Abstract:
A space-time coding method is proposed, in which data streams are subject to orthogonal transformation before the coding. Combinations with multicarrier and multicode transmission, and with adaptive channel coding are also described.
Abstract:
Communication system for transmitting data packets via a plurality of virtual wireless communication links established between a base station and a plurality of operable mobile stations, the communication links having a variable transmission capacity and wherein messages for a requirement-oriented data transmission are transmitted on a plurality of communication links or channels within three types of control data packets. Said control data packets contain messages grouped according to their importance, allowing an efficient error treatment. The partitioning of messages into groups further allows an increase of the flexibility and efficiency of a data transmission, since only necessary control information is transmitted and a direct decoding of received control data packets becomes possible without a detour via a higher level of a used communication model.

Abstract:
Method of arranging a cellular radio network in a geographical area which is already covered by an existing cellular radio network, wherein cell clusters of the cellular radio network to be introduced and using a specific transmission frequency are located in areas determined by connecting at least two cells of the existing cellular radio network using the specific transmission frequency, and wherein the cell clusters are arranged such that they do not overlap with the cells of the existing cellular radio network. The cell clusters of the introduced cellular radio network may be adjusted by reducing the cell size of cell clusters of the introduced cellular radio network, and by introducing new cells into cell clusters of the introduced cellular radio network. The invention allows to reuse frequencies of an existing cellular radio network by an introduced cellular radio network in the same geographical area.
Abstract:
A communication system that supports multiple modulation and channel coding schemes selects an optimum RF link by measuring link quality parameters, such as C/I ratio. All of the available RF links are characterized based on the measured link quality parameters by calculating mean values and variances of the parameters. Based on the characterization of the RF link, user quality values, such as user data throughput and speech quality values, are estimated. The communication system selects the RF link that provides the best user quality value.

Abstract:
The system uses time slots of a wireless channel for data communications over each link (C1-Cm). Control data packets of a first type (S1) are transferred from the base station (B) via each link to each operating mobile station (M1-Mn) and contain information about the division of the channel into time slots. Control packets of a second type (S21-S24) are transmitted over each link to control the link. Control packets of a third type (S3) contain useful data.
