Efficient coding switching and modem resource utilization in wireless communication systems
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor of a modem of a user equipment (UE) configured with at least a first-capacity decoder and at least a second-capacity decoder, a common virtual carrier (CVC), a dedicated virtual carrier (DVC), or both, wherein;
the CVC contains common information shared by a plurality of UEs in a network, control information for the UE, data information related to first data destined for the UE, or a combination thereof,the DVC contains control information for the UE, the first data, or a combination thereof,the first-capacity decoder is capable of decoding data of a first data size up to a first data rate,the second-capacity decoder is capable of decoding data of a second data size up to a second data rate,the second data size is greater than the first data size, andthe second data rate is greater than the first data rate; and
determining, by the processor, whether to decode the first data using the first-capacity decoder or to decode the first data using the second-capacity decoder based on the data information or the control information.

Abstract
Concepts and examples pertaining to efficient coding switching and modem resource utilization in wireless communication systems are described. A processor of a modem of a user equipment (UE), configured with at least a first-capacity decoder and at least a second-capacity decoder, receives a common virtual carrier (CVC), a dedicated virtual carrier (DVC), or both. The CVC contains common information shared by multiple UEs, control information for the UE, and/or data information related to first data destined for the UE. The DVC contains control information for the UE, the first data, or a combination thereof. The first-capacity decoder decodes data of a small size up to a low data rate. The second-capacity decoder decodes data of a large size up to a high data rate. The processor determines whether to decode the first data using the first-capacity decoder or the second-capacity decoder based on the data information in the CVC.

15. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a modem capable of receiving and transmitting signals representative of information and data, the modem comprising at least a first-capacity decoder and at least a second-capacity decoder, the first-capacity decoder capable of decoding data of a first data size up to a first data rate, the second-capacity decoder capable of decoding data of a second data size up to a second data rate, the second data size greater than the first data size, the second data rate greater than the first data rate; and a processor coupled to control operations of the modem, the processor capable of performing operations comprising; receiving, via the modem from a network, a common virtual carrier (CVC), a dedicated virtual carrier (DVC), or both, wherein; the CVC contains common information shared by a plurality of UEs in the network, control information for the UE, data information related to first data destined for the UE, or a combination thereof, and the DVC contains control information for the UE, the first data, or a combination thereof; and determining whether to decode the first data using the first-capacity decoder or to decode the first data using the second-capacity decoder based on the data information or the control information. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
