摘要： A multiplexer function maintains a transmission table of all link control frames sent to a physical layer for transmission to a receiver. The transmission table includes a list of frames from various link control entities in the order in which they were multiplexed together to form a stream of frames. At the receiver, when a frame is detected that is in error, the physical layer sends an indication to its associated demultiplexer function, which sets a timer. When the timer expires, the demultiplexer function issues a message, such as a negative acknowledgement message, directly to the sender via the physical layer. The message includes information about the link control frames preceding and following the errant frame. The identified frames may be associated with different link control entities, and are preferably provided in the order in which they were received. The multiplexer function compares the identified frames in the message to the list of frames in the transmission table to identify the errant frame or frames and operates to effect retransmission of the errant frame.

摘要： The present invention relates to a link control automatic repeat request (ARQ) operation in a wireless communication environment. When a terminal sends an original request for communication resources, the request includes not only payload size, but preferably quality of service parameters associated with the data to be transmitted. During uplink communications, the base station performs the link control based ARQ for lost or corrupt packets. When lost or corrupt packets are identified, a link control entity at the base station determines the appropriate retransmission parameters and contacts the uplink scheduler, if necessary, to obtain the corresponding communication resources for retransmission. The additional communication resources for retransmission are provided in a message, such as a negative acknowledgement message, which is sent to the mobile terminal to trigger retransmission of the lost or corrupted data.

摘要： A method and apparatus for assigning a time slotted code division multiple access carrier for wireless reverse link communication between a device and a base station. One or more performance characteristics corresponding to the device are determined. A code division multiple access spreading code is assigned based on the determined performance characteristics. A time slot for communication with the base station is assigned based on the assigned spreading code. According to one aspect, the assigned spreading code corresponds to one of an SCDMA code and an ACDMA code such that a time slot corresponding to an SCDMA code provides a time slot in which all devices are preferably in time-aligned orthogonal communication with the base station. An increase in channel gain and an increase in channel capacity result as compared with a system where time slots support mixed ACDMA and SCDMA codes.

摘要： The present invention uses a portion of an orthogonal spreading code space in a CDMA spectrum for uplink from a user element to a base station. By assigning the user elements one or more codes, which are orthogonal to those used to spread data, to use for uplink , the present invention significantly reduces interference between channels, and between the data channels and the channels, while supporting additional capacity. The codes may be individually assigned to user elements or assigned to groups of user elements. Further, different length codes may be assigned to the user elements to support different rates depending on Quality of Service (QoS) requirements.

摘要： The present invention keeps track of channel change indicia associated with wireless communications with mobile terminals, and bases the scheduling of data in time slots of a scheduling period on the channel change indicia. The channel change indicia may be derived from any information that bears on the rate at which channel conditions are likely to change, such as the velocity the mobile terminals are traveling or actual channel condition measurements. Preferably, mobile terminals associated with intermediate values for the channel change indicia are given priority, and thus, scheduled for transmission before those with lower and higher values. The invention is applicable to uplink and downlink communications, and is particularly beneficial when implemented in uplink and downlink schedulers in a base station.

摘要： The present invention provides a fast and efficient retransmission technique, which allows a link control layer to request retransmission of frames upon receiving information from an underlying physical layer that an unsuccessful attempt to transmit data was detected. In general, a failed attempt to transmit a frame is detected at a physical layer of a receiver. In response, the physical layer of the receiver sends a message to a link control layer of the receiver to indicate the failed attempt to transmit a frame was detected. Upon receipt of the message, the link control layer sends a retransmission message to a corresponding link control layer of a sender. The retransmission message is configured to cause the sender to retransmit the unrecoverable data associated with the corrupted frame.

摘要： Systems, apparatus and methods can be implemented for handling physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmissions. A user equipment (UE) can decode, on a physical hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) indicator channel (PHICH), a negative acknowledgement (NACK) associated with an HARQ process. The UE can also receive, from a base station, an uplink grant without an associated transport block. The decoded NACK and the received uplink grant can trigger a respective transmission during a PUSCH transmission opportunity. The UE can then perform, during the PUSCH transmission opportunity, one of transmission of a PUSCH transmission associated with the HARQ process, transmission of control information based on the received uplink grant, or disregarding the decoded NACK and the received uplink grant.
