Position location for wireless communication systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a base station communicates a positioning reference signal (PRS) to wireless communication devices over a downlink in a wireless communication system by encoding a PRS into a first set of transmission resources, encoding other information into a second set of transmissions, and multiplexing the two sets of resources into a subframe such that the one set of resources is multiplexed into at least a portion of the first set OFDM symbols based on an identifier associated with the base station.

TL;DR: In this article, the access control list management component facilitates generation and maintenance of white lists, black lists, or white list profile(s) for femto cell access management based on desired complexity.

TL;DR: In this article, a femto cell service framework is utilized for the purchase and service of femtocell equipment and customer support thereof, and a point of sale (POS) platform enables the purchase of Femtocell devices based on eligibility criteria.

TL;DR: In this article, a wireless device determines (702) if it is simultaneously connected to a plurality of P2P communication groups and instantiates (704) a bridge interface (404) at the wireless device (102) for communications between each peer-to-peer communication group (104).

TL;DR: In this paper, each cell in the communications system can be designed to operate in accordance with a set of backoff factors that identify the reductions in peak transmit power levels for the channels associated with the back-off factors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed techniques for transmitting and receiving data in an efficient manner to potentially improve capacity of a wireless network and achieve power savings for a wireless device using a Continuous Packet Connectivity (CPC) mode comprised of multiple discontinuous transmission (DTX) modes and at least one (DRX) mode.

TL;DR: In this article, transmission patterns for pilot symbols transmitted from a mobile station or base station are provided. The transmission pattern allows for improved receipt of the pilot symbol transmitted, and schemes for improving the ability to multiplex pilot symbols without interference and/or biasing from different mobile stations over the same frequencies and in the same time slots.

TL;DR: In this paper, a fixed mobile (606) is placed at a location in the handoff region between the isolated cell and another cell in the network, where the fixed mobile either performs measurements of base station pilots on command of the base and reports the timing information, or sends a burst transmission at a specified time and power level to be measured by the base stations.
