COORDINATED CONTROL OF AVERAGE EIRP
A mechanism for average Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) control of at least two radio signal paths. A method is performed by a coordinating controller of a site. The site comprises the at least two radio signal paths. The method comprises obtaining, from inner controllers of the radio signal paths, information of long-term time averaged incoming and outgoing traffic per radio signal path. The method comprises determining a time varying reference value of average transmission power per radio signal path based on equalizing terms determined from the information of long-term time averaged incoming and outgoing traffic, antenna gain information per radio signal path, and a condition on total average EIRP for the site. The method comprises performing individual average EIRP control per radio signal path by providing to each respective inner controller, the time varying reference value determined for the radio signal path controlled by that inner controller.
Power control for random access
Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. Random access procedures may include various steps, such as 4-steps or 2-steps. One or more indicators such as, for example, transmission power requirements, may be used to indicate which random access procedure to utilize.
Systems and methods to infer user behavior
Methods to infer user behavior are disclosed comprising a process of predefining one or more activities for a user application, providing a processor based device and user interface configured to operate with the device to support the user with tasks using the user application, the user application communicating an intent message to a transformative power management (TPM) application and the TPM configured to define and output an instruction for the application given the intention and the predefined activities. In some embodiments, the methods are implemented on a processor based device. In some embodiments, the systems and methods apply pattern recognition algorithms and pattern learning algorithms to manage the power allocation to power consuming devices.
METHODS AND NODE APPARATUS FOR ADAPTIVE NODE COMMUNICATION WITHIN A WIRELESS NODE NETWORK
Methods, systems and apparatus are described for enhanced node communication within a wireless node network having nodes and a server. The method begins with a first node associating with a second according to a server tracked logical connection authorized by the server. The first node captures relevant node information including shared data from another of the nodes. The first node transmits, when operating in a first connectivity mode, at least the shared data to the server using the second node operating as an intermediary for indirect communication with the server. The first node transmits, when operating in a second connectivity mode, at least the shared data to the server without using the second intermediary node by having the first node transmitting a message with at least the shared data to the server while avoiding the need to first send the message to the second node during transit to the server.
Managing Power Resources of an Internet of Everything (IoE) Device
Embodiments include systems and methods for managing power resources of an Internet of Everything (IoE) device. A processor of the IoE device may monitor an uplink interference over time. The device processor may calculate wireless communication parameters based on the monitored uplink interference over time, and may store in a memory the calculated wireless communication parameters. The device processor may calculate a transmit power based on one or more stored wireless communication parameters associated with a transmit time, and may transmit to a communication network a request to establish a communication link using the calculated transmit power.
Terminal apparatus and retransmission control method
A terminal apparatus and retransmission control method reduces overhead of the uplink control channel in cases when ARQ is applied in communication that uses an uplink unit band and a plurality of downlink unit bands associated with the uplink unit band. A first condition is set in which downlink assignment control information is transmitted from a base station by a unit band group which comprises a basic unit band, which is the downlink unit band on which a broadcast channel signal including information relating to the uplink unit band is transmitted, and a second downlink unit band other than the basic unit band. A bundling unit will not transmit a response signal to the base station in certain cases.

ELECTRONIC TILT COVERAGE
A booming cell start distance and recommended electronic tilt is identified by retrieving a list of cells served by a first base station. A plurality of grids is generated from the first base station to a predetermined threshold distance. A plurality of selected grids is identified between an acceptable coverage limit and a threshold distance. An evaluation is made regarding whether the first base station is not the dominant cell in each of the selected grids based. The number of grids where the first base station is not the dominant cell site is determined based on a dominant carrier threshold. A column of grids where the first base station is no longer the dominant cell site is determined based on the dominant carrier threshold. A bad booming distance of the cell is determined based on the distance from the first base station and the determined column of grids.
