Abstract:
When a resource of limited capacity is shared by several users, it is possible for the usage rates of the users to exceed the resource's capacity, thereby causing an overload condition. In a system or method according to an embodiment of the invention, at least some of the users have a set of persistence vectors. When an overload condition is detected, the usage rate of at least one of these users is changed, at least in part according to the user's set of persistence vectors.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for admission control in a communication system. An Access Network (AN) element determines available resources. When available resources are sufficient to support the requirements of a requested application flow, the AN admits the application flow. The AN periodically, and on trigger events, updates a measure of available resources. The admission control may operate in coordination with a scheduler applying a compensation factor to each flow type, and a compensation factor for aggregate flows of a given user.

Abstract:
Techniques to reduce transmit power required for transmission of messages from an access terminal to reduce interference to transmissions from other access terminals. In one aspect, messages to be transmitted are defined and/or coded such that they may be detected at different received signal qualities. The codewords may be defined having different distances to their nearest codewords. In another aspect, messages to be transmitted are assigned to different points in a signal constellation, with the points being located such that they may be received at different signal qualities. Codewords that may be received at a lower signal quality may be assigned to messages more likely to be transmitted at higher transmit power levels (e.g., when the access terminal is located further away) or to more frequently transmitted messages.

Abstract:
A network entity includes a processor configured to regulate the data rate of transmissions over a wireless channel from a base station to a subscriber station based on feedback from the subscriber station, the feedback relating to the wireless channel conditions, the processor being further configured to determine a substitute data rate for one or more transmissions over the wireless channel.
