Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus and computer program products for turbo decoder throttling (e.g., in an effort to limit power consumption by a user equipment (UE)). According to an aspect, the UE may identify an error in a received code block (CB) of a transport block (TB). The UE may enter a throttle mode in a decoder at the UE in response to the identified error, wherein the throttle mode determines how one or more subsequent CBs are processed. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Claims48
A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- identifying an error in a received code block (CB) of a transport block (TB);
- and
- entering a throttle mode in a decoder at a user equipment (UE) in response to the identified error, wherein the throttle mode determines how one or more subsequent CBs are processed.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- means for identifying an error in a received code block (CB) of a transport block (TB);
- and
- means for entering a throttle mode in a decoder at a user equipment (UE) in response to the identified error, wherein the throttle mode determines how one or more subsequent CBs are processed.
An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to:
- identify an error in a received code block (CB) of a transport block (TB);
- and
- enter a throttle mode in a decoder at a user equipment (UE) in response to the identified error, wherein the throttle mode determines how one or more subsequent CBs are processed;
- and
- a memory coupled to the at least one processor.
A computer-program product for wireless communication, the computer-program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having code stored thereon, the code executable by one or more processors for:
- identifying an error in a received code block (CB) of a transport block (TB);
- and
- entering a throttle mode in a decoder at a user equipment (UE) in response to the identified error, wherein the throttle mode determines how one or more subsequent CBs are processed.
