摘要:
Apparatuses and methodologies are described that coordinate multiple wireless communication protocols within a mobile device. A single mobile device can contain multiple communication components (e.g., a Bluetooth component, an IEEE 802.11b/g component). To prevent interference and possible loss of data, one communication component may be prevented from transmitting or receiving data packets while the other communication component is either transmitting or receiving. The components may be coordinated by a central controller located in the mobile device. Alternatively, the communication components may exchange messages to determine transmission or reception priority. In addition, one communication component may monitor the status of the other communication component to determine unused communication slots.

In a mobile station-mobile receiver arrangement a method and apparatus for a radio link control (RLC) protocol that allows partial recovery of data for streaming services. The maximum number of retransmissions allowed by the method for each RLC block is a function of the maximum delivery delay required by the streaming service and the round trip delay.

Embodiments disclosed herein address the need in the art for enhanced block acknowledgement. In one embodiment, a receiver indicates a decoding delay for a maximum size aggregate frame in Block Ack negotiation, which may be used by a transmitter to determine to which Block Ack Request a Block Acknowledgement is responsive. In another embodiment, a Transmission Sequence Number (TSN) may be included in a Block Ack Request. The receiver includes the TSN in the corresponding Block Ack response. This allows the transmitter to determine which frames are “in transit.” The TSN may be used to identify blocks. In another embodiment, a TSN may be associated with one or more transmitted frames. While, the TSN is not transmitted with the Block Ack Request, the transmitter may determine which TSN corresponds with a Block Ack response in accordance with acknowledgements contained therein. Combinations of these techniques may be deployed. Various other aspects are also presented.

Techniques for performing open-loop rate control in a TDD communication system are described. The channel quality of a first link is estimated based on a transmission received via the first link. The channel quality of a second link is estimated based on the estimated channel quality of the first link and an asymmetric parameter. At least one rate for a data transmission via the second link is selected based on the estimated channel quality of the second link. The estimated channel quality for each link may be given by a set of SNR estimates for a set of transmission channels on that link. The asymmetric parameter may be determined based on (1) the capabilities (e.g., transmit power, receiver noise figure, and number of antennas) of the transmitting and receiving stations or (2) received SNRs for the first and second links.
摘要:
A system and method for providing wireless time division multiplexed communications in which time is divided into a plurality of frames and each frame is divided into N data bursts, which has a first multiplexer defining a channel as a series of bursts that occur periodically every N bursts once per frame; a second multiplexer defining a sub-channel as every Mth burst of said channel; and a transmitter transmitting said channel and sub-channel from a first station to a second station. A new interleaving 0246/1357 method is used by the system which is just as good as the known 0123/4567 method when ideal frequency hopping is used, and 0246/1357 has better performance when non-ideal frequency hopping or no frequency hopping is used.

Data rate determination is provided in a system where the available power fraction and available Walsh codes in each active leg are dynamically changing over time. This method adapts the rate (modulation and coding) based on the combined resource (power & code space) levels seen at each cell. The method results in maximization of the rate supportable by each cell given their resource constrained situation while meeting the constraints of target packet or frame error rate and orthogonality. Furthermore, improved fast cell selection by the mobile results due to this approach that is based on knowledge of combined resource (power & code space) levels across the cells in the active set.
摘要:
Systems and techniques are disclosed relating to wireless communications. The systems and techniques involve wireless communications wherein a process, module or communications terminal schedules communications over a frame having a plurality of time slots. The process, module or communications terminal may be used to assign information to be transmitted between two terminals to a block of the time slots within a frame, and reordering the time slot assignments within the frame using a permutation function, the permutation function being a function of frame count.

Techniques for MAC processing for efficient use of high throughput systems that may be backward compatible with various types of legacy systems are disclosed. In one aspect, a data frame is formed comprising a common portion for transmission in a format receivable by various stations, such as access points and remote stations. The data frame also comprises a dedicated portion, formatted for transmission to a specified remote station. In another aspect, the common portion is unsteered, and the dedicated portion is steered. In another aspect, an access point schedules an allocation in response to a data indication included in a common portion of a data frame transmitted from one remote station to another. In another aspect, a first station transmits a reference to a second station, which measures the reference and generates feedback therefrom.

A system and method of implementing a radio link protocol completion oriented packet data communication system. A data backlog is described with a media access control layer controller and transmitting a BEGIN protocol data unit containing a flag transmitted to a receiver. A media access control layer transaction is initiated in response to the transmitting of the BEGIN protocol data unit.

A system includes a generator component that determines a plurality of portions that comprise an entirety of error-indicating acknowledgement information. The system includes a generator component that cycles through the plurality of portions that comprise the entirety of the error-indicating acknowledgement information to send the error-indicating acknowledgement information.
