    摘要: Non-coherent modulation is used to communicate coding information via pilot signals using a first subset of resources, and coherent modulation is used to generate data signals. This allows for a stronger global code while keeping individual signaling complexity low. First and second communications devices communicate information using a set of communications resources. By performing non-coherent demodulation on pilot signals received on a first subset of the set of communications resources coding information is recovered. First and second channel estimates are generated from the pilot signals received on the first subset of the communications resources. Coherent demodulation is performed on data signals received on a second subset of the set of communications resources using the first and second channel estimates and the coding information to recover information communicated by the first communications device and to recover separate information communicated by the second communications device.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus related to scheduling decisions of a peer to peer communications device for transmission into traffic intervals are described. A first peer to peer communications device maintains a set of information which allows it to base a scheduling decision for a current traffic interval upon prior performance in a prior traffic interval in which users of other connections were also operating. In some embodiments, the set of information includes a list of device or connection identifiers which the first peer to peer communications device has previously determined to have corresponded to a prior traffic interval in which the first peer to peer device had a low determined data rate. In some embodiments, the set of information includes: (i) a list of device or connection identifiers corresponding to prior traffic intervals and (ii) first peer to peer device data rate information associated with the prior traffic intervals

    摘要: Methods and apparatus related to scheduling traffic slots in a wireless communications system, e.g., an ad hoc peer to peer communications network are described. An implemented timing structure includes multiple traffic transmission slots and multiple request blocks with different priorities corresponding to a traffic transmission slot. A wireless terminal determines its own block priority level. If a wireless terminal's determined block priority level is the highest block priority level the wireless terminal is allowed to transmit a traffic transmission request in the highest traffic transmission request block; otherwise, the wireless terminal is restricted from transmitting a traffic transmission request in the highest priority request block. A wireless terminal monitors for request and/or request response activity corresponding to other connections high priority block signaling, and uses the collected information to determine its own block priority.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus relating to scheduling of air link resources, e.g., traffic segments, in wireless communications are described. Various described methods and apparatus are well suited to wireless peer to peer networks in which traffic scheduling is decentralized, e.g. an ad hoc peer to peer network. A first wireless terminal receives a transmission request and quality of service information from a second wireless terminal corresponding to a connection. The first wireless terminal decides not to receiver yield, determines a request response transmission power level as a function of the received quality of service information, and transmits, at the determined power level, a generated request response signal. By controllably adjusting the transmission power level of a request response, transmitter yielding decisions of lower priority links are impacted, since lower priority links measure and use received power level information corresponding to request responses of higher priority links in their transmitter yielding decisions.

    摘要: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate transmitting beacon symbols of a beacon message such that a sequence of symbols can satisfy a linear constraint over a field where the field elements can be identified with carriers. In this regard, a coding scheme can be applied to a beacon message; the coding scheme can produce a plurality of beacon symbols to transmit on given subcarriers. A receiving device of the beacon symbols can decode a beacon message by receiving less than the total number of symbols in a beacon message and determining the remaining symbol subcarriers based on the linear constraint. Thus, more efficient decoding of beacons is facilitated as well as resolving beacon ambiguity by figuring out which symbols satisfy linear constraints for the symbols, and resolving time and frequency shift by detecting an offset that would result in satisfaction of the linear constraint.
