摘要:
A method and an apparatus for augmenting timing synchronization in a base station using backhaul network frequency synchronization are provided. When in a first mode an external time epoch reference synchronized with system time is used to synchronize the base station to system time. When in a second mode a network frequency reference recovered from a backhaul network link is used to maintain the timing synchronization.

An architecture, system and associated method for dynamic coordination of radio resource usage in a network environment. In one aspect, a method of processing sensory reports of one or more sensing elements in a radio network comprises receiving a sensory report from a sensing element operating in multiple radio access technologies, the sensory report including sensory data associated with multiple radio channels relative to at least one radio element; identifying the sensing element's identity and determining if the sensory report has been tagged with a code generated by a predetermined code generator; responsive to the identifying and the determining, authenticating the sensory report; and correlating the sensory report from the sensing element with at least one of one or more previous sensory reports from the sensing element and one or more previous sensory reports received from another sensing element.

Example methods and apparatus to discover network capabilities for connecting to an access network are disclosed. A disclosed example method involves sending a request to a first access network of a first network type. The request is addressed to a database and requests network connectivity information for connecting to a second access network of a second network type different from the first network type. The example method also involves receiving a response from the first access network. The response includes the network connectivity information for connecting to the second access network.

Example methods and apparatus to provide network capabilities for connecting to an access network are disclosed. A disclosed example method involves receiving a request at a first access network of a first network type. The request is addressed to a database and requests network connectivity information for connecting a wireless terminal to a second access network of a second network type different from the first network type. The example method also involves sending a response to the wireless terminal via the first access network. The response includes the network connectivity information for connecting the wireless terminal to the second access network.
摘要:
Methods of performing communication among a group of user terminals in a communication network are described herein. The method includes, a first user terminal receiving at least one stream of media data packets, and the first user terminal decoding the received media data packets. Each received media data packet includes a source user terminal indicator indicating a user terminal from which the packet data stream was transmitted; The decoding includes eliminating any media data packets that include a source user terminal indicator indicating the first user terminal before decoding the received media data packets.

An architecture, system and associated method for dynamic coordination of radio resource usage in a network environment. In one aspect, a relay communication method comprises detecting, by a first wireless mobile device, sensory data associated with multiple radio channels relative to at least one radio element in a sensing area of the first wireless mobile device. If the first wireless mobile device is out of range of a wide area cellular network, a short-range wireless communication path is established with a second wireless mobile device having a wide area cellular communication connection. The sensory data is transmitted by the first wireless mobile device to the second wireless mobile device for reporting to a network element via a wide area cellular network serving the second wireless mobile device.
摘要:
A method and system for achieving a link budget improvement in a diverse OFDM radio system by addressing the timing misalignment issue that can occur due to the differences in propagation time in signals between mobile stations and Radio Access Nodes. Timing misalignment is shared or split between the primary path to a primary Radio Access Node and a diverse path to a diverse Radio Access Node. The relative timing offsets between mobile stations are adjusted, the mobile stations are grouped into zones using a variety of different grouping techniques, and the transmission for each mobile station is scheduled, using one or more of a variety of scheduling techniques.
