摘要:
A forward link (FL) RLP and a reverse link (RL) RLP that are different in design are used for data transmission on the forward and reverse links, respectively. The asymmetric RLP designs may be quantified by, e.g., different feedback mechanisms and/or different data transmission mechanisms used for these RLPs. The FL RLP may utilize a negative acknowledgment (NAK)-based feedback mechanism whereas the RL RLP may utilize an acknowledgment (ACK)-based feedback mechanism. The NAK-based FL RLP may transmit each RLP frame once in sequential order and retransmit RLP frames out of sequence when not received correctly. The ACK-based RL RLP may transmit RLP frames in sequential order, one frame at a time until the frame is received correctly or the maximum number of transmissions have been attempted. Timers with adaptive values computed based on actual traffic conditions may be used to facilitate data transmission by the NAK-based FL RLP.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate providing hybrid cell access points that can support closed subscriber groups (CSG) while providing at least a minimum level of service to wireless devices excluded from the CSG. Hybrid cell access points can allow non-member wireless devices to camp and receive paging signals. Upon receiving a request for resources from non-member wireless devices, hybrid cell access points can handover the non-member wireless devices to an access point that can serve the non-member wireless devices, provide a portion of resources compared to a disparate portion provided to member wireless devices, and/or the like. In addition, hybrid cell access points can vary levels of service and downlink transmission power to provide load balancing for access points. Varying levels of service and downlink transmission power can facilitate additional functionality, such as reducing transmission power to serve member devices while mitigating interference to non-member devices.

A system and method are provided for mobile Internet Protocol (IP) addressing, in a multi-mode wireless communications access terminal (AT). The method provides an AT with an IP address (ATA), and a care-of-address (CoA) in each of a plurality of networks. In one aspect, the AT selects a first network for transmission, from the plurality of networks. The AT sends an IP packet to a correspondent node (CN) via a first mobile node (MN) external device. Regardless of the network selected, the AT is able to use the ATA as a source address. Sending the IP packet to the CN may include creating a tunnel between the first MN and the HA. The IP packet is sent to the HA using the first CoA as a tunnel source address, and the HA sends the IP packet to the CN using the ATA as the source address.

Systems and methods are described that facilitate the determination and request of resources a node may wish to reserve. The resources include a plurality of carriers that are shared with other nodes. In an approach, the node determines a condition related to the plurality of carriers; creates an ordering of the plurality of resources; and transmits a resource utilization message (RUM) for one or more of the plurality of resources based on the ordering and the condition.
摘要:
Interference management may involve the transmission of interference management messages by wireless nodes that are experiencing interference and appropriate responses by potential interferers that receive the interference management messages. Upon detection of interfering signals, a wireless node may determine whether the signals are from a synchronous interferer or an asynchronous interferer. Based on this determination, the wireless node may use different types of signals to manage the different types of interference. In some aspects, asynchronous interference management may involve backing-off in frequency and/or in time in response to interference signals. Asynchronous interference management may involve transmitting back-off beacons to clear potential interferers from a given carrier. Here, the transmission of beacons by a wireless node may be metered to facilitate fair sharing of communication resources.

A method and apparatus for dynamic interference management is disclosed. A frequency channel is partitioned into a plurality of groups. Two or more groups are assigned weights reflecting degrees of disadvantage of a node. Each group is further partitioned into a plurality of tones. A node experiencing interference determines a group, selects a tone within the group, and transmits a wireless signal using the selected tone. A receiving node receives a plurality of tones including the selected tone, identifies active tones from the received tones, and determines a response based on the weights of the active tones.

A wireless node configured to communicate with a remote node using a timeslot structure. The timeslot structure includes a plurality of data channels and a plurality of control channels, wherein each of the control channels comprises a plurality of control units. The wireless node is further configured to assign any one of a plurality of control messages for the data channels to any one of the control units.
摘要:
Multiple control indications are transmitted within timeslots defined for a slotted communication system. For example, a wireless node may transmit a control indication at a beginning of a timeslot and at an end of a timeslot. A control indication may comprise a resource utilization message that a node generates in an attempt reduce inference at the node that is caused by transmissions by neighboring nodes. A node also may synchronize to a received timeslot of another node based on the position of one or more control indications within the timeslot. Here, each control indication may include information that indicates the position of the control indication within the timeslot.

Apparatus and method for supporting wireless downlink and uplink connections. In the downlink direction, an apparatus receives from the downlink node a request to communicate using an allocation of radio resources specified by the downlink node, and transmits to the downlink node a grant to communicate using at least a portion of the specified allocation of radio resources. In the uplink direction, the apparatus sends a request to a downlink node to communicate using a specified allocation of radio resources, and receives from the downlink node a grant to communicate using at least a portion of the specified allocation of radio resources.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate packet routing among relay nodes in a wireless network. Bearer quality of service (QoS) mapping is provided for internet protocol (IP) relays by utilizing differentiated services (DiffServ) code point (DSCP) values to determine a bearer for communicating related packets. In addition, SDF filtering at a gateway node can be modified to route packets over certain tunnels to provide QoS for the packets.
