Abstract:
The present invention integrates resource allocation between time division duplex (TDD) and frequency division duplex (FDD) in wireless communication systems (200). A radio network controller (RNC) (206, 210) receives a radio access bearer (RAB) request from a core network or a wireless receive/transmit unit. The RNC utilizes a TDD-FDD selector (204, 208) to assign radio resources in response to the request. The TDD-FDD selector evaluates various parameters regarding the received RAB request and determines whether it is preferable to assign TDD resources or FDD resources and whether such resources are currently available. Once resources are assigned, system conditions are evaluated to determine whether optimizations may be made to a current resource allocation.
Abstract:
A wireless LAN (WLAN) system for communications among a plurality of users within a basic service system or cell comprising a switching access point (SAP) for transmitting and receiving point-to-multipoint communications to and from the users and a plurality of user terminals, each of which is assigned to a part available in the switching access point and defining a unique combination of a carrier frequency and a spatial beam for isolating communications among the users to prevent collisions; wherein said assignment of frequencies is not permanent and instead use is made of a dynamic or pseudo-random carrier assignment in which received request-to-send signals from the users in a shared carrier is replied to with clear to send signals from the SAP indicating the carrier that can be used for transmission.
Abstract:
A correct escape mechanism is determined according to interference type. Transmission is arranged so that interference may be measured at all time slots as needed to compute a measure of variance in interference in time slots (45). If the variance is above a predetermined value, time division duplex escape mechanisms are employed (62, 322). If the variance is below a predetermined value, appropriate escape mechanisms are employed depending on whether the escape mechanism is being implemented during an uplink or downlink. Interference causing FDD WTUs may be handed over to carrier bands to control interference experienced by TDD users (64, 324).

Abstract:
A method and wireless communication system may be used for transferring management information. An access point (AP) may transmit a management information base (MIB) information request including a category field and an action details field to a wireless transmit/receive (WTRU). In response to receiving the information request, the WTRU may determine whether or not to provide management information to the AP. When the WTRU provides management information to the AP, the WTRU may compile management information stored in a MIB located in the WTRU and transmit a MIB information report to the AP. The MIB may list a plurality of tables containing information associated with radio resource management (RRM) and at least one table containing physical layer measurements. The AP may include a MIB for storing MIB information of the WTRU. The AP may transmit the stored MIB information of the WTRU in response to a request.

Abstract:
A method and system is disclosed for providing intelligent remote access to wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs). A translator is provided in base stations so that system controllers may issue application level network management protocol messages to base stations. The messages are transmitted by the translator to a medium access control (MAC) messaging protocol and forwarded to WTRUs. Information provided by WTRUs to base stations is translated from a MAC protocol to an application level network management protocol so that the information may be accessed by system controllers using application level network management protocols.

Abstract:
A wireless communication system for transferring management information (WTRU) is provided. A system comprises at least one access point (AP) including a first management entity and a second management entity; and at least one wireless transmit/receive unit WTRU including a third management entity and a fourth management entity. AP transmits WTRU frame message requesting data base MIB information including category field and an action details field. In response to the frame operation WTRU determines whether or not to provide management information to the AP. When the WTRU provides management information to the AP, the WTRU compiles management information stored in a MIB located in the WTRU and transmits a MIB information report action frame to the AP.
