Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an access terminal for evaluating qualities of the available wireless broadcast channels that carry contents to be selected, and selects the best source of contents from among the available wireless broadcast channels, based upon the qualities. SOLUTION: An access terminal in a wireless multiple-access network monitors multiple broadcast soft handoff groups simultaneously in order to select the best logical broadcast channels to decode them based upon broadcast contents selected by a user of the access terminal. When an access terminal is in a traffic state, the access terminal decodes one or more broadcast channels by decoding a unicast channel from a traffic server during one time slot and then by decoding a broadcast channel from a broadcast server during another time slot.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and a method for reliably broadcasting content to a plurality of users and facilitating distribution of parts of the broadcast content that either were not received by particular users, or were received with errors. SOLUTION: The wireless communication system is configured to broadcast content from a content source to a plurality of user devices. The content source is configured to provide the content to a base station. The base station parses the content into a plurality of segments and associates sequential identifiers with each of the segments. The content is then broadcast to each of the user devices. An identifier of an alternative data source is also provided to the user devices. When a mobile station receives the segments, it examines the segment identifiers to identify missing segments. The segments are then retrieved from the alternative data source identified by the base station. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a user to access to a network, even if a use of communication resources reaches an over-congested level, due to the efficient use of the communication resources in a communication system under overloaded condition. SOLUTION: This method and device in the communication system for data communication comprises detecting a demand for opening a connection for the user for the data communication, selecting an open connection, releasing the selected open connection, and allocating to the user communication resources corresponding to a resource released, based on the release of the selected open connection. According to one embodiment, the selected open connection is in an idle open state. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Un procedimiento en un sistema de comunicación inalámbrica para comunicar datos desde una estación base a una unidad móvil (202) a varias velocidades de transferencia de datos, comprendiendo dicho procedimiento: calcular un promedio variable de dichas velocidades de transferencia de datos; comprobar una velocidad soportable de datos para recibir datos por dicha unidad móvil (202), midiendo una calidad de señal de un canal de datos entre dicha estación base y dicha unidad móvil (202), siendo la velocidad soportable de datos una velocidad máxima de datos a la cual la calidad de señal medida del canal pueda brindar soporte; y transmitir a dicha estación base una solicitud de velocidad máxima de datos o una solicitud de datos nulos para mantener dicho promedio variable de dichas velocidades de transferencia de datos dentro de una gama especificada.
Abstract:
In one disclosed embodiment, communication between a mobile unit and a base station is performed at a data transfer rate selected from, for example, a finite set of HDR data transfer rates. Meanwhile, the mobile unit continually computes a moving average of the data transfer rates. The mobile unit also ascertains a supportable data rate for receiving data. The supportable data rate can be selected from a finite set of HDR data transfer rates. In order to maintain the moving average of the data transfer rate within a specified range, the mobile unit transmits maximum data rate requests or null data requests to the base station. The maximum data rates requested by the mobile unit are equal to or lower than the supportable data rate.
