Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to synchronization for standalone long term evolution (LTE) broadcast. In one aspect, a method is provided which may be performed by a wireless device such as a user equipment (UE). The method generally monitoring, within anchor subframes occurring at a first periodicity, for synchronization signals of a first type, obtaining an indication of one or more unicast subframes scheduled to occur between anchor subframes, and obtaining an indication of one or more broadcast subframes scheduled to occur between anchor subframes.

Various arrangements for integrating over-the-air (OTA) television programming with streaming media are presented. An OTA integration module may request, from an OTA tuner, a stream of an OTA television channel, wherein the OTA television channel is broadcast over a geographic region on the VHF band or UHF band. The OTA integration module may receive, from the OTA tuner, the stream of the OTA television channel. The OTA integration module may provide, to a media presentation application, the stream of the OTA television channel. The media presentation application executed by the streaming media player device may output the steam of the OTA television channel for presentation.

Systems and methods are provided for controlling electric and electronic devices. The devices may communicate with each other in a many-to-many, peer-to-peer network to provide control functionality without the need for a central controller. Device-to-device control messages may be implemented over short range, wireless broadcast messages.

This application provides a communication method and apparatus, to resolve a problem that an amount of data transmitted by a sharing device per unit of time is limited and a sharing distance is short, thereby improving data quality and increasing a quantity of shared devices. The communication method and apparatus may be applied to a communication system. The method includes providing a communication method. The method is applied to a forwarding device. The communication method includes: The forwarding device receives sharing indication information from a terminal device. The sharing indication information indicates to share first data, and the first data is to-be-shared data of the terminal device. The forwarding device obtains the first data, and sends the first data to a plurality of receiving devices based on the sharing indication information.

Systems and methods for broadcasting wireless data via one or more retransmission schemes to increase the packet reception in a wireless system. One or more devices of the system are configured to listen for an initial data packet from a source device. Should one or more devices successfully receive the initial packet, each device that received the packet can unconditionally retransmit a copy of the payload of the initial packet such that any device that failed to receive the initial packet payload has an opportunity to receive it during the respective retransmissions. Similarly, each device of the system can send acknowledgements to the other system devices that indicate whether they received the initial packet. Should one or more of the devices successfully receive the initial packet, the devices can conditionally retransmit a copy of the missing payload when one or more devices indicates they have failed to receive it.
