Reduced transmission power time intervals for wireless communications are described. A node may transmit a time interval allocation bitmap indicating a configuration of reduced transmission power time intervals. The configuration of reduced transmission power time intervals may change based on traffic load at the node.

Large data transmission in digital radio broadcasting system and method are disclosed. A first channel information of tuned frequency indicates the availability of the data distribution table. Second channel information contains the data distribution info table (list of frequencies mapped to data chunk identifiers). Data chunks have a unique id. Digital broadcast radio receiver receives data distribution tables and parses through the currently tuned frequencies data distribution table. The receiver has information on how to collect the distributed data. Receiver uses its primary tuner to receive the data chunks in the current tuned frequency. Rest of the data chunks are collected by the background tuners in a parallel fashion by tuning to required frequencies. Once all chunks are collected, data file is reconstructed and available for presentation to the user.

Aspects are described for use in wireless communications. A subframe allocation bitmap may indicate multiple subframes. The indicated subframes may correspond to Almost Blank Subframes. Measurement subframe allocation bitmaps may indicate measurement subframes. A first measurement subframe allocation bitmap may exclude subframes indicated by the subframe allocation bitmap. A second measurement subframe allocation bitmap may exclude the measurement subframes indicated by of the first measurement subframe allocation bitmap.

The present invention provides an apparatus of transmitting broadcast signals. The apparatus includes, an encoder for encoding service data, a bit interleaver for bit interleaving the encoded service data, a mapper for mapping the bit interleaved service data into a plurality of OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) symbols to build at least one signal frame, an OFDM modulator for modulating data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM scheme and a transmitter for transmitting the broadcast signals having the modulated data.

A method including while receiving a live digital audio stream from one or more remote servers and outputting the live digital audio stream via a speaker of a client device, receiving the updated content schedule from the one or more remote servers, generating and displaying a real-time programming guide user-interface including the updated content schedule and least one content segment component corresponding to at least one of the content segment data in the updated content schedule. The method further includes transmitting a content segment digital audio signal request to the one or more remote servers for a prior portion of the live digital audio stream corresponding to the content segment data; and, in response to receiving the prior portion of the live digital audio stream, ceasing outputting the live digital audio stream and outputting the prior portion of the live digital audio stream corresponding to the content segment data.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for channel bonding in an adaptive coding and modulation mode. In some implementations, a system receives packets of a data stream for transmission in a satellite communications system. The system determines a modulation and coding arrangement for the received packets. The system generates code blocks that include data from the packets of the data stream. The system assigns the generated code blocks for transmission on different carriers. One or more of the different carriers is operated in an adaptive coding and modulation mode to support multiple modulation and coding arrangements within a single carrier. The system transmits the code blocks on the different carriers using the determined one or more modulation and coding arrangements.
