摘要:
An uncontrolled spatial multiple access system and method facilitating spatial multiple access for multiple devices in a wireless local-area network (WLAN). Embodiments of the system and method increase throughput of the wireless network by facilitating concurrent encoded frame transmission. Decoding of the quasi-overlapped frames is achieved using a chain decoding technique that takes data streams (or signals) containing the quasi-overlapping encoded frames and isolates each encoded frame so that the frame can be decoded. Quasi-overlapped frames means that the frames are overlapped in the body of the frame but not at the preamble (or headers) of the frames. Embodiments of the chain decoding also use interference nullifying and interference cancellation to enable concurrent quasi-overlapping transmission. A carrier counting multiple access technique of embodiments of the system and method allow wireless networks to retain their asynchronous nature while supporting spatial multiple access and maintain backwards compatibility with the IEEE 802.11 standard.
摘要:
Techniques and systems that improve throughput between a pair of nodes by using two multi-hop paths of one-way flows regardless of the one-way flows interfering with each other are described herein. These techniques enable nearly full-rate data flow through frame transmissions, even though these frame transmissions can interfere with substantially concurrent relay transmissions. In some implementations, relays on the two paths forward mixed frame signals to the next hop without trying to decode the mixed frame signals of interfered frames. The destination successfully recovers the useful information from the mixed frame signals by canceling out interference based on previously received frames.

摘要:
A fine-grained channel access system and method to facilitate fine-grained channel access in a high-data rate wide-band wireless local-area network (WLAN). Embodiments of the system and method divide an entire wireless channel into proper size subchannels commensurate with the physical layer data rate and typical frame size. Once the subchannels are defined, each node on the WLAN contends independently for each of the fine-grained subchannels. A first orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) technique is used to signal an access point on the WLAN that the node desires one or more of the subchannels. A second OFDM technique (which is different from the first OFDM technique) is used for data transmission. Sometimes there is contention between nodes that want the same subchannel. The access point resolves any contention between the nodes using a frequency domain contention technique that includes a frequency domain backoff technique.

An analysis application is adapted to be executed on a computing device for collecting data for analysis from a software-defined radio implemented on the same computing device or on a separate computing device for testing measurement and analysis of wireless standards, radio configurations, communication protocols and other radio technologies.
摘要:
Embodiments include processes, systems, and devices for reshaping virtual baseband signals for transmission on non-contiguous and variable portions of a physical baseband, such as a white space frequency band. In the transmission path, a spectrum virtualization layer maps a plurality of transmission components associated with a transmission symbol produced by a physical layer protocol to sub-carriers of the allocated physical frequency band. The spectrum virtualization layer then outputs a physical transmission symbol composed of time-domain samples derived from the mapped frequency components and a cyclic prefix. In the receive path, a time-domain symbol received on the physical baseband is reshaped and equalized by the virtual spectrum layer in order to recompose a time-domain samples of a transmission stream in the virtual baseband.
