According to one general aspect, a method may include acquiring a message. In some embodiments, the method may also include determining if a relay station (RS) is allowed to manipulate portions of the message. In some embodiments, the method may also include, if so, generating a message authentication code (MsgAC) based upon a MsgAC key (MsgACK) known to the RS. In some embodiments, the method may also include combining the message with the MsgAC. In some embodiments, the method may also include wirelessly transmitting the combined message to the RS.

According to one general aspect, a method comprising establishing a connection with at least one mobile station (MS). The method further comprising, in one embodiment, allocating communication resources, in resource blocks, to the MS. In various embodiments, the method also comprising selecting a size of a burst length field based in part upon a bandwidth and a number of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols used to communicate with the MS. In another example embodiment, the method also comprising selecting a size of a burst length field based in part upon a bandwidth and scheduling time duration (which can be based upon sub-frame, multiple sub-frame or frame duration) used to communicate with the MS. In one embodiment, the method may also include transmitting, to the MS, a message that includes the burst length field. In some embodiments, the burst length field may indicate to the MS the number of resource blocks allocated to the MS for purposes of communication.

Various example embodiments are disclosed relating to sending and processing messages in relay networks. In an example embodiment, a first unicast message indicating a plurality of wireless nodes included in a communication path between a base station and a path endpoint node in a wireless network may be received at a first receiving node, wherein the first unicast message may be received from a sending wireless node located neighboring to the first receiving node in the communication path. The first unicast message may be processed at the first receiving node. A second message may be sent based on a success/failure status of the processing from the first receiving node to a second receiving node included in the communication path.

Various embodiments are disclosed relating to the optimization of relay station handovers and location update in a wireless network. According to an example embodiment, a request to handover a plurality of mobile stations from a first base station to a second base station may be sent. An identifier associated with the second base station for each of the plurality of mobile stations may be received. In another example embodiment, each of the identifiers is forwarded to the mobile station corresponding to the connection identifier. In another example embodiment, a location update may be performed by sending a message to a network device, such as a target base station, to provide location update information for a plurality of mobile stations. In this manner, one message may be transmitted over a wireless link to facilitate a handover or location update for a plurality of mobile stations.

Various example embodiments are disclosed. According to an example embodiment, a method may include sending, by a base station in a wireless network, a paging message to a mobile station, the paging message identifying the mobile station. The method may also include receiving, at an offset time after the sending the paging message, a ranging request message from the mobile station, the offset time being based at least in part on an identifier of the mobile station.

Various example embodiments are disclosed relating to relay networks or multi-hop networks, and also relating to bandwidth allocation for relay networks. According to an example embodiment, a method of allocating bandwidth in a relay network may include receiving at a relay station a first code (e.g., a first CDMA code) from a first station (e.g., mobile station) via a first link, sending a second code (e.g., second CDMA code) from the relay station to a second station (e.g., a base station) via a second link in response to receiving the first code, the second code being one of a plurality of codes assigned to the relay station, and receiving a bandwidth allocation message at the relay station from the second station, the bandwidth allocation message including the second code and indicating an allocation of bandwidth for a transmission over at least one of the first link and/or the second link.
摘要:
According to one general aspect, a method of using a customer premises equipment (CPE) to represent a mobile station (MS) to a base station (BS) is described. Wherein the CPE and the BS are part of a first wireless network based upon a first networking standard, and the MS and the CPE are part of a second wireless network based upon a second networking standard. The method comprising associating the MS with the CPE. The method further comprising indicating to the BS that the CPE is acting as an agent for the MS on the second wireless network. Also comprising acting as an agent, on the second wireless network, for the MS. And comprising, storing context information related to the MS, wherein the context information includes MS context information related the first network and MS context information related the second network.
