A computer implemented method selects antennas in a multiple-input, multiple-output wireless local area network that includes multiple stations, and each station includes a set of antennas. Multiple consecutively transmitted sounding packets are received in a station. Each sounding packet corresponds to a different subset of the set of antennas. A channel matrix is estimated from the multiple consecutively transmitted sounding packets. A frame including a high throughput (HT) control field is sent to initiate a selecting of antennas, and a subset of antennas is selected according to the channel matrix.

A base station transmits a set of sounding requests to a set of mobile station (MS) in a cell, using a set of beams, wherein there is one beam for each sounding request. Qualities of sounding signals transmitted by the set of MSs in response to receiving the sounding request are measured, and the set of MSs are grouped into subsets according to the qualities, wherein there is one subset of MSs associated with each beam.

A method transmits an L bit packet in a relay network including a source node, a relay node and a destination node. The source node partitions the packet into first fragment of βL bits and a second fragment of (1−β) bits. The first fragment is transmitted from the source node to the relay node at a first data rate during a first phase. The second fragment is transmitted from the source node to the destination node at a second data rate during a second phase while the first fragment is retransmitted from the relay node to the destination node at a third data rate.

A method for selecting antennas in a multiple-input, multiple-output wireless communications network that includes multiple stations is presented. Each station includes a set of transmit RF chains and a set of receive RF chains, and each RF chain is connectable to a set of antennas. A first station transmits a training frame for each possible subset of the set of antennas, and the set of transmit RF chains are connected to the subset of antennas according to a connection mapping rule while transmitting each training frame. A subchannel matrix is estimated in a second station for each frame. The subchannel matrices are combined to obtain a complete channel matrix. A particular subset of the antennas is selected according to the complete channel matrix. The set of transmit RF chains is connected to the selected particular subset of antennas to transmit data from the first station to the second station.

The invention describes a method for transmitting a packet in a wireless network of nodes. At a beginning of a scheduled time slot a metric in the node is set, in which the metric indicates a need to transmit a packet to a receiver in the wireless network. The metric is mapped to a received power level and the packet is transmitted at a transmit power level so that the received power level is achieved at the receiver.

A method selects an optimal route in a cooperative relay network including a set of nodes. For each node in a set of nodes of a cooperative relay network, dynamically varying channel state information is determined. A transmission policy based on the dynamically varying channel state information is selected, in which the transmission policy includes selected nodes forming an optimal route, a transmission mode for each selected node, and a transmission power for each selected node.

An orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) network including a base station (BS) associated with a set of mobile stations (MS) in a cell. The set of MS are grouped into sets of active MS, wherein each set of active MS corresponds to a beam formed at the BS. The BS transmits a down link (DL) subframe using analog beam forming (ABF), wherein the DL subframe has one ABF zone for each set of active MS and each corresponding beam.

A method and system selects a subset of antennas from a set of antennas to transmit user data in a wireless communication system. The user data is transmitted during a first transmission time intervals (TTI) using a first subset of antennas. Pilot tones are transmitted during a second TTI using a second subset of antennas. Corresponding channel qualities are estimated for the first subset of antennas and the second subset of antennas from the user data and the pilot tones. Then, based on the estimating, a best subset of antenna is selected from the first subset of antennas and the second subset of antennas to transmit the user data during a subsequent TTI.
