摘要： A method and apparatus for selecting one of a plurality of multi-band access points (APs) to associate with a multi-band wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) are disclosed. The multi-band APs broadcast frequency band information regarding multiple frequency bands on which the multi-band AP is configured to operate. The multi-band WTRU selects a particular multi-band AP to associate with and a frequency band to use to communicate with the selected multi-band AP based on the frequency band information. If the multi-band WTRU receives frequency band information from the selected multi-band AP which indicates that a characteristic, (e.g., throughput, path loss, load, capacity, backhaul), of the selected frequency band is unacceptable, the multi-band WTRU determines whether to disassociate with the selected multi-band AP or to continue to associate with the selected multi-band AP via a different frequency band.

摘要： A method for addressing groups of stations in a wireless communication system begins by assigning the stations in the system into a number of groups. A group identifier is signaled to each station and the group identifier is indicated in a frame for each group that has data in the frame. The addressing method can be applied to power savings for the station, wherein the station enters a power saving mode if the group identifier for the station is not present in the frame.

摘要： A method and system for enhancing the capabilities of wireless local area network (WLAN) control frames in general, and particularly block acknowledgement (ACK) frames, such as block ACK request (BAR) frames and block ACK response (BA) frames are disclosed. Furthermore, the functionalities these frames provide are extended by indicating the types of such functionalities within the BAR or BA frame formats. This enables the BAR or BA frames to be used more flexibly and on an as-needed basis, without the restriction of simultaneously providing all functionalities. The BAR/BA setup and negotiation procedure is also modified to provide more flexibility. In another embodiment, request to send (RTS) frames or clear to send (CTS) frames are used for the purpose of granting reverse direction traffic, and may be aggregated with data frames.

摘要： Method and apparatus employed by wireless network components such as access points (APs) for controlling transmitting power level of individual wireless transmitter/receiver units (WTRUs) by establishing a power transmit level based on prior transmit and receiving transmission and reception statistics such as signal to noise ratio (SNR), bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER) and/or the like. Power transmit level information is preferably communicated through any one of a clear to send (CTS), request to send (RTS), data and acknowledge (ACK) frame. Alternatively the power control information may be inserted into a beacon frame or an individual control frame specifically designated for power control. The WTRUs preferably have battery level sensors and adjust power control level responsive to a sensed battery level. Alternatively, the APs and WTRUs may reverse roles and the WTRUs may provide power transmit level information to an AP to facilitate transmissions by the AP.

摘要： A method and system for providing control information for supporting high speed downlink and high speed uplink packet access are disclosed. A Node-B assigns at least one downlink control channel and at least one uplink control channel to a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The downlink control channel and the uplink control channel are provided to carry control information for both the downlink and the uplink. Conventional control channels for downlink and uplink are combined into a reduced set of control channels for uplink and downlink. The Node-B and the WTRU communicate control information via the downlink control channel and the uplink control channel. The WTRU receives downlink data and transmits uplink data, and the Node-B receives uplink data and transmits downlink data based on the control information transmitted via the downlink control channel and the uplink control channel.

摘要： Systems and methods for integrating bandwidth management (BWM) equipment into a network in order to manage the use of bandwidth over multiple radio access technologies (RATs) relating to communications between a wireless transmit receive unit and a mobile core network (MCN). When integrating itself into the network, a BWM server may be placed between a MCN and an femto access point. In order for WTRUs to communicate with the MCN through the femto access point and a BWM server, a BWM server may need deep packet inspection capabilities.

摘要： A method and apparatus for dynamically configuring a memory for hybrid automatic repeat request (H-ARQ) processes in a receiving node to permit a more flexible H-ARQ memory configuration and improve the performance of H-ARQ processes. An H-ARQ memory in the receiving node is reserved for a plurality of H-ARQ processes. A transmitting node dynamically configures the H-ARQ memory in the receiving node for each H-ARQ transmission so that the memory requirement for a plurality of H-ARQ processes exceeds the H-ARQ memory capacity. If there is insufficient H-ARQ memory available to support H-ARQ transmissions, only a subset of the plurality of H-ARQ processes may be activated at a time. When there is insufficient H-ARQ memory for processing H-ARQ transmissions, a negative acknowledgement (NACK), an acknowledgement (ACK), nothing, and/or information indicating the reason for a failed transmission may be transmitted to a transmitting node.
