摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide methods, systems, and devices that coordinate access to a common medium between two networks. Typically, a gateway is employed that requests resources from a home central coordinator and/or access coordinator. If resources are not available from the home central coordinator and the access coordinator, a neighbor network protocol is performed to obtain additional resources.
摘要:
The embodiments of the present invention provide a mechanism to synchronize centralized networks. Each centralized network includes a central coordinator controlling and managing network activities. The embodiments provide a way of allocating beacon slots, such that one of the beacon slots is synchronized to the alternating current line cycle and thus functions as a master timing sequence. In some embodiments, methods, devices, and systems are provided for detecting transmissions of non-coordinating networks.

Methods and systems for continual self-monitoring of respiratory health and components for use therewith. The present methods and systems and their related components improve the standard of core in respiratory health self-monitoring by providing continual and unobtrusive monitoring that accounts for environmental, physiological and patient background information, and is capable of yielding a complex array of respiratory health-preserving responses. In some embodiments, the present methods and systems leverage ubiquitous handheld electronic devices [e.g. cell phones and personal data assistants (PDA)] for respiratory health self-monitoring.
摘要:
Aspects of the present invention relate to distributed network coordination and administration. Some aspects relate to network coordination and management using an interfering network list that may be maintained by a network controlling authority. Some aspects relate to allocation of specific bandwidth segments by a network controlling authority to avoid network collisions and improve network efficiency.

An approach for minimizing queueing delay of packets is disclosed. M number of queues are configured to store packets. A memory stores a search order table that has table entries corresponding to the M queues. Specifically, the table entries store values that correspond to relative positions of the M queues and that are selected based upon a transmission constraint of the communication system. A scheduler is coupled to the memory and is configured to schedule transmission of the packets stored in the M queues based upon the search order table. According to one embodiment of the present invention, this queueing mechanism is applied in a satellite communication system with transmission constraints to the downlink cells.
