A method and system are described for establishing an end-to-end route for data to traverse a wireless network, including calculating a link cost function, calculating a quantized link cost function using the calculated link cost, function, calculating a quantized cost of each of a plurality, of end-to-end routes for data to traverse the wireless network, wherein the plurality of end-to-end routes include routes between a same set of nodes in the wireless network, wherein, the quantized cost of each of the plurality of end-to-end routes for data to traverse the wireless network is performed using the quantized link cost function and selecting one of the plurality of end-to-end routes, for data to traverse the wireless network based on the quantized cost of each of the plurality of end-to-end routes. Also described is a node in a wireless network configured to participate in the establishment of a bi-directional end-to-end route for data to traverse the wireless network.

A method and apparatus for multicast communications in a multi-hop relay network are described including sending an extended request message, wherein the request message includes a multicast connection identification, multicast distribution tree information and a path identification and receiving an extended response message. Correspondingly, a method and apparatus for multicast communications in a multi-hop relay network are described including receiving an extended request message, wherein said request message includes a multicast connection identification, multicast distribution tree information and a path identification and sending an extended response message.
摘要:
A wireless endpoint is a Wireless Regional Area Network (WRAN) endpoint, such as a base station (BS) or customer premise equipment (CPE). The WRAN endpoint can transmit an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signal comprising 2048 subcarriers in a channel. The 2048 subcarriers are divided into 16 subcarrier sets, or subchannels, each subcarrier set comprising 128 subcarriers. However, upon detection of an incumbent narrowband signal in the channel, the WRAN endpoint forms a frequency usage map for transmission to another WRAN endpoint, wherein the frequency usage map identifies one, or more, of the subcarrier sets that would interfere with the incumbent narrowband signal.

The invention provides apparatus methods for avoiding channel collisions in Wireless Regional Area Networks (WRAN), A medium access controller (MAC) for switching a base station (BS) of a WRAN from a first channel to a second channel at a time t is provided. The MAC includes a switch time delay circuit for delaying said switching with respect to time t by a random delay time.

An apparatus that produces or records images, such as a camera, a video camera, a motion picture camera, a video recorder (also known as a camcorder), a digital camera, or a multifunctional cellular phone having still picture or video image capabilities, automatically attaches a location indicator to the produced or recorded images; an image reproducing apparatus, such as a video recording player, a video recorder with built-in LCD monitor, an image capable multifunctional cellular phone with image display LCD, automatically displays the attached location indicator.
摘要:
An apparatus, system and method to compensate for the proximity effects in the imaging of patterns in a photolithography process. A light exposure of a photoresist layer is effectuated in predetermined patterns through an exposure mask having light-transmissive openings in correspondence to the predetermined patterns. The exposure mask has areas densely populated with the light-transmissive openings and areas sparsely populated with the light-transmissive openings. Light is attenuated through the densely populated light-transmissive openings by a different amount than through the sparsely populated light-transmissive openings.
摘要:
A material layer on a substrate being processed, e.g. to form chips, includes one or more functional structures. In order to control pattern density during fabrication of the chip, dummy fill structures of different sizes and shapes are added to the chip at different distances from the functional structures of the material layer. In particular, the placement, size and shape of the dummy structures are determined as a function of a distance to, and density of, the functional structures of the material layer.

A method and apparatus are described including performing hop-by-hop multicasting including network coding of data packets of a portion of content, wherein network coding further includes receiving an encoded data packet of a portion of content from an upstream transmitter, determining if the received encoded data packet is innovative, storing the received encoded data packet responsive to the first determination, determining if a full rank of the encoded data packet of the portion of content has been received, determining if an acknowledgement message for the portion of the content has already been sent to the upstream transmitter responsive to the second determination, sending the acknowledgement message to the upstream transmitter responsive to the third determination and discarding the received encoded data packet responsive to the first determination.
