Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and an apparatus for a quick retransmission of signals in a communication system.SOLUTION: A transmitting terminal, transmits transmission signals in a form of packets to a receiving terminal, if the packet was intended for the receiving terminal, and the receiving terminal demodulates the packet. The receiving terminal then computes a quality metric of the packet, and compares the computed quality metric with a quality metric contained in the packet. If the quality metrics match, the packet is forwarded for further processing. If the quality metrics fail to match, the receiving terminal sends a request for retransmission of the packet. The transmitting terminal determines which packet needs to be retransmitted based on the request for retransmission. If delivery of the packet in accordance with the aforementioned description fails, retransmission in accordance with conventional sequence-number-based schemes, e.g., radio link protocol, is attempted.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a way to perform point-to-multipoint transmission using an adaptive or directional antenna while reducing an antenna array pattern distortion. SOLUTION: Generally, rather than transmitting a same waveform to two or more receivers, an information bearing signal is transformed into different decorrelated waveforms and each decorrelated waveform is transmitted to a different receiver. In one implementation, an information bearing signal is transformed into two decorrelated signals S 1 (t), S 2 (t), such that their cross-correlation or auto-correlation of the information bearing signal, is zero or very small. Such decorrelation may be achieved by sending a first signal to a first receiver 104, while sending a second signal with a radio frequency spectrum that is the spectrally inverted version of the first signal to a second receiver 106. In another implementation, a first signal is transmitted to the first receiver 104, and is also transmitted to the second receiver 106 with a time delay. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide theoretically advanced throughput against overall noise and interference environment. SOLUTION: An OCDMA transmission arrangement involves encoding both first and second nominally orthogonal polarization signals with a same long code, and transmitting the long-encoded first and second nominally orthogonal polarization signals from respective first and second transmission sources to at least one destination. A corresponding OCDMA demodulating arrangement demodulates the first and second nominally orthogonal polarization signals that were transmitted from respective first and second transmission sources after having been encoded with the same long code.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and an instrument for measuring channel condition information and reporting; in a high efficiency communications system. SOLUTION: A channel condition information (CSI) can be used by the communications system between a transmitting device and a receiving device for preparatory condition transmission. A group of subchannels, having no element in common, are assigned to a transmitting antenna, of which the source position of the transmitting device is decided. A pilot symbol is formed in a subset of a subchannel having no elements in common and is transmitted. When the receiving device receives the transmitted pilot symbol, it decides CSI for the subchannel having no elements in common, which has reported the pilot symbol. The amount of information required for reporting to CSI on a reverse link can be further minimized via a compression technology and a resource allocation technology. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

Abstract:
Techniques are provided which may be implemented in various methods apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture for use by a device that is operable in a plurality of modes including 'higher power mode' and a 'lower power mode'. A timing circuit may be set based at least in part on a phase value obtained from a signal from a ground based transmitter and operation of the device may be selectively transitioned to a lower power mode wherein the device uses the timing circuit. In certain example implementations operation of the device to the lower power mode may be selectively transition and based at least in part on a determination that one or more attribute values satisfy a profile test indicating that the electronic device is likely to be within a characterized environment and/or a determination that the electronic device is likely to be in a constrained motion state.
Abstract:
An air to ground communication system provides internet access to aircraft from ground based stations. The air to ground system shares spectrum with uplink portions of a satellite communication spectrum. Interference mitigation techniques are employed to avoid interference between the ground based communications and satellite communications. Fade mitigation techniques are employed to provide communication to aircraft at low angles of elevation in the presence of rain.
