摘要: The ultra-wideband communication system (10) includes a transceiver (12, 14) configured to receive an ultra-wideband communication signal (33, 35, 38, 40), which has embedded power level data (52, 54, 56, 58). A measurement circuit (27, 29) in the transceiver measures the strength of the received signal. An attenuation factor (15) is computed that compares the measured signal strength to the data embedded in the signal. A feedback circuit uses the attenuation factor to select a power level for a next transmission. In a preferred configuration, the transceiver also has a positioning circuit (25, 31) that is used to accurately determine the distance from the transceiver to the source of the communication signal, and the feedback circuit uses the distance to tune the power level for the next transmission. In another preferred configuration, a bit error rate is used to set power level for the next transmission.

摘要: A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for managing the transmission suitability of a channel in a multi access scheme. In general, information relating to noise associated with a channel is obtained.(202) A potential effect of the noise on a transmission quality of the channel is then estimated based on the obtained information.(204) Next, a rating is assigned to the channel based on the estimated potential effect.(206) Based on the assigned rating, the channel is classified into a grade of service class.(208) Information relating to the channel and its associated rating and grade of service class is then stored in a database.(210)

摘要: Synchronization is maintained among a plurality of network devices (102,...) having local clocks. A first packet including global time reference (606) derived from local clock is broadcast from a first network device to other devices. The clocks of the network devices are adjusted. The difference between a free running clock and a first network global time reference is determined (610). A first network offset is calculated (612). Similarly, a second network offset is calculated to account for the difference between the free running clock and the second network global time reference.

摘要: Briefly, the present invention provides a dynamic channel re-assignment capability between mobile units (70), base stations (10) and sectors (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) within base station coverage areas (20). The wireless devices used in the present invention may include impulse radio communication devices such as, for example ultra-wideband radio (also known as digital pulse wireless) communication devices. Ultra-wideband bandwidth and channel allocation can be effectively managed, even though link quality generally deteriorates near the outer boundary of the base station. By maintaining dual communications with an adjoining base station, the present invention reduces the bit error rate and maintains signal strength (e.g., RF signal strength). This procedure is termed a 'soft-handoff'.
