based at least on a difference between AP vicinity information values for adjacent grid points to generate a second set of AP vicinity information, and providing the second set of AP vicinity information to a device. In one example, the techniques include receiving, for a set of grid points, a first set of AP vicinity information that is compressed based at least on a difference between AP vicinity information values for adjacent grid points, and performing decompression to obtain a second set of AP vicinity information corresponding to signal values for an AP at the set of grid points.

A device and/or method for dynamically adjusting a CCA threshold in an addressable unit that is suitable for communication in a wireless network, the method performed in the addressable unit and comprising autonomously increasing the CCA threshold with successful data transmissions and/or autonomously decreasing the CCA threshold with unsuccessful data transmissions.

The present invention claims a TR069 protocol management method oriented to a WIA-PA network, where a traditional TR069 network management system architecture is improved to extend a TR069 protocol only oriented to Internet terminal device management in an initial design from the Internet to a WIA-PA wireless sensor network; a session connection interaction process between an ACS and a CPE is expanded to establish a session connection between the ACS and a WIA-PA network node; a virtual device mechanism is designed by taking a WIA-PA network gateway as the CPE to store a TR069 data model and proxy device information corresponding to a WIA-PA data model and implement the TR069 protocol to manage the WIA-PA network node in a manner as simple and transparent as that for an interaction between the ACS and the common CPE; a management data model mapping mechanism is designed to establish a correlation from the WIA-PA data model described in TR069 to a standard WIA-PA data model; and a protocol conversion interlace is designed to implement the conversion between a TR069 RPC method and a WIA-PA network management command frame. The TR069 protocol management method has a good reference value for the implementation of the M2M management of the whole network as well as the application and development of the TR069 protocol oriented to the wireless sensor network.

The present disclosure provides a method for supporting UE access control. A base station is informed by a ProSe Function via a MME or informed by the MIME of information indicating whether a UE is authorized for a D2D service. The base station performs an access control to the UE according to the information indicating whether the UE is authorized for the D2D service. The present disclosure further provides a method in which a source base station informs a target base station of the information indicating whether the UE is authorized for a D2D service. The target base station performs an access control according to the information.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback retransmission. An example method of wireless communication by a user equipment generally includes receiving signaling indicating to reschedule HARQ feedback for transmission; determining the HARQ feedback based at least in part on one or more fields of the signaling; and transmitting the HARQ feedback based on the determination.
