摘要:
Techniques for selecting a reverse link (RL) serving base station for a terminal are described. The terminal sends a transmission on the reverse link to multiple base stations in a wireless communication system. The transmission may be for signaling sent on a control channel. The terminal receives feedback (e.g., power control (PC) commands and/or erasure indications) from the multiple base stations. Each base station may generate feedback based on the control channel and/or some other transmission received from the terminal. The terminal performs reverse link power control and further selects an RL serving base station based on the received feedback. For example, the terminal may select the base station with the lowest transmit power level, the largest percentage of power down commands, or the lowest erasure rate as the RL serving base station.

The disclosed embodiments provide for methods and systems for selecting sectors for handoff in a communication system. According to one aspect, the method includes monitoring an indicia of transmit power on a plurality of RL control channels directed to a plurality of sectors, and selecting one of the sectors as a candidate for a RL handoff. The disclosed embodiments also provide for methods and systems for indicating a selected serving sector for handoff in a communication system. According to one aspect, the method includes sending a first signal to a first sector to indicate the first sector as a serving sector for a forward-link handoff, and sending a second signal to a second sector to indicate the second sector as a serving sector for a reverse-link handoff.

摘要:
Method and apparatus for transmission of information in multiple access communication system is claim. Information using incremental redundancy is transmitted. A determination is made as to whether reverse link performance drops below a predetermined threshold. Determination of reverse link performance may be done in variety of ways, including use of a filter percentage of ACK erasures, measured error rates on the reverse link control channel, reverse link data channel error rates, and other methods. Upon determination of channel degradation, the access point can decide whether to ignore messages sent from the access terminal to instruct the access terminal to cease transmission.

Techniques for utilizing a capacity-based effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to improve wireless communication are described herein. In an embodiment, a mobile terminal can determine the effective SNR from a forward link channel using pilot/data symbols. The mobile terminal can convey the effective SNR to a base station. In order to minimize transmission overhead, the mobile terminal can quantize the effective SNR prior to transmitting it to the base station. In another embodiment, the base station can determine the effective SNR from a reverse link. The base station can utilize the effective SNR to facilitate scheduling transmissions from the mobile terminal, transmitting power control commands to the mobile terminal, and determining a supporting data rate for the mobile terminal, for example. Suitable SNRs include constrained, unconstrained, average, and/or approximated effective SNRs. In addition, various filters, such as an averaging filter, can be utilized to further process the effective SNR.

Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate dynamically supplementing or decrementing resource assignments to mobile devices in a wireless network environment without requiring transmission of replacement assignments. Supplemental assignments can be generated based on information related to mobile device need and resource availability. Moreover, resource assignments can be persisted for a mobile device.
摘要:
Techniques are provided to support fast frequency hopping with a code division multiplexed (CDM) pilot in a multi-carrier communication system (e.g., an OFDMA system). Each transmitter (e.g., each terminal) in the system transmits a wideband pilot on all subbands to allow a receiver (e.g., a base station) to estimate the entire channel response at the same time. The wideband pilot for each transmitter may be generated using direct sequence spread spectrum processing and based on a pseudo-random number (PN) code assigned to that transmitter. This allows the receiver to individually identify and recover multiple wideband pilots transmitted concurrently by multiple transmitters. For a time division multiplexed (TDM)/CDM pilot transmission scheme, each transmitter transmits the wideband pilot in bursts. For a continuous CDM pilot transmission scheme, each transmitter continuously transmits the wideband pilot, albeit at a low transmit power level. Any frequency hopping rate may be supported without impacting pilot overhead.
