Methods and apparatus are described for synchronizing compression for communication between a user equipment (UE) and a serving node. The methods and apparatus include determining that a compressor memory of a compressor and a decompressor memory of a decompressor are out-of-synchronization based on a checksum failure. Further, the methods and apparatus include resetting the compressor memory and the decompressor memory to a predetermined state in response to determining that the compressor memory and the decompressor memory are out-of-synchronization, wherein the compressor memory and the decompressor memory are synchronized at the predetermined state.

Out-of synchronization detection and correction during compression

A method of wireless communication includes communicating with a server through a first MPTP path using a first IP address; communicating with the server through a second MPTP path using a second IP address, the communication with the server through the second MPTP path being through a wireless node at the second IP address; and communicating with the wireless node through peer-to-peer communication.

Cooperative bandwidth aggregation using multipath transport

Various arrangements for cooperative data transport are presented. These arrangements may include a first mobile device configured to receive, via a first wireless network, a first set of shared data. The first set of shared data may be shared among a plurality of mobile devices using a second wireless network. The first mobile device may also receive, via the first wireless network, a first set of private data, wherein the first set of private data is intended for the first mobile device. The first set of private data may not be shared among the plurality of mobile devices.

Cooperative data transport

Methods and apparatus of compression on multiple data flows for communication between a user equipment (UE) and a serving node. The methods and apparatus include receiving multiple data flows for compression, wherein each of the multiple data flows includes a plurality of data packets, with each data packet having a data packet header and a payload. Further, the methods and apparatus include determining a compression state for each of the multiple data flows. Moreover, the methods and apparatus include performing a first compression algorithm on each of the multiple data flows determined to have a compression state set to a do-not-compress state, wherein the first compression algorithm includes compressing the data packet header of each data packet without compressing the payload of each data packet.

Handling incompressible data packets on multiple data flows

Methods and apparatus are described for formatting a compressed data packet. The methods and apparatus include identifying a first data string within a data packet that was previously stored at a first memory location in a compressor memory, and generating a first pointer that references the first memory location in the compressor memory. Further, these aspects optionally include identifying a second data string within the data packet that was not previously stored in the compressor memory. Additionally, these aspects include creating a compressed data packet by replacing the first data string with the first pointer and copying the second data string, and including an indicator corresponding to a number of pointers in the data packet.

Formatting data packets for compression

A method and apparatus for wireless communication may provide an RLC reset procedure tailored for a multipoint HSDPA system utilizing a plurality of disparate Node Bs to provide an RLC flow from an RNC to a UE. Some aspects of the disclosure provide for a flush request to be provided to each of a plurality of Node Bs utilized as serving cells in the multipoint HSDPA system, so that stale packets are not retained in internal buffers at the Node Bs following the RLC reset procedure. In some examples, the RLC reset procedure is only completed after confirmation that the flush of the internal buffers has been completed. Confirmation may be explicitly provided by each Node B utilizing a backhaul interface, or may be implicitly determined utilizing timers or signaling between the respective Node Bs.

System and method for performing a radio link control (RLC) reset in a downlink multipoint system

A method, apparatus, and computer program product can provide for procedures at an access terminal for handling the delivery of packets from the MAC entity to the RLC entity, with an aim to reduce the occurrence of RLC resets that might otherwise be caused by out-of-order processing of control packets following a serving cell change. In one example, a MAC entity may insert an identifier into a packet delivered up to the RLC entity, to indicate whether the packet arrived from the current primary serving cell. In another example, a serving cell change procedure may include steps to flush a queue at the MAC entity and kill any running reordering release timers. In these ways potential problems caused by out-of-order control packets can be reduced or avoided.

System and method for reducing resets during handovers in a single frequency dual carrier wireless communication system

A method for concurrent bandwidth aggregation (COBA) for a client via multiple wireless networks includes requesting a packet data session for a first path on a first wireless network using a first modem of the multi-modem UE via a packet core network of the first wireless network. The method further includes requesting a packet data session for a second path on a second wireless network via the packet core network of the first wireless network using a second modem of the multi-modem UE. The method also includes receiving packet data over at least the second path on the second wireless network via the packet core network of the first wireless network.

Methods and apparatus are described herein to manage a serving cell change. A HS-SCCH monitored set is maintained to store entries for all pending serving cell change requests. The HS-SCCH for each entry is monitored for a timer period. Once a change request has been confirmed for one entry, monitoring for the other entries continues until expiration of the associated timers.

Apparatus and method for increasing reliability of serving cell change

Systems and methodologies are described that effectuate and/or facilitate MAC-hs/ehs resets in an enhanced serving cell. In accordance with various aspects set forth herein, systems and/or methods are provided that identify transmission power control bits included in active set update messages received from source or target base stations, ascertain whether or not transmission power control values included in the active set update messages differ from transmission power control values that the system currently operates under, and performs serving cell changes and where necessary media access control status resets based on an examination of a transmission power control combination index.
