摘要:
The invention concerns a method of processing a plurality of data packets in a packet switched communication network comprising at least one switching device (1) as well as a corresponding switching device. The switching device (1) comprises two or more sub-engines (21, . . . , 29). A control unit (7) of the at least one switching device (1) receives a data packet comprising a header (10) of a communication packet exchanged via the communication network.

A method of increasing the accuracy of geographical information of a mobile station of a radio communication system is described. The geographical information of the mobile station is evaluated without using a GPS receiver. Stored positions of other mobile stations using GPS receivers, are used to adapt the geographical information.
摘要:
A process is proposed for determining the radio reception direction on the downlink at a radio base station location, comprising a plurality of radio coverage areas, in a mobile communications network, in which in each area on the downlink radio signals are radiated by means of a transmitting antenna for reception by at least one mobile communications terminal. For the determination of the radio reception direction, at least the reception levels of the radio signals radiated by a first and a second of the transmitting antennae are measured by the relevant mobile communications terminal. From the two measured reception levels, a ratio value is formed which is independent of the prevailing radio propagation conditions, and this ratio value is used to effect an estimation of azimuthal angles for the radio reception direction to be determined. The invention can thus be implemented in any individual radio base station location, it being unnecessary for there to be contact with a plurality of radio base stations. The calculation of a ratio value serves to eliminate influences which can arise from changing radio propagation conditions. In this way a reliable estimation of the azimuthal angles and determination of the radio reception direction is possible. This is independent of the prevailing radio propagation conditions.

摘要:
To assign a carrier frequency to different mobile stations in a conventional Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA) radio system, the stations are differentiated according to the direction in space from which they transmit radio signals to a base station. In addition, the distances between the base station and the mobile stations are compared. To prevent interference at the receiving site (base station BTS), according to the invention a carrier frequency (f) is assigned to the different mobile stations (MS1 to MS3) only if the directions in space (.THETA.1 to .THETA.3) are sufficiently different and the receive levels (P1 to P3) of the radio signals are sufficiently equal. To that end, each mobile station (MS1 to MS3) is assigned a guard area, which encompasses at least a preselected solid angle (lobe width w) and at most a preselected level space (dynamic range S). Any further mobile station wanting a radio link with the base station on the same carrier frequency (f) must be located in a permissible zone (Z) between the guard areas, which comprises a level range (zP) that is common to all preceding mobile stations. A further guard area is defined with each further connection, and the permissible zone (Z) is determined anew. The full capacity of the carrier frequency (f) is only attained when the permissible zone (Z) becomes so small that it no longer comprises sufficient space for the solid angle (w).

摘要:
In a known diversity transmission method, two signals with different identifications are transmitted via two spaced antennas. To be able to apply the diversity principle to more than two antennas, a novel method and a novel base station are proposed. The novel base station comprises two transmitting apparatuses and an assignment apparatus connected thereto which establish connections between each of the two transmitting apparatuses and each of the antennas. The base station further comprises a computing and control apparatus that is connected to the assignment apparatus, which divides the antennas into a first antenna group and a second antenna group, and controls the switching of the connections in such a way that the first antenna group is connected to the first transmitting apparatus, and the second antenna group to the second transmitting apparatus. By several different divisions of the antennas into a first antenna group and a second antenna group, the amplitude and phase differences (phi) existing between the signals at the receiver can be compensated for even if more than two antennas are used. It is also possible to determine that grouping of the antennas with which the highest diversity gain is achieved.

The present invention relates to an FDD Inband backhauling method for establishing a wireless transmission from at least one access base station to a master base station in a digital cellular communication system, the access base station coupled to at least a mobile station, the access base station coupled to a relay base station, the relay base station coupled to the master base station, the master base station coupled to a core network. The method comprises the steps of: receiving a first signal (s1) by the access base station from the mobile station using a first frequency band (f1); transforming the first frequency band (f1) of the first signal (s1) into the second frequency band (f2) by the access base station; and transmitting the first signal (s1) from the access base station to the relay base station using the second frequency band (f2). The method further comprises the steps of: transforming the second frequency band (f2) of the first signal (s1) into the first frequency band (f1) by the relay base station; and transmitting the first signal (s1) from the relay base station to the master base station using the first frequency band (f1).
摘要:
The determination of the direction of arrival of a radio signal by an antenna array connected to a base station of a radiocommunications system, particularly of an SDMA (Space Division Multiple Access) mobile radio system, is complicated by multipath. A method is known which uses the so-called ESPRIT algorithm and which is especially suited for a reliable estimation of direction, since the receive level (Sm) and the phase position (.phi.m) are measured for each radiating element and entered in a symmetrical matrix (A) in order to then determine the direction of arrival by eigenvalue decomposition.A simpler and faster method (100) is proposed which involves computing the eigenvector (Wn) corresponding to the dominant eigenvalue (.lambda.1) of this matrix (A), which indicates the direction of arrival (DOA) of the strongest radio signal (S) (steps 130 and 140). The computationally intensive eigenvalue decomposition is eliminated.
