A system and method for synchronized and coordinated beam switching and scheduling in a wireless communications system is provided. A method for controller operation includes determining a beam cycle pattern, sharing the beam cycle pattern with neighboring controllers, receiving beam information from a communications device, generating scheduling information from the beam cycle pattern and beam cycle patterns from other controllers, receiving a transmission intended for the communications device, and causing the transmission to be transmitted to the communications device. The beam cycle pattern includes a list of beam patterns transmitted by the controller, and the transmission is transmitted using the scheduling information and the received beam information.

Techniques are provided to assign radio resources with one of two or more types of assignments on a frame-by-frame basis. The first type of assignment uses subcarriers that are contiguous in both time and frequency, and the second type of assignment uses subcarriers that are disjoint and equally-spaced in frequency. The types of resource assignments can be multiplexed in a frame by dividing the frame into two zones, each zone of a different type. The demarcation between the first and second zones is implicitly indicated by the assignment messages for the mobile stations. Based on the loading conditions, the base station selects one of two demarcation strategies to use and communicates the selection implicitly by using one assignment message for a mobile station.

Managing radio resources and power for OFDMA uplinks is disclosed in which a threshold transmission rate for the reverse link is used by base stations to compare against the achievable reverse link transmission rate of a particular AT within the sector serviced by the base station. When the calculated rate is higher than the threshold rate, the base station allocates maximum power to the AT. Otherwise, when the calculated rate is lower than the threshold rate, zero power is allocated to the AT.

A method of broadcasting data is disclosed. A plurality of broadcast data streams are received and divided into a plurality of frames. Each frame includes data from only one of the broadcast data streams. The frames can then be broadcast wirelessly.

A method of determining a target load for a reverse link channel in a CDMA base station, comprises determining a target frame error rate for a base station and computing the target load as a function of the target frame error rate and a measured frame error rate.

Congestion control provides congestion control for one or more shared resources in a wireless communication network. In one exemplary embodiment, a congestion controller manages congestion of shared packet data channels by under-serving selected ones of the data connections sharing the packet data channel. Such selective under-serving may be effected by biasing scheduling of service on the packet data channel toward maximum throughput scheduling such that connections associated with poor radio conditions are naturally under-served. Further, the controller may manage congestion of other shared resources, such as shared transmit power resources, wherein congestion of the shared power resource is managed by under-allocating transmit power to selected ones of the connections. Congestion is sensed, for example, by monitoring transmit buffer occupancy levels, and/or reserve power levels. In either case, congestion relief may be amplified where operation of the controller “triggers” flow control on the intentionally under-served ones of the active data connections.

System and method for dynamic resource allocation in wireless communications networks. A method for dynamically allocating resources of a contention channel comprises computing an expected delay for a transmission made by a user over the contention channel, determining a target probability of collision from the expected delay, computing an allocation of resources of the contention channel using the target probability of collision, and allocating resources of the contention channel using the computed allocation of resources.

A system and method of downlink resource allocation to both Distributed Resource Channel (DRCH) and Localized Resource Channel (LRCH) users in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) network. A utility function is provided for each LRCH and DRCH user, wherein the utility function is concave and non-decreasing; a resource allocation objective is provided using the utility function of each LRCH and DRCH user; and resources are allocated to the LRCH and DRCH users such that the resource allocation objective is met.

A method and apparatus of signaling radio resource allocation in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method comprises: dividing the radio resource into units of a first type of assignment and of a second type; using the first type of assignment units for the first type of assignment; using the second type of assignment units for the second type of assignment; multiplexing the first type and the second type of assignments in the same frame; indicating the assignment for each of a plurality of mobile stations by a base station; determining the multiplexing mode by the base station; and communicating the multiplexing mode to each of the plurality of mobile stations by the base station.
