摘要： Frequencies are allocated in a wireless network, wherein the network includes a set of macrocells and a set of femtocells, and wherein each macrocell includes a base station (BS) and each femtocell includes a femtocell base station. A frequency spectrum is assigned to the network. The frequency spectrum is partitioned into bands of frequencies. The bands of frequencies are allocated to the set of BS for communicating with user equipments (UE) in the set of macro cells, and guard bands of frequencies, within which no data are transmitted between the UE and the macro cell BS. The guard bands are assigned to the set of femtocell base station for communicating with UE in the set of femtocells.

摘要： Soft decision decoding of a codeword of a Reed-Muller (RM) code by selecting an optimal decomposition variable i using a likelihood calculation. A code RM(r, m) is expressed as {(u, uv)|uεRM(r, m−1) and vεRM(r−1, m−1)}, where uv denotes a component-wise multiplication of u and v, and (u, uv)=(r1, r2). A receive codeword is separated into r1=u and r2=uv based on the optimal decomposition variable, and r2 is decoded according to the optimal decomposition variable, using a RM(r−1, m−1) decoder to obtain a decoded v and a first set of decoded bits. The decoded v is combined with r1 using (r1+r2v)/2, and (r1+r2v)/2 is decoded using a RM(r, m−1) decoder to obtain a decoded u and a second set of decoded bits.

摘要： A method estimates a wireless channel at a receiver. The signal is transmitted using narrowband orthogonal frequency division demultiplexing (OFDM) and frequency subcarriers, and the signal includes a set of data tones and a set of pilot tones. The channel and pilot tone interference are estimated based on all the pilot tones extracted from the signal and a channel model. The set of data are equalized based on the channel estimate. Data interference is detected according to the pilot interference and the equalized data tones. Subcarrier interference-to-noise ratios are determined based on the data interference. Signal strengths of the data tones are determined based on the equalized data tones, log-likelihood ratios of bits represented by the data tones are determined based on the subcarrier interference-to-noise ratios and the signal strength of the data tones.

摘要： A transmitter encodes an input bitstream using space-time trellis coding (STTC). The encoder includes a serial to parallel convertor to produce a first and second output bitstreams. First and second three bit shift registers are connected to produce first and second output bitstreams. A multiplier applies a code generating weight to each bit of the shift registers to encode the bitstreams. A first switch is connected between a last bit of the first shift register and a first bit of the second shift register. A second switch is connected between the second output and the first bit of the second shift register. The first set of encoded bit streams and the second set of encoded bitstreams are combined and mapped to a frequency domain.

摘要： Beams are used to communicate in a wireless network including mobile and stationary receivers. The network operates according to the IEEE 802.11p in wireless access to vehicular environments (WAVE). A direction from the mobile transceiver to the stationary receiver is predicted using geographic information available to the mobile transceiver. A set of signals are received in the mobile transceiver from the stationary transceiver, wherein the signals are received by an array of antennas, and wherein the signals are received using a set of beams, and wherein each beam is approximately directed at the stationary receiver. A signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is measured for each beam, and the beam with an optimal SNR is selected as an optimal beam for communicating data between the mobile transceiver and the stationary transceiver.

摘要： A transmitter transmits data having a set of two or more priorities on subcarriers using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. The transmitter includes a media access (MAC) layer, wherein the MAC layer further includes a queue for storing data at each priority, a rate control block connected to each queue, and a physical (PHY) layer. The PHY layer further includes a channel coder for each priority, wherein each channel coder is connected to the corresponding queue to receive data, and to the rate control block to send coding information.

摘要： A method performs handover of a mobile station (MS from a current base station (BSC) connected to a target base station (BST) via a backbone in a Worldwide interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) mobile communication network. The MS, before handover, transmits a Connection Identifier Request (CID-REQ) to the BST via the BSC, and receiving a Connection Identifier Response (CID-RSP) from the BST via the BSC. The MS, before handover, transmits a Subscriber Station (SS) Basic Capability Request (SBC-REQ), and receives a SS Basic Capability Response (SBC-RSP) from the BST via the BSC. Then, the MS transmits a Ranging Request (RNG-REQ) to the BST, and receives a Ranging Response (RNG-RSP) from the BST. During the handover, the MS transmits a Registration Request (REG-REQ) to the BST, and receives a Registration Response from the BST to establish the connection between the MS and the BST.

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.
