Abstract: A method for cooperative data transfer includes establishing a primary wireless connection with a primary access station. The primary wireless connection uses a primary synchronization channel that is transmitted during a first frame of a super frame. The super frame comprises a plurality of frames. The method also includes detecting a secondary synchronization channel generated by an alternate access station during a subsequent frame of the super frame. The method further includes determining whether the detected secondary synchronization channel has a signal strength greater than a threshold signal strength. The method additionally includes receiving permission to begin a cooperative data transfer operation with both the primary access station and the alternate access station.

Abstract: A signalling method in a frame-based wireless communication system allowing a base station (BS) to inform fixed or mobile subscriber stations (MS) of resource allocations without excessive signalling and processing overhead. In one embodiment, in addition to normal resource allocation information such as a DL-MAP or UL-MAP, IDs of MSs or connections, for which the resource allocation has been modified, cancelled, or initialized, are listed at the start of the frame so that each MS can identify itself (or its connection) in the list. Only those mobile stations for which the list is relevant need to act on the resource allocation information. In another embodiment, the BS attaches a period of validity to each allocation of resources which is transmitted along with the normal resource allocation information. This frees the BS from having to repeat the same information in subsequent frames, and each MS can go on using the same resource during the period of validity without needing to check for updates.

Abstract translation: 一种基于帧的无线通信系统中的信令方法，其允许基站（BS）向固定或移动用户台（MS）通知资源分配，而没有过多的信令和处理开销。 在一个实施例中，除了诸如DL-MAP或UL-MAP的正常资源分配信息之外，资源分配已被修改，取消或初始化的MS或连接的ID在帧的开始处被列出 以便每个MS可以在列表中识别自身（或其连接）。 只有列表相关的移动台才需要对资源分配信息采取行动。 在另一个实施例中，BS将与正常资源分配信息一起发送的资源的每个分配附加有效期。 这使得BS不必在后续帧中重复相同的信息，并且每个MS可以在有效期内继续使用相同的资源，而不需要检查更新。

Abstract: A signalling mechanism in an OFDMA-based wireless communication system in which the number of bits used to indicate the 2-D resource allocation in each frame are reduced, and optimised for the particular frame configuration. The numbers of bits within the MAP-IEs in at least the DL_MAP and optionally also the UL_MAP of each frame, used to represent the Symbol offset and No. of Symbols, are scaled to the frame duration and the subcarrier allocation scheme used for the zone to which the DL-MAP_IE is associated. Likewise, a variable number of bits is used for the subchannel offset and number of subchannels, which can be optimised based on the selected FFT size and subcarrier allocation scheme. The bit numbers in use can be TLV encoded and transmitted within a downlink channel descriptor following the DL_MAP and UL_MAP. Therefore, in subsequent frames each subscriber station knows the number of bits being used to represent these parameters, and thus the field sizes in the MAP_IEs, until such time as the DCD is updated. In this way, the signalling overhead incurred by the MAP_IEs, which can be very significant for a large number of users and with some frame and FFT sizes, is reduced.

Abstract translation: 在基于OFDMA的无线通信系统中的信令机制，其中用于指示每帧中的2-D资源分配的比特数量被减少，并且针对特定帧配置进行了优化。 用于表示符号偏移和符号数的至少DL_MAP中的MAP-IE中的位数以及每个帧的可选择的UL_MAP的比特数被缩放到用于该区域的帧持续时间和子载波分配方案 DL-MAP_IE与之相关联。 类似地，可变数位用于子信道偏移和子信道数量，其可以基于所选择的FFT大小和子载波分配方案来优化。 正在使用的位号可以在DL_MAP和UL_MAP之后的下行链路信道描述符中进行TLV编码和传输。 因此，在随后的帧中，每个用户站知道用于表示这些参数的比特数，并且因此知道MAP_IE中的字段大小，直到DCD被更新为止。 以这种方式，减少了由MAP_IE引起的信号开销，这对于大量的用户以及具有一些帧和FFT大小可能是非常重要的。
