摘要:
A method for reducing overhead when transmitting an Internet Protocol (IP) packet begins by selecting a watermarking signature based on the IP address of the packet. The watermarking signature is applied to the packet and the IP address is removed from the packet. The packet is sent to a receiver, which looks up the IP address of the packet by using the watermarking signature. The watermarking signature can be a radio frequency watermarking signature or a digital watermarking signature. A similar method employing watermarking can be used to reduce medium access control header overhead.

The present invention relates to a method and system using dynamic beam forming for wireless communication signals in a wireless network. Base stations and/or UEs are provided with antenna systems having a range of beam forming selections. Relative base station and UE locations are one type of criteria used to make beam forming decisions.

Improved throughput is provided in a spacecraft TDMA cellular communications system by introducing a standby state, in addition to the idle and transfer states, of the medium access control (MAC) protocol, which controls the transfer of data over the radio interface between the network and the user terminals. The terrestrial locations include mobile user terminals and gateways which provide connections to the land line telephone system and/or the land packet data network i.e. Internet service provider. Each of the terrestrial terminals and gateways include a MAC to control the transmitting and receiving of data between the gateway and user terminals. Since packet data is bursty, multiple transitions occur between the idle and transfer states during data transfers. The new standby state maintains synchronization, reducing the transition time to the data transfer state by comparison with the transition time from an idle state where the network does not maintain user synchronization.

A method for controlling the communications of a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) in a wireless network using presence and situation information begins by generating presence and situation information pertaining to the WTRU. The presence and situation data is stored and, subsequently, retrieved upon receipt of a communication at the WTRU. The communication settings of the WTRU are adjusted by using the presence and situation information.

The invention involves utilizing pieces of disjoint spectral blocks. In one embodiment, a frequency division duplex approach is used, where each spectral block is utilized solely for either uplink or downlink communications. In another embodiment, a time division duplex approach is used, where each spectral block is time divided and uplink and downlink communications are assigned to different time slots within the same spectral blocks. In another embodiment, a code division duplex approach is utilized, where uplink and downlink communications are assigned different codes/hopping patterns within a same spectral block.

A tone blocking system for use preferably in conferencing systems in order to prevent control tones from being transmitted to other conferees is disclosed. The buffer length used to process the signal and detect tones is varied, being increased when a tone is suspected to allow for sophisticated tone detection algorithms, and being decreased when silence is present by trimming the silence away. The technique minimizes delay, and its degrading effect on echo, but nonetheless provides for a lengthy buffer required to do reliable tone detection. The invention is applicable to any signal other than tone as well.
