    Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling subscriber unit power level using power measurements made on access request transmissions. Since a subscriber unit access request typically precedes a subscriber unit data transmission by a relatively short period of time, the data transmission power level will then be based on a recent power measurement. The access request may also trigger a sequence of power control steps including the transmission of special upstream power measurement transmissions which can be used as the basis for even more accurate power control. These power control features are particularly useful in fading environments such as found in a wireless system.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for combining high data rate traffic and low data rate traffic on a common transmission medium while maximizing efficient use of available spectrum. Since spectrum is an economically valuable resource and transport of data generates revenue, the present invention directly leads to more profitable network operation. The disclosed systems are applicable to both wired and wireless transmission media. In one embodiment, a bandwidth reservation scheme provides that data rate may be varied so that when a particular data communication device is allocated a frame, it is also assigned a data rate for use in that frame. Because bandwidth usage varies with data rate, the division of available spectrum into channels for use by individual data communication devices may also vary among frames.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently transmitting power level information in a point to multipoint wireless system. Multiple subscriber units may transmit indications of their power level within a shared burst where one or more subchannels are allocated to each subscriber unit. The burst holding the power level information may be understood by the MAC layer to be a data burst. In this way, a wireline MAC protocol may be applied to wireless applications.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for converting a baseband OFDM signal to an IF signal while minimizing lengthening of the impulse response duration experienced by the OFDM signal. A conversion technique according to the present invention provides sufficient filtering to limit the effects of spurious frequency domain components caused by transitions between successive OFDM bursts. In one embodiment, the filtering is provided by a combination of a finite impulse response (FIR) filter having non-linear phase characteristics and a cyclic convolution filter. Conversion from the frequency domain into the time domain, upsampling, and cyclic filtering may be combined into one operation.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for communicating medium access control (MAC) data without errors. Different encoding processes may be used to encode MAC data and data unrelated to MAC. The encoding processes used for MAC data employ more redundancy and are therefore capable of transmitting data without errors in more severe conditions than the encoding processes used for non-MAC data. Both MAC data and non-MAC data may be represented as a series of so-called symbols where each symbol is a complex value used to modulate a sinusoidal carrier signal. MAC data transmissions may employ a set of symbols having more widely spaced complex values than the symbol set used for non-MAC data transmissions. While the receiver is receiving MAC data, it may more easily distinguish which symbols have been sent, even when the symbols have been heavily corrupted with noise and interference. Thus network operation may be properly coordinated even in the presence of severe degradation of data transmission quality.
