摘要:
A source device (110) stores predetermined data and establishes a channel selection profile comprising a plurality of channel selections. Each channel selection is derived from a subset of the predetermined data. The source device (110) transmits at least a portion of the predetermined data over at least a first channel selected from the channel selection profile.

The present invention provides a method, dual rectangular patch antenna system, and radio for providing isolation and diversity while eliminating the need for a diplexer or a second transmit/receive switch. The dual rectangular patch antenna system comprises a first rectangular patch antenna (202), a second rectangular patch antenna (204), and a switch (206). Receive path diversity is provided by switching between the first rectangular patch antenna (202) and the second rectangular patch antenna (204).
摘要:
During operation of a secondary communication system 100, a device will perform spectrum sensing of certain channels (either by itself or as part of a group of nodes 104). When activity is found on a channel from a primary user, other devices will be notified that the channel is not available for use. The device may then modify its spectrum sensing to assist another device (or group of devices) that have not yet found activity on a different set of channels. By assigning additional channels to devices with extra capacity, the overall spectrum-sensing efficiency and performance of the communication system 100 is raised.
摘要:
A source device (110) receives a carrier signal and continuously monitors the carrier signal for a first predetermined condition and a second predetermined condition. The source device (110) transmits data if the first predetermined condition is satisfied. The source device (110) ceases transmission of data if the first predetermined condition subsequently is not satisfied or if a second predetermined condition is satisfied.
摘要:
A technique for a secondary communication system to utilize spectrum designated to another (or primary) communication system is provided. By ranking a plurality of secondary base stations based on base station transmit power, calculated required transmit power and path loss, a set of criteria is developed for selecting a highest ranked secondary base station for operation within a primary's spectrum. The ranking may be adapted based on mobility of the secondary's subscriber; and as such the secondary system communicates within the primary's spectrum using the adaptively ranked base stations. Channel selection may also be ranked. The technique and apparatus allows a cognitive radio (CR) network to operate within an incumbent network's spectrum.
摘要:
A scrambling method (510) divides a set of data (200) into a first portion and a second portion. A first scrambling method is performed on the first portion of the set of data to create a scrambled first portion of the data. The second portion of the set of data is modified with the scrambled first portion of the set of data to create a modified second portion of the set of data. A second scrambling method is performed on the modified second portion of the set of data to create a scrambled second portion of the set of data. The scrambled first portion of the set of data is modified with the scrambled second portion of the set of data to create a scrambled set of data (220). A descrambling method (520) reverses the scrambling method (510) to create a descrambed set of data (200).
