A method for selects antennas in a spatial division multiple access (SDMA) wireless network that includes a base station and a set of mobile stations, in which the set of mobile stations includes one or more designated mobile stations, and in which each designated mobile station has a set of multiple antennas. Channel state information (CSI) is acquired for a channel between each mobile station in the set of mobile stations and the base station, and in which the CSI for each designated mobile station is acquired for different subsets of the set of multiple antennas at each designated mobile station. For each designated mobile station, a globally optimal subset of the set of antennas is selected based on the CSI acquired from all the mobile stations.

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 method estimates a time of arrival of a signal received in a wireless communication system. An energy in a frame of a received signal is measured to determine a block in the frame, the block representing a coarse time of arrival of the received signal. Multiple time-delayed versions of a template signal are combined with the block of the received signal to select a particular template signal. The particular template signal identifies a particular chip representing a fine time of arrival of the received signal.

A method and system eliminate spectral lines and shapes the power spectral density of an ultra bandwidth signal. First, a train of non-periodic pulses is generated. The non-periodic pulses are then modulated in time according to uncorrelated symbols. A polarity of the non-periodic pulses is inverted randomly before transmitting the non-periodic pulses as an ultra wide bandwidth signal to eliminate spectral lines and to shape a power spectral density of the ultra wide bandwidth signal.

The embodiments of the invention provide an adaptive method for base station cooperation in a wireless network. In a multi-user communications network that includes base stations, and in which each base station is associated with a cell, and in which each cell includes one or more mobile stations, each base station determines pre-coding matrices for full-cooperation, semi-cooperation and non-cooperation. Each base stations also determines a sum rate SRfull for full-cooperation, a sum rate SRsemi for semi-cooperation, and a sum rate SRnon for non-cooperation. Then, each base station selects the pre-coding for full-cooperation, the pre-coding matrices for semi cooperation, or the pre-coding matrices for non cooperation. Each base station transmits signals according to the selected pre-coding matrices.

A network includes a master node (master) and a set of slave nodes (slaves). The network uses orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and time division multiple access (TDMA) symbols on sub-carriers. During a first downlink transmission from the master to the set of slaves using downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a broadcast polling packet including data packets for each slave and sub-carrier assignments for the slaves is broadcast. Each slave transmits simultaneously to the master using uplinks and the assigned sub-carriers, a first response packet after receiving the broadcast polling packet. The master then broadcasts using the downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a group acknowledgement packet, wherein the broadcast polling packet, the response packet, and the group acknowledgement packet include one superframe in one communication cycle, and wherein the broadcasting on the downlinks and the transmitting on the uplinks are disjoint in time.

A method and apparatus for transmitting a packet in a wireless communications network is presented. A packet is constructed to include synchronization header, a physical layer header, and a payload. A preamble and a start of frame delimiter are inserted in the synchronization header. Multiple fixed length ternary sequences are inserted in the start of frame delimiter in an arbitrary order, and then the packet is transmitted.

In a wireless network including a base station (BS) and a set of mobile stations (MS), a MS transmits a ranging request message to the BS, using random access, when the MS enters the cell. The ranging request message includes request MS specific information for identifying the MS. The MS receives a ranging response message broadcast from the BS, which includes response MS specific information, request and response specific information to determine whether the BS received the request, or whether a collision occurred.

A method selects antennas in a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) wireless local area network (WLAN) that includes a plurality of stations, and each station includes a set of antennas. Plural consecutive packets, received at a station, include plural consecutive sounding packets. Each sounding packet corresponds to a different subset of the set of antennas, and at least one of the plural consecutive packets includes a high throughput (HT) control field including a signal to initiate antenna selection and a number N indicative of a number of sounding packets which follow the at least one packet including the HT control field and which are to be used for antenna selection. A channel matrix is estimated based on a characteristic of the channel as indicated by the received N sounding packets, and a subset of antennas is selected according to the channel matrix. Station and computer program product embodiments include similar features.
