Problems solved by technology

For example, a wireless device may not enable such throttling (or bar the serving cell) if user activity indicators (such as device display status) are in a state indicative of high user activity (e.g., on).
As another example, if the wireless device has selected or re-selected to its current serving cell relatively recently (e.g., and has not yet met a threshold number of failures to move to connected mode on the current serving cell), wireless device may not (yet) enable such throttling (or bar the serving cell).

Abstract

Throttling of transition attempts to connected mode based on user context. A wireless device may camp on a serving cell. A motion state of the wireless device may be monitored. One or more connected mode transition procedures on the serving cell may be attempted. If at least a threshold number of connected mode transition procedures fail on the serving cell while the wireless device is stationary, further connected mode transition attempts may be throttled for up to a certain amount of time. Alternatively, or in addition, the wireless device may bar itself from camping on that cell for up to a certain amount of time. Either or both of throttling connected mode transition attempts or barring cells may also be based on other aspects of user context, such as display state.

Description

FIELD[0001]The present application relates to wireless devices, and more particularly to a system and method for a wireless device to enable and disable connected mode transition attempt throttling based at least in part on device motion.DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART[0002]Wireless communication systems are rapidly growing in usage. Further, wireless communication technology has evolved from voice-only communications to also include the transmission of data, such as Internet and multimedia content. Some examples of wireless communication standards include GSM, UMTS (WCDMA), LTE, LTE Advanced (LTE-A), 3GPP2 CDMA2000 (e.g., 1xRTT, 1xEV-DO, HRPD, eHRPD), IEEE 802.11 (WLAN or Wi-Fi), IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX), Bluetooth, and others.[0003]Many wireless communication technologies, such as cellular communication technologies, provide mobile communication capabilities to wireless devices, such as cellular phones. For example, cellular communication services may be provided by deploying a network ...
