A method and apparatus of a user equipment (UE) for transmitting and receiving data in a wireless communication system. The UE receives first time division duplex (TDD) uplink-downlink configuration information for a first cell and second TDD uplink-downlink configuration information for a second cell, determines whether a subframe in the first cell is a special subframe and the subframe in the second cell is a downlink subframe according to the first and second TDD uplink-downlink configuration information, and determine, if the subframe in the first cell is the special subframe and the subframe in the second cell is the downlink subframe, not to receive a signal on the second cell in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols that overlaps with at least one of a guard period (GP) or uplink pilot time slot in the first cell.

A method for assigning a percentage of a CSAT time cycle to each radio node (RN) in a plurality of RNs that belong to a small cell radio access network (RAN) having a central controller includes: (i) for each time cycle period during which the RNs share a channel with one or more nodes that employ a different radio access technology (RAT), assigning a default occupancy percentage of the time cycles to each of the RNs; (ii) determining if the default occupancy percentage is able to be increased without violating one or more co-existence principles pre-established for the RAT employed by the RNs in the RAN and the different RAT; (iii) increasing the occupancy percentage of the first RN if it is determined that the default occupancy percentage is able to be increased without violating the co-existence principles; and (iv) sequentially repeating (ii)-(iii) for each remaining RN in the RAN.

The spectrum sharing dynamic mode switch in TDMA may allow for the transmission of only one radio mode per transmission time interval (TTI). Such system may address radio interference or retransmission (reTX) failures, among other things.

A user equipment is configured to operate in a wireless communications network being operated in a TDD scheme, the TDD scheme including a plurality of TDD-frames, each TDD-frame including a guard period arranged between a downlink symbol and an uplink symbol of the TDD-frame. The user equipment is configured to receive a first number of symbols during the guard period or is configured to transmit the uplink symbol and to transmit a second number of symbols previous to transmitting the uplink symbol.

A system and method for reducing usage of satellite channelizers including dividing a frequency spectrum into sub-bands; providing a satellite channelizer for each of the sub-bands, where each of the sub-bands may include channels; multiplexing service channels into the channels of one of the sub-bands, where the service channels convey data for a plurality of MSSs. A system and method for obtaining high throughput on a satellite network. A system and method for providing a Fair Access Policy (FAP) in a 4G system.

A base station receiver is described. The base station receiver may comprise at least one processor and memory. The memory may store instructions executable by the at least one processor. The instructions may include, to: receive, via a time-division multiple access (TDMA) scheme, a first carrier frequency comprising a first burst; receive, via the TDMA scheme, a second carrier frequency comprising a second burst; and demodulate and decode both the first and second bursts using a common demodulating and decoding node (DDN).

Techniques are disclosed relating to handling preemptive data services in cellular wireless transmissions. In some embodiments, a device receives a first downlink control information (DCI) message on resources in a first frequency band, where the first DCI message indicates resources for a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission. In some embodiments, the device monitors a downlink control channel on a second frequency band, disjoint from the first frequency band. In some embodiments, subsequent to reception of the first DCI message, the detects an indicator in the downlink control channel and reduces the PUSCH transmission in response to the detection.

A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive a control message over a physical control channel in a first of a plurality of time slots, wherein the control message has power control bits for a plurality of UEs. Further, the first of the plurality of time slots has a second downlink physical control channel and a downlink physical shared channel. The UE is further configured to transmit a signal in uplink physical channel in a second time slot to a base station having a transmission power level based on the power control bits received in the control message.

A concurrent multistandard detection receiver with prepacket transmission detection capabilities is disclosed. In one aspect, a receiver is configured to switch between two different wireless protocols, alternately listening for incoming messages on one then the other protocol. For at least one listening period, the receiver uses two pretransmission detectors that are configured to detect predictable pretransmission emissions. A third detector may detect traditional transmissions. On detection of a signal that matches a predictable pretransmission emission or a traditional transmission, the receiver confirms that an incoming signal according to that standard is being received and acts in accordance with that signal. If no such emission or transmission was received, or if after trying to confirm the presence of an incoming signal fails, the receiver switches back to listening according to the other protocol.
