Patent ID: 8824411

Claim:
A method comprising: detecting, at a base station of a first network that a wireless device has tuned away from the first network to a second network, wherein the wireless device includes a single radio for communications with the first network and the second network; and adjusting one or more control loop parameters responsive to determining that the wireless device has tuned away from the first network, wherein adjusting the one or more control loop parameters includes inhibiting cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors from being provided to a block error rate filter and further includes incrementally increasing a block error rate filter (BLER) coefficient value; wherein the method further comprises the base station detecting discrete transmissions from the wireless device and further configured to determine a direction of motion of the wireless device relative to the base station based on Doppler estimation, and the BLER filter in the base station adjusting one or more of its parameters based on the Doppler estimation.
