摘要:
A subscriber management system for a communication system having a radio access network coupled to by a gateway node to a packet switched network. The system consolidates three prior art subscriber management system components, a DPI device, a QoS Policy Manager 40, and an Application Manager 28, into a DPI platform. The system also relocates functions to the DPI platform that were previously provided by the gateway node in prior art networks. Specifically, an Accounting Client 34, a Hotlining function 36, and a QoS SFA function 44 are located to the DPI platform. By consolidating network components and relocating functions to the DPI platform, the number of control interfaces in the network can be reduced. Further, network components produced by different vendors may be integrated more easily. A method of implementing hotlining in the system is also provided.

摘要:
Systems and methods for detecting and mitigating interference between from a wireless time division duplex (TDD) communications device and a wireless frequency division duplex (FDD) communications device includes processing quality-indicator reports received from the FDD device to determine if the FDD device has experienced interference from the TDD device. Such interference may be mitigated by adjusting a downlink configuration of the FDD base station in communication with the FDD device. To detect and mitigate interference from an FDD device to a TDD device, it is determined if a monitored value of an operational parameter of the FDD device is within a fixed range of a maximum value of the operational parameter, and if so, a specific time interval or frequency of the FDD device is assigned for communication purposes. Similar interference detection and mitigation techniques may also be used for interference scenarios between two TDD systems including TDD devices.
摘要:
Systems and methods for detecting and mitigating interference between from a first wireless time division duplex (TDD) communications device and a second wireless TDD communications device includes processing quality-indicator reports received from the first TDD device to determine if reception at the first TDD device has experienced interference from the second TDD device. Such interference at the first TDD device may indicate that the first TDD device may also cause interference to reception at the second TDD device. Accordingly, to mitigate the possible interference from the first TDD device, an uplink configuration of the first TDD base station may be adjusted. The adjustment of the uplink configuration may include configuring reception of data packets at the first TDD base station from the first TDD device in accordance with an interference-free time interval, an unprotected time interval, or a specific portion of an associated frequency band.
摘要:
A legacy spectrum allocation results in inefficient use of the spectrum now allocated to broadband services. A broadband wireless OFDMA communication system allocates channels with overlap between adjacent channels to make more efficient use of the allocated spectrum. Guard tones are eliminated to reduce channel bandwidth requirements leaving a smaller bandwidth overlap. Interference mitigation procedures are used to reduce adjacent channel interference.

摘要:
A base station includes multiple transmitter-receiver elements coupled to multiple antennas. The activation of additional baseband signal processing resources, dynamically mapped via a programmable digital interface module to a subset of the original transmitter-receiver sets in the base station to double capacity of the system or facilitate simultaneous operation of multiple air interface technologies with minimal or no hardware modifications to the base station or cell site. With a base station having four transmitter-receivers, the system transmits and receives the same signal on all transmitter-receivers to provide a 4×2 downlink and a 1×4 uplink. The system can be reconfigured by splitting the transmitter-receiver sets into two logically separate units. An additional base station modem resource is activated to double the capacity of the radio system or to implement a different communication protocol allowing transition between technologies.
摘要:
A cellular network having a plurality of mobile stations and a plurality of cells. Each cell is configured to provide communication services to the plurality of mobile stations using at least two overlapping channels. Each cell includes a base station configured to provide communication services using at least four channels, which include the overlapping channels, within a service area divided into three or four sectors. The service area may be hexagonal or square shaped. A first pair of the four channels has an overlapping portion. A second pair of the four channels, the channels of the second pair being different channels than those of the first pair, may also have an overlapping portion. The four channels may each comprise a portion of an Educational Broadband Service/Broadcast Radio Services band. The first and second pairs of channels may be nonadjacent to one another.
