SOLUTION: A method includes tracking average user throughput or the like for every user that is serviced; determining a potential schedule set responsive to user requirements responsive to minimum rate guarantee for data flows and maximum tolerable delay and jitter guarantees for voice flows; with multiple flows for each user, first determining contending flow for each user responsive to aggregate rate feedback; obtaining search space for the user requirements of rate, delay and jitter responsive to corresponding optimizing strategies; determining individual rate, delay and jitter related schedules providing maximum incremental or marginal utility; and calculating final schedule of users on channels providing maximum incremental or marginal utility among parameter specific schedules from the determining step.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a data replication technique for providing erasure encoded replication of large data sets over a geographically distributed replica set. SOLUTION: The technique utilizes a multicast tree to store, forward, and erasure encode the data set. The erasure encoding of data may be performed at various locations within the multicast tree, including the source, intermediate nodes, and destination nodes. In one embodiment, the system comprises a source node for storing the original data set, a plurality of intermediate nodes, and a plurality of leaf nodes for storing the unique replica fragments. The nodes are configured as a multicast tree to convert the original data into the unique replica fragments by performing distributed erasure encoding at a plurality of levels of the multicast tree.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accomplish a call admission control method and device extremely suitable for a radio system providing real-time services on a shared downlink. SOLUTION: A call admission control technique takes into account both multiplexing and a multi-user diversity gain. The multi-user diversity gain is accurately determined by measuring resource allocation for each user so as to conveniently maximize not only a location dependent resource availability restriction but also a user accommodation capability under the quality of service (QoS). In a further embodiment, the call approval control technique is combined with delay-based scheduling effectively balancing system efficiency (channel usage rate) and a user expected value (e.g., QoS). A system realizing described call admission control and scheduling technique is capable of achieving conveniently efficient real-time services and keeps robustness for different loads varied by system dynamics and/or user mobility.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a detecting system and a detecting method employing a serial Monte Carlo technique in a multiple input and multiple output system (MIMO). SOLUTION: In the detecting system and its detecting method, a Monte Carlo sample weighted with respect to the establishment distribution of a first symbol component of a modified symbol and another Monte Carlo sample weighted with respect to the establishment distribution of a second symbol component are sampled separately to estimate the value of probability thereafter. According to this method, the number of symbol hypothesises and complexity on the computation in the system are reduced. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To disclose a new compression and decompression (defrosting) architecture for performing fast matching during compression by advantageously using a plurality of parallel content addressable memories of different sizes. SOLUTION: This compression architecture is provided with two or three more content addressable memories 114, 116, 118 which have the different sizes each other, and are arranged so as to operate in parallel with respect to parts of the different sizes in an input stream 100, and a selection logic 120 for selecting one among coincident content addressable memories when the coincident entries of one or more than two are existent in the associative memories 114, 116, 118 so that one of the parts of the different sizes among the input streams 100 is replaced to a compressive expression for specifying the selected content addressable memory and the coincident entry in a compressive output stream 150.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a soft-input soft-output demodulation schemes for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels, based on the sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) framework under both stochastic and deterministic settings. SOLUTION: The stochastic SMC sampler generates MIMO symbol samples based on importance sampling and resampling techniques, while the deterministic SMC approach recursively performs exploration and selection steps in a greedy manner. By exploiting the artificial sequential structure of the existing simple Bell Labs Layered Space Time (BLAST) detection method based on nulling and cancellation, the proposed algorithms achieve an error probability performance that is orders of magnitude better than the traditional BLAST detection schemes while maintaining a low computational complexity. Performance is comparable with that of the sphere decoding algorithm, with a much lower complexity. Both the stochastic and deterministic SMC detectors can be employed as the first-stage demodulator in an iterative or turbo receiver in coded MIMO systems. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
