摘要:
A system and method reduce power consumption in a multi-hop wireless communications network. A signal is received from a source node in an intermediate node. The signal includes a request to relay a message to a destination node. The request includes information on power requirements to relay the message either in a relay mode or a regeneration mode. If the available power at the intermediate node exceeds the power requirements, then the request is accepted. Either the relay mode or the regeneration mode is selected, based on criteria for retransmitting the message, and the message is then relayed to the destination node using the selected mode.

Soft decision decoding of a codeword of a Reed-Muller (RM) code by selecting an optimal decomposition variable i using a likelihood calculation. A code RM(r, m) is expressed as {(u, uv)|uεRM(r, m−1) and vεRM(r−1, m−1)}, where uv denotes a component-wise multiplication of u and v, and (u, uv)=(r1, r2). A receive codeword is separated into r1=u and r2=uv based on the optimal decomposition variable, and r2 is decoded according to the optimal decomposition variable, using a RM(r−1, m−1) decoder to obtain a decoded v and a first set of decoded bits. The decoded v is combined with r1 using (r1+r2v)/2, and (r1+r2v)/2 is decoded using a RM(r, m−1) decoder to obtain a decoded u and a second set of decoded bits.

A wireless network with a star topology includes a first central node, a second central node, wherein the first and second nodes are functionally equivalent. A set of leaf nodes are configured to communicate with either the first central node or the second central node via wireless links, depending whether the central nodes are active or inactive.

A method equalizes a received signal in an optical communications system. The received signal is passed through an analog delay line where it is tapped to generate a set of delayed copies of the received signal. In a set of analog multipliers, each delayed copy of the received signal is multiplied by a corresponding weight to generate a set of weighted signals that are then summed to produce an output signal. The output signal is thresholded and subtracted from the output signal to produce an error signal, which is periodically sampled. In a digital weight updating circuit, the weights are produced from digitized versions of the sampled error signal and samples of the delayed copies of the received signal.

An ad-hoc wireless communication network includes multiple nodes. Each node maintains a routing table. The routing table is constructed by broadcasting route request packets from a source node. The request packet includes an address of a destination node. Intermediate nodes in the network receiving the request packet, determine power and delay cost associated with the intermediate node participating in the route. If the cost is less than a threshold value, then the intermediate node participates in the routing of packets for other nodes. The intermediate node then sends a reply packet back to the source node. The reply packet includes the intermediate node addresses, as well as the power and delay costs. The source can thus construct the routing table. The source node can select a particular node for transferring application data packets based on either the power cost, the delay cost or both costs.

An exemplary method is disclosed to accurately estimate the center frequency of a narrow-band interference (NBI). The exemplary method uses multi-stage autocorrelation-function (ACF) to estimate an NBI frequency. The exemplary method allows an accurate estimation of the center frequency of NBI in an Ultra-Wideband system. A narrow band interference (NBI) estimator based on such a method allows a low complexity hardware implementation. The exemplary method estimates the frequency in multiple stages. Each stage performs an ACF operation on the received signals. The first stage gives an initial estimation and the following stages refine the estimation. The results of all stages are combined to produce the final estimation. An apparatus based on such a multi-stage narrow band interference frequency detector is also disclosed to improve the accuracy by combining various filters with the detector.

A method allocates resources of a wireless communications network to traffic transmitted to user equipment over a channel of the network. A packet of the traffic to be stored in a selected queue is received. A maximum delay of the selected queue is determined, along with a start time, a finish time, and a queuing order. The packet is inserted in the selected queue according to the start time, the finish time and the queuing order, and then a weight of the selected queue is updated. Then, a next packet to be dequeued from the selected queue is scheduled, and the next packet is transmitted to the user equipment over the channel.

A method reduces power consumption in a multi-hop wireless communications network including a plurality of nodes. At a source node, a first power requirement for relaying a signal to a destination node through an intermediate node using an amplification mode is determined. A second power requirement for relaying the signal the destination node through the intermediate node using a regeneration mode is also determined at the source node. A relay request message is transmitted to the intermediate node, the relay request message including the first and second power requirements.

The embodiments of the invention describe a method for antenna selection in a wireless communication network. The network includes a transceiver having a set of antennas. The transceiver is configured to transmit a frequency-hopped sounding reference signal (SRS) over a subband from a subset of antennas at a time. The transceiver transmits the frequency-hopped SRS from subsets of antennas in the set of antennas alternately. In response to the transmitting, the transceiver receives information indicative of an optimal subset of antennas and transmits data from the optimal subset of antennas.
