Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel and improved method describing combining of signals in a high-rate wireless communication system. SOLUTION: Reverse link busy bits are independently generated by each base station and indicative of whether the transmitting base station has reached a reverse link capacity limit. A remote station combines multipath components of the reverse link busy bits from each of the transmitting base stations in its Active Set and in response transmits a reverse link signal only when all of the reverse link busy bits indicate that the base stations in the remote stations Active Set have reverse link capacity. The remote station weights the reverse link busy signals in accordance with a signal strength of the base station transmitting the busy signal and determines whether to transmit based on the weighted sum of the busy signals.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for adaptive server selection in a wireless communication. SOLUTION: An access terminal may be configured to determine a forward link quality metric associated with each of a plurality of sectors serviced by a plurality of access points; assign credits to each sector in relation to the forward link quality metric; and change a data source control (DSC) value if the credits accumulated for a non-serving sector at a DSC change boundary is greater than a predetermined threshold, where the non-serving sector and the serving sector for the access terminal belong to different cells. The access terminal may be further configured to change a data rate control (DRC) cover in accordance with the DSC change. The use of DSC may provide an early indication of handoff, thereby allowing the service outage associated with server switching to be substantially reduced. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To properly distribute utilizable capacitance of resources that can be utilized among users, relating to a system containing the resources shared by a plurality of users. SOLUTION: The system comprises a resource with capacitance measurement and a plurality of users, each of which comprises a usage rate, a set of persistence vectors, and a set of available rate. The use of the resource by each of the plurality of users is determined at least partially by the use rate of the user, each usage rate of the plurality of users is selected from among at least the set of available rate of the user, and the selection is determined at least partially by one of the sets of the persistence vectors.

Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to methods and systems for providing adaptive server selection in wireless communications. In an embodiment, an access terminal is configured to determine a forward link quality metric associated with each of a plurality of sectors serviced by a plurality of access points; assign credits to each sector in relation to the forward link quality metric; and change a data source control (DSC) value if the credits accumulated for a non-serving sector at a DSC change boundary is greater than a predetermined threshold, where the non-serving sector and the serving sector for the AT belong to different cells. The access terminal is further configured to change a data rate control (DRC) cover in accordance with the DSC change. The use of DSC provides an early indication of handoff, thereby allowing the service outage associated with server switching to be substantially reduced. A method for handoff is further disclosed using DSC as early indication of handoff, which also trigger multitasking forward traffic for the access terminal to all access points.
Abstract:
In a system including a resource (100) which is shared among a number of users, it is difficult to distribute the available capacity of the resources fairly among the users and still maximize resource utilization. Additionally, it is desirable to allow at least some of the control over usage rates to remain with the users, while at the same time avoiding situations where the resource is overloaded. A system and method are disclosed wherein usage rates are selected from among a set of available rates according to a set of persistence vectors.
