    摘要: A deployment and distribution model improves content delivery with a business incentive for placement of kiosks with one or more wireless access points in public locations so that portable media players (PMPs) can receive media content (e.g., audio, video, text, haptic content, etc.). In addition, coordination between subscribing users of PMPs, vendors who provide kiosks, and a network central controller of a content distribution system allow for prepositioning of video content at the kiosks through economically desirable low data rate communication links from the network (e.g., dial-up modem, DSL, etc.); coordinated queuing of downloads (e.g., partial downloads) between kiosk to PMP, peer-to-peer (P2P) downloading between PMPs, and uploads from PMP to kiosk; billing/crediting to correspond with such participation in the distribution; and changing priority/selection of prepositioning of content at kiosks to reflect a clientele profile.

    摘要: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to methods and systems for providing improved position-location (e.g., time-of-arrival) measurement and enhanced position location in wireless communication systems. In an embodiment, an access point may replace information (e.g., data) transmission by a “known” transmission (or “reference transmission”) at a predetermined time known to access terminals in the corresponding sectors. The access terminals may use the received reference transmission to perform a position-location measurement, and report back the measured information. The access point may also send a reference transmission on demand, e.g., in response to a request from an access terminal in need for a location-based service.

    摘要: An apparatus and method of providing a reliable method of entering command mode and executing modem commands with a modem comprising a wireless communications channel. A wireless communications channel inserted into a standard modem configuration splits the functions of the modem between a mobile unit and a base station. When the system enters command mode, only the base station equipment changes state. The mobile unit continues to operate in the same manner as when the system is in data mode. Any command issued in command mode requiring action from the mobile unit is first sent to the base station. The base station recognizes that the command is intended for the mobile unit and sends a mobile unit-command over an independent private command channel to the mobile unit. The mobile unit constantly monitors the private channel regardless of the state of the system. The mobile unit receives the command on the private command channel, executes the command, and returns any required result code to the terminal equipment.

    摘要: Reverse link busy bits are independently generated by each base station and indicate whether a base station has reached a reverse link capacity limit. A remote station combines multipath components of the reverse link busy bits in its Active Set and in response transmits a reverse link signal only when all of the reverse link busy bits indicate that the base stations in the Active Set have reverse link capacity. In an embodiment, the remote station weights the reverse link busy signals in accordance with the signal strength of the transmitting base station and determines whether to transmit based on the weighted sum of the busy signals. In an embodiment, the remote station weights the reverse link busy signals in accordance with the signal strength of the transmitting base station and determines a maximum reverse link data rate based on the weighted sum of the busy signals.

    摘要: A communication system that allows a soft handoff to be completed, even when the communications link between the active base station and the mobile station deteriorates before the mobile station has received the handoff direction message. The mobile station maintains a list of base stations that the mobile station is in communication with, referred to as an “Active Set”. In addition, the mobile station maintains another list of base stations that are proximate to the base stations in the active set. This list is referred to as the “Neighbor Set”. A memory within the mobile station includes information that would allow the mobile station to demodulate information transmitted from those base stations on the neighbor set. In accordance with the disclosed method and apparatus, the mobile station places a base station in the active set upon including the base station in a pilot strength measurement message (PSMM). The mobile station monitors transmissions from all of the base stations on the active set to receive a handoff direction message (HDM).

    摘要: Method and apparatus to prevent system deadlock in a dispatch system by monitoring link activity. The dispatch system is comprised of a set of remote units which communicate with each other by broadcasting one at a time to the group. A remote unit communicates with the other remote units through at least one base station. A communications manager grants a remote unit exclusive system talker status upon request through the base station servicing the requesting remote unit. The base station monitors a series of data from the remote unit designated as the system talker to detect voice activity. The base station sends a surrogate request to the communications manager to relinquish the system talker privilege if the voice activity falls below a predetermined threshold.

    摘要: System and method for minimizing data bottlenecks in Low Data Rate Networks (LDRNs) that communicate facsimile transmissions. An LDRN is a facsimile network having a transmission data rate less than the data rate of the FAX machines serviced by the network. The system and method can be implemented in any type of LDRN, including analog and digital wired LDRNs, as well as analog and digital wireless (e.g., cellular) LDRNs. The system and method involve processing the facsimile transmissions in order to make the data rates of the LDRN and the FAX machines compatible, thereby minimizing any potential facsimile data bottlenecks that may occur in the LDRN due to its slower data rate. Lines of data are transferred by the LDRN only when the amount of data they contain is less than or equal to a line threshold value, which is adjusted according to the amount of data bottleneck experienced by the LDRN.
