Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a server-less peer-to-peer data network system for content transfer between wireless devices.SOLUTION: The system includes: a first wireless device having a first address and content; and a second wireless device. The first wireless device transmits a message including the first address via a first service. The second wireless device receives the message from the first wireless device, establishes a communication path to the first address via a second service, and receives the content from the first wireless device. The method includes transmitting of a message from the first wireless device to the second wireless device via the first service, wherein the message includes the first address. The method further includes: establishing of a communication path to the first address via the second service by the second wireless device; and receiving of the content from the first wireless device after the message is received from the first wireless device.
Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide for methods and systems for monitoring a paging channel. In one aspect, a method for monitoring a paging channel includes monitoring a paging channel for a page message at scheduled paging slots, determining that an error has occurred at a given paging slot, and monitoring the paging channel for a re-page message at at least one scheduled re-paging slot, where the re-paging slots occur after the given paging slot but before the next scheduled paging slot. In another aspect, a method for monitoring a paging channel includes monitoring a first one of a plurality of paging channels for a page message at scheduled paging slots, determining that an error has occurred at a given paging slot, and monitoring at least a second one of the plurality of paging channels for the page message.
Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate mitigating a hidden node condition in a wireless mesh network wherein nodes utilize a request-to-send/clear-to-send (RTS/CTS) protocol in conjunction with an asynchronous hybrid automatic repeat request protocol. For instance, a node may contend for a set of subcarriers by sending an RTS signal over the desired subcarriers, and may receive a CTS signal over the contended subcarriers, wherein the CTS signal indicates which subcarriers the node may transmit data over. If another node has won the contention for a particular subcarrier, requesting node may adjust a power level at which it transmits an RTS or a data packet in order to permit the requesting node to utilize the subcarrier without interfering with the winning node.
Abstract:
A method for maintaining a fingerprint for a wireless network (104) is provided. A first fingerprint is stored at a wireless communications device (102). The first fingerprint identifies a location (B) corresponding to a first communications network based on one or more reference signals from a second communications network. When the wireless communications device (102) is within the location (B), a second fingerprint is determined based on a current measurement by the wireless communication device (102) of the one or more reference signals. Then the first fingerprint is modified based on the second fingerprint.
Abstract:
Method and transmitting frames to an access terminal during handoff, comprising identifying a first plurality of frames with a first route identifier, identifying a second plurality of frames with a second route identifier, and transmitting said frames over a wireless link according to the route identifier.
Abstract:
An auction bidding system is provided. The system allows media content providers, such as advertisers, to define bidding constraints for a targeted audience and bid on wireless device assets, such as wireless device memory, application, ringtone, wallpaper and the like, if a biddable wireless device asset is defined. Additionally, the system provides to wireless device users with an option to participate in the allocation of their respective wireless device assets, such as memory, application, ringtone, wallpaper and the like and define conditions, such as content type, time period, and the like, which is to be met in order for the allocation of the wireless device asset to occur. In one or more aspects, wireless device users may be compensated in some form based on their willingness to opt-in to the asset allocation plan.
Abstract:
A mobile wireless terminal (MWT) receives IP packets destined for a ground network in a predetermined sequence order. The MWT fragments each of the IP packets into many smaller packet fragments, appends identifying information to each of the packet fragments, and transmits the packet fragments in parallel with one another over concurrently operating satellite channels. A receiving station receives the packet fragments transmitted by the MWT. The receiving station forwards the received packet fragments to a ground controller over a network connection, based on the identifying information appended to the packet fragments. The ground controller combines the packet fragments into reconstructed IP packets based on the identifying information appended to the fragments. The ground controller also sequences the reconstructed IP packets in the predetermined sequence order based on the identifying information. The ground controller forwards the reconstructed IP packets in the correct sequence order to the destination ground network. The same sequence of events occur in the opposite direction as well i.e., from the ground controller to the MWT.
