Embodiments herein may operate at a cooperating relay station (CRS) in a wireless packet-carrying network (WPCN). A source-to-CRS (SC) link quality of an SC wireless channel may be estimated using signal quality information derived from a packet transmitted by a source station and received by the CRS. A CRS-to-destination (CD) link quality of a CD wireless channel may also be estimated using signal quality information derived from a packet transmitted by a destination station and received by the CRS. A source-to-destination (SD) link quality parameter representing SD link quality may be extracted by the CRS from the packet transmitted by the destination station. The CRS may decide whether to participate with the source station or with another CRS in transmitting an SD packet based upon the SC link quality, the CD link quality, the SD link quality, or a combination thereof. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
摘要:
An ad-hoc network system for computing a proposed number of node-clusters that enable a relative threshold data rate. The ad-hoc network system includes a source terminal, a destination terminal, a plurality of relay terminals, and a cluster determination engine. The source terminal sends a network communication to a destination terminal via a plurality of relay terminals. The cluster determination engine computes a threshold data rate, C, for a number of hops, N, based on a transmission power constraint. The cluster determination engine determines a proposed route for the wireless communication from the source terminal to the destination terminal according to the threshold data rate, C.

An interleaver and scheme for interleaving in which highly correlated bits are maximally separated. The scheme involves interleaving a set of bits to be delivered to a modulation system that utilizes a quantity of N carrier frequencies. A first block of N consecutive bits is assigned to each of N bins, on a one-bit-per-one-bin basis. The aforementioned assignment proceeds in a particular sequence. A second block of N consecutive bits is assigned to each of the N bins, on a one-bit-per-one-bin basis. The second block is assigned in the same sequence the first block was assigned. The second block is consecutive to the first block.
摘要:
In a wireless local area network (WLAN) that includes high-throughput communication devices with multiple antennas and legacy communication devices with single antennas, training tones are transmitted over a plurality of spatial channels during a first portion of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) packet-training preamble. The training tones are interspersed among subcarrier frequencies of the spatial channels. The training tones are retransmitted during a second portion of the packet-training preamble. The training tones are shifted among the subcarrier frequencies of the spatial channels during the retransmission allowing a high-throughput receiving station to perform a channel estimation on different subcarrier frequencies of the spatial channels. The legacy communication devices may receive and process the training tones and may set their network allocation vector to refrain from communicating during a subsequent interval.

Methods, protocols and systems for communicating in a multi-hop wireless mesh network may use cooperative diversity transmission techniques in combination with mesh routing. In one example, a cooperation layer may be integrated with MAC and/or PHY layers and generate a plurality of virtual interfaces for use by a mesh routing layer. The plurality of virtual interfaces may include a first interface type defining potential mesh nodes that can be reached without using cooperative diversity transmission techniques, a second interface type defining potential mesh nodes that can be reached by cooperatively transmitting with one neighbor node, and a third interface type defining potential mesh nodes that can be reached by cooperatively transmitting with combinations of two or more neighbor nodes. The mesh routing layer may select which interface to use in determining multi-hop routing based on a range and/or cost metric of a particular virtual interface.
