摘要:
A method for transmitting packets from a source node to a destination node via relay nodes of a wireless network. Packets are transmitted from the source node, along a route of relays nodes, to the destination node in a wireless network. Energy of the packets is accumulated only in the destination node by storing multiple versions of the packet. The packets are decoded in the destination node using the accumulated energy.

A method switches a mobile station (MS) from a current group to a new group in a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) including a base station (BS). The BS operates in full duplex mode and the MS operates in half-duplex mode, such that the WiMAX network operates in semi-duplex mode. The MS receives from the BS, while the MS is in the current group, a group switching request in a downlink (DL) sub-frame. The MS also receives structural information regarding frames of the new group. The MS switches from the current group to the new group after receiving the structural information.

A method transmits an L bit packet in a relay network including a source node, a relay node and a destination node. The source node partitions the packet into first fragment of βL bits and a second fragment of (1−β) bits. The first fragment is transmitted from the source node to the relay node at a first data rate during a first phase. The second fragment is transmitted from the source node to the destination node at a second data rate during a second phase while the first fragment is retransmitted from the relay node to the destination node at a third data rate.

The embodiments of the invention provide an adaptive method for base station cooperation in a wireless network. In a multi-user communications network that includes base stations, and in which each base station is associated with a cell, and in which each cell includes one or more mobile stations, each base station determines pre-coding matrices for full-cooperation, semi-cooperation and non-cooperation. Each base stations also determines a sum rate SRfull for full-cooperation, a sum rate SRsemi for semi-cooperation, and a sum rate SRnon for non-cooperation. Then, each base station selects the pre-coding for full-cooperation, the pre-coding matrices for semi cooperation, or the pre-coding matrices for non cooperation. Each base station transmits signals according to the selected pre-coding matrices.

A network includes a master node (master) and a set of slave nodes (slaves). The network uses orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and time division multiple access (TDMA) symbols on sub-carriers. During a first downlink transmission from the master to the set of slaves using downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a broadcast polling packet including data packets for each slave and sub-carrier assignments for the slaves is broadcast. Each slave transmits simultaneously to the master using uplinks and the assigned sub-carriers, a first response packet after receiving the broadcast polling packet. The master then broadcasts using the downlinks and all of the sub-carriers, a group acknowledgement packet, wherein the broadcast polling packet, the response packet, and the group acknowledgement packet include one superframe in one communication cycle, and wherein the broadcasting on the downlinks and the transmitting on the uplinks are disjoint in time.
摘要:
A system and method for communicating information in a wireless cooperative relay network of nodes, the nodes including a source, a set of relays, and a destination. The source broadcasts a code word encoded as a data stream using a rateless code. The relays receive the data stream, decode the data stream to recover the code word, and reencode and transmit the recovered code word as the data stream with the rateless code. The destination receives and decodes the reencoded data streams to recover the code word.

A method selects antennas in a multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) wireless local area network (WLAN) that includes a plurality of stations, and each station includes a set of antennas. Plural consecutive packets, received at a station, include plural consecutive sounding packets. Each sounding packet corresponds to a different subset of the set of antennas, and at least one of the plural consecutive packets includes a high throughput (HT) control field including a signal to initiate antenna selection and a number N indicative of a number of sounding packets which follow the at least one packet including the HT control field and which are to be used for antenna selection. A channel matrix is estimated based on a characteristic of the channel as indicated by the received N sounding packets, and a subset of antennas is selected according to the channel matrix. Station and computer program product embodiments include similar features.

A method selects antennas in an OFDMA wireless network including a base station and a mobile station. The mobile station measures a channel state of a downlink in a downlink subframe using different subsets of available antennas, and selects a subset of receive antennas for downlink reception based on the channel states between the base station and the different subsets of antennas at the mobile station. The base station measures the channel state in an uplink using an uplink subframe received in the base station from the mobile station, and selects a subset of transmit antennas for mobile station's uplink transmission based on the channel states between the base station and different subset of antennas at the mobile station.
