摘要:
An apparatus comprising a controller configured to pack a plurality of Service Data Units (SDUs) from a plurality of connections associated with a Mobile Station (MS) into a single Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (PDU). In various embodiments, the controller may be further configured to generate a Generic MAC Header (GMH) that indicates that a plurality of Service Data Units (SDUs) from a plurality of connections associated with a Mobile Station (MS) have been packed into the MAC PDU. In some embodiments, the controller may be further configured to generate, for each SDU, an associated Extended Packing Sub-Header (EPSH). The apparatus further comprising a memory configured to store MAC PDU. The apparatus also comprising a wireless transceiver configured to transmit the MAC PDU.

A prospective relay station sends a report indicative of radio resource sets/preamble sequences used by its neighbors. Where the reported radio resource sets comprise less than all available radio resource sets, a radio resource set that is not indicated in the report is assigned; else where the reported radio resource sets comprise all available radio resource sets, a resource set indicated in the report is assigned. A message is sent to the prospective relay station indicates the assigned radio resource set and an identifier for use as an enabled relay station. The message may include signal strength and IDs. Apparatus, methods and computer programs are detailed for both a base station and the relay node. Radio resource set re-assignment, managed mode relay operations (where the base station schedules traffic among relays using the same radio resource set), and power control of relays and associated mobile stations are also described.

Various embodiments are disclosed, which may include transmitting a transmission schedule for a data burst to a plurality of relay stations in a wireless relay network. The transmission schedule may identify a data channel for transmission of the data burst and a corresponding shared negative acknowledgment feedback channel for transmission of a negative acknowledgment. The negative acknowledgment feedback channel may be shared by the plurality of relay stations.

Aspects of this invention provide a MC wireless network, and a method, to allocate at least one carrier to a mobile station. The method includes making an initial carrier allocation of M carrier(s) to the mobile station, where M is less than or equal to a total number of carriers N in the MC wireless network; and subsequently re-allocating carriers to the mobile station, based on at least one criterion, by at least one of changing the value of M and moving the mobile station to at least one different carrier. A mobile station that is operable in the MC wireless network for dynamically changing its carrier allocations is also provided.

Various example embodiments are disclosed herein. According to one example embodiment, a method may include obtaining a first channel quality measurement for a wireless node such as a mobile station or relay station in a wireless network. The method may further include sending, from the wireless node, a full channel quality indicator (CQI) to a base station based on the first channel quality measurement. The method may further include obtaining a second channel quality measurement for the wireless node. The method may further include sending a differential CQI to the base station based on comparing the second channel quality measurement to the first channel quality measurement. The differential CQI may occupy less channel resources than the full CQI.

Various example embodiments are disclosed relating to wireless networks such as relay networks or multi-hop networks, and also relating to transmitting a signal using coding schemes and multiple frequencies. According to an example embodiment, a different wireless signature may be assigned to one or more nodes in a wireless network, each wireless signature indicating an energy transmission on a set of tones, each wireless signature being substantially orthogonal with or distinguishable from one or more other wireless signatures. A wireless signature may be received, and a transmitting wireless node may be determined based on the wireless signature.
